< Revelation 6 >

1 I saw when the Lamb opened one of the seven seals, and I heard one of the four living creatures saying, as with a voice of thunder, "Come."
وَنَظَرْتُ لَمَّا فَتَحَ ٱلْخَرُوفُ وَاحِدًا مِنَ ٱلْخُتُومِ ٱلسَّبْعَةِ، وَسَمِعْتُ وَاحِدًا مِنَ ٱلْأَرْبَعَةِ ٱلْحَيَوَانَاتِ قَائِلًا كَصَوْتِ رَعْدٍ: «هَلُمَّ وَٱنْظُرْ!».١
2 And I looked, and suddenly there was a white horse, and he who sat on it had a bow. A crown was given to him, and he came forth conquering, and to conquer.
فَنَظَرْتُ، وَإِذَا فَرَسٌ أَبْيَضُ، وَٱلْجَالِسُ عَلَيْهِ مَعَهُ قَوْسٌ، وَقَدْ أُعْطِيَ إِكْلِيلًا، وَخَرَجَ غَالِبًا وَلِكَيْ يَغْلِبَ.٢
3 When he opened the second seal, I heard the second living creature saying, "Come."
وَلَمَّا فَتَحَ ٱلْخَتْمَ ٱلثَّانِيَ، سَمِعْتُ ٱلْحَيَوَانَ ٱلثَّانِيَ قَائِلًا: «هَلُمَّ وَٱنْظُرْ!»٣
4 Another came forth, a fiery red horse. To him who sat on it was given power to take peace from the earth, and that they should kill one another. There was given to him a great sword.
فَخَرَجَ فَرَسٌ آخَرُ أَحْمَرُ، وَلِلْجَالِسِ عَلَيْهِ أُعْطِيَ أَنْ يَنْزِعَ ٱلسَّلَامَ مِنَ ٱلْأَرْضِ، وَأَنْ يَقْتُلَ بَعْضُهُمْ بَعْضًا، وَأُعْطِيَ سَيْفًا عَظِيمًا.٤
5 When he opened the third seal, I heard the third living creature saying, "Come." And I saw, and suddenly there was a black horse and he who sat on it had a balance in his hand.
وَلَمَّا فَتَحَ ٱلْخَتْمَ ٱلثَّالِثَ، سَمِعْتُ ٱلْحَيَوَانَ ٱلثَّالِثَ قَائِلًا: «هَلُمَّ وَٱنْظُرْ!». فَنَظَرْتُ وَإِذَا فَرَسٌ أَسْوَدُ، وَٱلْجَالِسُ عَلَيْهِ مَعَهُ مِيزَانٌ فِي يَدِهِ.٥
6 I heard something like a voice in the midst of the four living creatures saying, "A choenix of wheat for a denarius, and three choenixes of barley for a denarius. Do not damage the oil and the wine."
وَسَمِعْتُ صَوْتًا فِي وَسَطِ ٱلْأَرْبَعَةِ ٱلْحَيَوَانَاتِ قَائِلًا: «ثُمْنِيَّةُ قَمْحٍ بِدِينَارٍ، وَثَلَاثُ ثَمَانِيِّ شَعِيرٍ بِدِينَارٍ. وَأَمَّا ٱلزَّيْتُ وَٱلْخَمْرُ فَلَا تَضُرَّهُمَا».٦
7 When he opened the fourth seal, I heard the fourth living creature saying, "Come."
وَلَمَّا فَتَحَ ٱلْخَتْمَ ٱلرَّابِعَ، سَمِعْتُ صَوْتَ ٱلْحَيَوَانِ ٱلرَّابِعِ قَائِلًا: «هَلُمَّ وَٱنْظُرْ!».٧
8 And I looked, and suddenly there was a pale horse, and he who sat on it, his name was Death. Hell followed with him. Authority over one fourth of the earth, to kill with the sword, with famine, with death, and by the wild animals of the earth was given to him. (Hadēs g86)
فَنَظَرْتُ وَإِذَا فَرَسٌ أَخْضَرُ، وَٱلْجَالِسُ عَلَيْهِ ٱسْمُهُ ٱلْمَوْتُ، وَٱلْهَاوِيَةُ تَتْبَعُهُ، وَأُعْطِيَا سُلْطَانًا عَلَى رُبْعِ ٱلْأَرْضِ أَنْ يَقْتُلَا بِٱلسَّيْفِ وَٱلْجُوعِ وَٱلْمَوْتِ وَبِوُحُوشِ ٱلْأَرْضِ. (Hadēs g86)٨
9 When he opened the fifth seal, I saw underneath the altar the souls of people who had been killed for the Word of God, and for the testimony which they had.
