Then a vision came to me
I saw a door in heaven standing open
And the same voice
Which I had heard speaking to me before 
Loud as the call of a trumpet, said to me 
Come up to my side
And all at once I was in a trance 
And saw where a throne stood in heaven 
And one sat there enthroned
He who sat there bore 
The semblance of a jewel 
Jasper or sardius 
And there was a rainbow 
About the throne
Like a vision of emerald
Round it were twenty-four seats 
And on these sat twenty-four elders 
Clothed in white garments
With crowns of gold on their heads
Lightnings came out from the throne 
And mutterings, and thunders 
And before it burned seven lamps 
Which are the seven spirits of God
Facing it was a whole sea of glass, like crystal 
And in the midst, where the throne was
Round the throne itself, were four living figures
That had eyes everywhere to see 
Before them and behind them
The first figure was that of a lion 
The second that of an ox 
The third had a man's look 
And the fourth was that of an eagle in flight
Each of the four figures had six wings 
With eyes everywhere looking outwards and inwards 
Day and night they cried unceasingly 
Holy, holy, holy is the Lord God 
And now I saw that he who sat on the throne 
Carried in his right hand a scroll

Then, in my vision 
The Lamb broke open 
One of the seven seals 
And with that I heard one of the 
Four living figures say, in a voice like thunder 
Come and look
So I looked, and saw there a white horse 
Whose rider carried a bow 
A crown was given him
And he rode out victorious
And to win victory
And when he broke the second seal 
I heard the second figure say 
Come and look
And a second horse came out, fiery-red 
Whose rider was empowered to 
Take away all peace from the world 
Bidding men slay one another 
And a great sword was given to him
And when he broke the third seal 
I heard the third figure say
Come and look 
So I looked, and saw there a black horse 
Whose rider carried in his hand a pair of scales
I thought, too, I heard a voice 
That came from where the living figures were 
A silver piece, it said, for a quart of wheat 
A silver piece for three quarts of barley 
But do the wine and the oil no hurt
And when he broke the fourth seal 
I heard the voice of the fourth living figure say 
Come and look
So I looked, and saw there a cream-white horse 
Its rider was called Death
And Hell went at his bridle-rein 
He was allowed to have his way 
With all the four quarters of the world 
Killing men by the sword, by famine 
By plague, and through wild beasts 
That roam the earth
And when he broke the fifth seal 
I saw there, beneath the altar 
The souls of all who had been slain 
For love of God's word 
And of the truth they held
Crying out with a loud voice 
Sovereign Lord, the holy, the true 
How long now before thou wilt sit in judgement 
And exact vengeance for our blood 
From all those who dwell on earth
Whereupon a white robe was given 
To each of them, and they were bidden 
To take their rest a little while longer 
Until their number had been made up 
By those others, their brethren and fellow servants 
Who were to die as they had died
Then, in my vision, he broke the sixth seal 
And with that there was a great earthquake 
And the sun grew dark as sackcloth 
And the whole moon blood-red
The stars of heaven fell to earth 
Like unripe fruit shaken from a fig-tree 
When a high wind rocks it
The sky folded up like a scroll 
And disappeared 
No mountain, no island 
But was removed from its place
The kings of the world with their noblemen 
And their captains, men of wealth and of strength
All alike, slaves and free men 
Took shelter in caves and rock-fastnesses 
Among the hills
Fall on us, they said to the hills 
And the rocks, and hide us from 
The presence of him who sits on the throne 
And from the vengeance of the Lamb
Which of us can stand his ground 
Now that the great day 
The day of their vengeance, has come
Then he broke open the seventh seal; and 
For about half an hour 
There was silence in heaven
