CHAPTER 4
Revelation 4:1
1 After this I looked, and, behold, a door was opened in heaven: and the first
voice which I heard was as it were of a trumpet talking with me; which said,
Come up hither, and I will shew thee things which must be hereafter. Revelation
4:2
2 And immediately I was in the spirit: and, behold, a throne was set in heaven,
and one sat on the throne.
Revelation 4:3
3 And he that sat was to look upon like a jasper and a sardine stone: and there
was a rainbow round about the throne, in sight like unto an emerald. Revelation
4:4
4 And round about the throne were four and twenty seats: and upon the seats I
saw four and twenty elders sitting, clothed in white raiment; and they had on
their heads crowns of gold.
Revelation 4:5
5 And out of the throne proceeded lightnings and thunderings and voices: and
there were seven lamps of fire burning before the throne, which are the seven
Spirits of God.
Revelation 4:6
6 And before the throne there was a sea of glass like unto crystal: and in the
midst of the throne, and round about the throne, were four beasts full of
eyes before and behind.
Revelation 4:7
7 And the first beast was like a lion, and the second beast like a calf, and
the third beast had a face as a man, and the fourth beast was like a flying
eagle.
Revelation 4:8
8 And the four beasts had each of them six wings about him; and they were full
of eyes within: and they rest not day and night, saying, Holy, holy, holy, Lord
God Almighty, which was, and is, and is to come. # Revelation 4:9
9 And when those beasts give glory and honour and thanks to him that sat on the
throne, who  liveth for ever and ever, Revelation 4:10
10 The four and twenty elders fall down before him that sat on the throne, and
worship him that liveth for  ever and ever, and cast their crowns before the
throne, saying,
Revelation 4:11
11 Thou art worthy, O Lord, to receive glory and honour and power: for thou
hast created all things,  and for thy pleasure they are and were created.
CHAPTER 5
Revelation 5:1
1 And I saw in the right hand of him that sat on the throne a book written
within and on the backside, sealed  with seven seals. Revelation 5:2
2 And I saw a strong angel proclaiming with a loud voice, Who is worthy to open
the book, and  to loose the seals thereof? Revelation 5:3
3 And no man in heaven, nor in earth, neither under the earth, was able to open
the book,  neither to look thereon. Revelation 5:4
4 And I wept much, because no man was found worthy to open and to read the
book, neither  to look thereon.
Revelation 5:5
5 And one of the elders saith unto me, Weep not: behold, the Lion of the tribe
of Juda,  the Root of David, hath prevailed to open the book, and to loose the
seven seals thereof.
Revelation 5:6
6 And I beheld, and, lo, in the midst of the throne and of the four beasts, and
in the midst  of the elders, stood a Lamb as it had been slain, having seven
horns and seven eyes, which are the seven Spirits of God sent forth into all
the earth.
Revelation 5:7
7 And he came and took the book out of the right hand of him that sat upon the
throne.
Revelation 5:8
8 And when he had taken the book, the four beasts and four and twenty elders
fell down before the Lamb, having every one of them harps, and golden vials
full of odours, which are the prayers of saints. Revelation 5:9
9 And they sung a new song, saying, Thou art worthy to take the book, and to
open the seals thereof:  for thou wast slain, and hast redeemed us to God by
thy blood out of every kindred, and tongue, and people, and nation; Revelation
5:10
10 And hast made us unto our God kings and priests: and we shall reign on the
earth.
Revelation 5:11
11 And I beheld, and I heard the voice of many angels round about the throne
and the beasts and the elders:  and the number of them was ten thousand times
ten thousand, and thousands of thousands; Revelation 5:12
12 Saying with a loud voice, Worthy is the Lamb that was slain to receive
power, and riches, and wisdom,  and strength, and honour, and glory, and
blessing.
Revelation 5:13
13 And every creature which is in heaven, and on the earth, and under the
earth,  and such as are in the sea, and all that are in them, heard I saying,
Blessing, and honour, and glory, and power, be unto him that sitteth upon the
throne, and unto the Lamb for ever and ever. Revelation 5:14
14 And the four beasts said, Amen. And the four and twenty elders fell down and
worshipped him that liveth for ever and ever. CHAPTER 6
Revelation 6:1
1 And I saw when the Lamb opened one of the seals, and I heard, as it were the
noise of thunder,  one of the four beasts saying, Come and see. Revelation 6:2
2 And I saw, and behold a white horse: and he that sat on him had a bow; and a
crown was given unto him: and he went forth conquering, and to conquer.
Revelation 6:3
3 And when he had opened the second seal, I heard the second beast say, Come
and see.
Revelation 6:4
4 And there went out another horse that was red: and power was given to him
that sat thereon to take peace from the earth, and that they should kill one
another: and there was given unto him a great sword. Revelation 6:5
5 And when he had opened the third seal, I heard the third beast say, Come and
see. And  I beheld, and lo a black horse; and he that sat on him had a pair of
balances in his hand.
Revelation 6:6
6 And I heard a voice in the midst of the four beasts say, A measure of wheat
for a penny, and three  measures of barley for a penny; and see thou hurt not
the oil and the wine.
Revelation 6:7
7 And when he had opened the fourth seal, I heard the voice of the fourth beast
say, Come and see.
Revelation 6:8
8 And I looked, and behold a pale horse: and his name that sat on him was
Death,  and Hell followed with him. And power was given unto them over the
fourth part of the earth, to kill with sword, and with hunger, and with death,
and with the beasts of the earth. Revelation 6:9
9 And when he had opened the fifth seal, I saw under the altar the souls of
them that were slain for the word of God,  and for the testimony which they
held:
Revelation 6:10
10 And they cried with a loud voice, saying, How long, O Lord, holy and true,
dost thou not  judge and avenge our blood on them that dwell on the earth?
Revelation 6:11
11 And white robes were given unto every one of them; and it was said unto
them, that they should rest yet for a little season,  until their
fellowservants also and their brethren, that should be killed as they were,
should be fulfilled.
Revelation 6:12
12 And I beheld when he had opened the sixth seal, and, lo, there was a great
earthquake; and the sun  became black as sackcloth of hair, and the moon became
as blood;
Revelation 6:13
13 And the stars of heaven fell unto the earth, even as a fig tree casteth her
untimely figs, when she is shaken of  a mighty wind. Revelation 6:14
14 And the heaven departed as a scroll when it is rolled together; and every
mountain and island were moved out of  their places. Revelation 6:15
15 And the kings of the earth, and the great men, and the rich men, and the
chief captains, and the mighty men, and every  bondman, and every free man, hid
themselves in the dens and in the rocks of the mountains; Revelation 6:16
16 And said to the mountains and rocks, Fall on us, and hide us from the face 
of him that sitteth on the throne, and from the wrath of the Lamb: Revelation
6:17
17 For the great day of his wrath is come; and who shall be able to stand?