وَلَمَّا فَتَحَ ٱلْخَتْمَ ٱلْخَامِسَ، رَأَيْتُ تَحْتَ ٱلْمَذْبَحِ نُفُوسَ ٱلَّذِينَ قُتِلُوا مِنْ أَجْلِ كَلِمَةِ ٱللهِ، وَمِنْ أَجْلِ ٱلشَّهَادَةِ ٱلَّتِي كَانَتْ عِنْدَهُمْ،٩
10 They called out with a loud voice, saying, "How long, Master, the holy and true, until you judge and avenge our blood on those who dwell on the earth?"
وَصَرَخُوا بِصَوْتٍ عَظِيمٍ قَائِلِينَ: «حَتَّى مَتَى أَيُّهَا ٱلسَّيِّدُ ٱلْقُدُّوسُ وَٱلْحَقُّ، لَا تَقْضِي وَتَنْتَقِمُ لِدِمَائِنَا مِنَ ٱلسَّاكِنِينَ عَلَى ٱلْأَرْضِ؟»١٠
11 A long white robe was given to each of them. They were told that they should rest yet for a little longer, until their fellow servants and their brothers, who would also be killed even as they were, should complete their course.
فَأُعْطُوا كُلُّ وَاحِدٍ ثِيَابًا بِيضًا، وَقِيلَ لَهُمْ أَنْ يَسْتَرِيحُوا زَمَانًا يَسِيرًا أَيْضًا حَتَّى يَكْمَلَ ٱلْعَبِيدُ رُفَقَاؤُهُمْ، وَإِخْوَتُهُمْ أَيْضًا، ٱلْعَتِيدُونَ أَنْ يُقْتَلُوا مِثْلَهُمْ.١١
12 I saw when he opened the sixth seal, and there was a great earthquake. The sun became black as sackcloth made of hair, and the whole moon became as blood.
وَنَظَرْتُ لَمَّا فَتَحَ ٱلْخَتْمَ ٱلسَّادِسَ، وَإِذَا زَلْزَلَةٌ عَظِيمَةٌ حَدَثَتْ، وَٱلشَّمْسُ صَارَتْ سَوْدَاءَ كَمِسْحٍ مِنْ شَعْرٍ، وَٱلْقَمَرُ صَارَ كَٱلدَّمِ،١٢
13 The stars of the sky fell to the earth, like a fig tree dropping its unripe figs when it is shaken by a great wind.
وَنُجُومُ ٱلسَّمَاءِ سَقَطَتْ إِلَى ٱلْأَرْضِ كَمَا تَطْرَحُ شَجَرَةُ ٱلتِّينِ سُقَاطَهَا إِذَا هَزَّتْهَا رِيحٌ عَظِيمَةٌ.١٣
14 The sky was removed like a scroll when it is rolled up. Every mountain and island were moved out of their places.
وَٱلسَّمَاءُ ٱنْفَلَقَتْ كَدَرْجٍ مُلْتَفٍّ، وَكُلُّ جَبَلٍ وَجَزِيرَةٍ تَزَحْزَحَا مِنْ مَوْضِعِهِمَا.١٤
15 The kings of the earth, the princes, the commanding officers, the rich, the strong, and every slave and free person, hid themselves in the caves and in the rocks of the mountains.
وَمُلُوكُ ٱلْأَرْضِ وَٱلْعُظَمَاءُ وَٱلْأَغْنِيَاءُ وَٱلْأُمَرَاءُ وَٱلْأَقْوِيَاءُ وَكُلُّ عَبْدٍ وَكُلُّ حُرٍّ، أَخْفَوْا أَنْفُسَهُمْ فِي ٱلْمَغَايِرِ وَفِي صُخُورِ ٱلْجِبَالِ،١٥
16 They told the mountains and the rocks, "Fall on us, and hide us from the face of him who sits on the throne, and from the wrath of the Lamb,
وَهُمْ يَقُولُونَ لِلْجِبَالِ وَٱلصُّخُورِ: «ٱسْقُطِي عَلَيْنَا وَأَخْفِينَا عَنْ وَجْهِ ٱلْجَالِسِ عَلَى ٱلْعَرْشِ وَعَنْ غَضَبِ ٱلْخَرُوفِ،١٦
17 for the great day of their wrath has come; and who is able to stand?"
لِأَنَّهُ قَدْ جَاءَ يَوْمُ غَضَبِهِ ٱلْعَظِيمُ. وَمَنْ يَسْتَطِيعُ ٱلْوُقُوفَ؟».١٧
