The Latin Vulgate VUL
New King James Version NKJV
1 et vidi quod aperuisset agnus unum de septem signaculis et audivi unum de quattuor animalibus dicentem tamquam vocem tonitrui veni
1
Now I saw when the Lamb opened one of the seals; and I heard one of the four living creatures saying with a voice like thunder, "Come and see."
2 et vidi et ecce equus albus et qui sedebat super illum habebat arcum et data est ei corona et exivit vincens ut vinceret
2
And I looked, and behold, a white horse. He who sat on it had a bow; and a crown was given to him, and he went out conquering and to conquer.
3 et cum aperuisset sigillum secundum audivi secundum animal dicens veni
3
When He opened the second seal, I heard the second living creature saying, "Come and see."
4 et exivit alius equus rufus et qui sedebat super illum datum est ei ut sumeret pacem de terra et ut invicem se interficiant et datus est illi gladius magnus
4
Another horse, fiery red, went out. And it was granted to the one who sat on it to take peace from the earth, and that people should kill one another; and there was given to him a great sword.
5 et cum aperuisset sigillum tertium audivi tertium animal dicens veni et vidi et ecce equus niger et qui sedebat super eum habebat stateram in manu sua
5
When He opened the third seal, I heard the third living creature say, "Come and see." So I looked, and behold, a black horse, and he who sat on it had a pair of scales in his hand.
6 et audivi tamquam vocem in medio quattuor animalium dicentem bilibris tritici denario et tres bilibres hordei denario et vinum et oleum ne laeseris
6
And I heard a voice in the midst of the four living creatures saying, "A quart of wheat for a denarius, and three quarts of barley for a denarius; and do not harm the oil and the wine."
7 et cum aperuisset sigillum quartum audivi vocem quarti animalis dicentis veni et vidi
7
When He opened the fourth seal, I heard the voice of the fourth living creature saying, "Come and see."
8 et ecce equus pallidus et qui sedebat desuper nomen illi Mors et inferus sequebatur eum et data est illi potestas super quattuor partes terrae interficere gladio fame et morte et bestiis terrae
8
So I looked, and behold, a pale horse. And the name of him who sat on it was Death, and Hades followed with him. And power was given to them over a fourth of the earth, to kill with sword, with hunger, with death, and by the beasts of the earth.
9 et cum aperuisset quintum sigillum vidi subtus altare animas interfectorum propter verbum Dei et propter testimonium quod habebant
9
When He opened the fifth seal, I saw under the altar the souls of those who had been slain for the word of God and for the testimony which they held.
10 et clamabant voce magna dicentes usquequo Domine sanctus et verus non iudicas et vindicas sanguinem nostrum de his qui habitant in terra
10
And they cried with a loud voice, saying, "How long, O Lord, holy and true, until You judge and avenge our blood on those who dwell on the earth?"
11 et datae sunt illis singulae stolae albae et dictum est illis ut requiescerent tempus adhuc modicum donec impleantur conservi eorum et fratres eorum qui interficiendi sunt sicut et illi
11
Then a white robe was given to each of them; and it was said to them that they should rest a little while longer, until both the number of their fellow servants and their brethren, who would be killed as they were, was completed.
12 et vidi cum aperuisset sigillum sextum et terraemotus factus est magnus et sol factus est niger tamquam saccus cilicinus et luna tota facta est sicut sanguis
12
I looked when He opened the sixth seal, and behold, there was a great earthquake; and the sun became black as sackcloth of hair, and the moon became like blood.
13 et stellae caeli ceciderunt super terram sicut ficus mittit grossos suos cum vento magno movetur
13
And the stars of heaven fell to the earth, as a fig tree drops its late figs when it is shaken by a mighty wind.
14 et caelum recessit sicut liber involutus et omnis mons et insulae de locis suis motae sunt
14
Then the sky receded as a scroll when it is rolled up, and every mountain and island was moved out of its place.
15 et reges terrae et principes et tribuni et divites et fortes et omnis servus et liber absconderunt se in speluncis et petris montium
15
And the kings of the earth, the great men, the rich men, the commanders, the mighty men, every slave and every free man, hid themselves in the caves and in the rocks of the mountains,
16 et dicunt montibus et petris cadite super nos et abscondite nos a facie sedentis super thronum et ab ira agni
16
and said to the mountains and rocks, "Fall on us and hide us from the face of Him who sits on the throne and from the wrath of the Lamb!
17 quoniam venit dies magnus irae ipsorum et quis poterit stare
17
For the great day of His wrath has come, and who is able to stand?"
