< Revelation 6 >

1 I looked when the Lamb opened one of the seven seals, and I heard one of the four living creatures say in a voice that sounded like thunder, “Come!”
羊羔揭开七封印的第一个,我看着,然后听见四个活物中的一个发出雷鸣之声说:“来吧!”
2 I looked and there was a white horse. Its rider held a bow, and he was given a crown. He came out as a conqueror in order to conquer.
我看过去,见有一匹白马;骑马之人拿着弓,有冠冕赐给他,然后他骑着马离开,以便他可以获胜。
3 When the Lamb opened the second seal, I heard the second living creature say, “Come!”
然后羊羔揭开第二个封印,我听见第二个活物说:“来吧!”
4 Then another horse came out—fiery red. To its rider was given permission to take peace away from the earth, so that its people would slaughter one another. This rider was given a huge sword.
一匹红马出来,骑马之人获得一把大刀,还有从地上夺去和平的权力,让人们互相残杀。
5 When the Lamb opened the third seal, I heard the third living creature say, “Come!” I saw a black horse, and its rider held a pair of scales in his hand.
羊羔揭开了第三个封印,我听见第三个活物说:“来吧!”我看过去,见到一匹黑马;骑马之人手中拿着天平。
6 I heard what seemed to be a voice among the four living creatures say, “A choenix of wheat for one denarius, and three choenices of barley for a denarius. But do not harm the oil and the wine.”
我听见四个活物中仿佛有声音说:“两磅小麦卖一天的工资,三磅大麦卖的价格相同,但油和酒也不可糟蹋。”
7 When the Lamb opened the fourth seal, I heard the voice of the fourth living creature say, “Come!”
第四个封印打开的时候,我听见第四个活物说:“来吧!”
8 Then I saw a pale horse. The rider on it was named Death, and Hades was following him. They were given authority over one-fourth of the earth, to kill with the sword, with famine and disease, and with the wild animals of the earth. (Hadēs g86)
我看过去,看到一匹灰马;那骑士名为“死亡”,哈迪斯跟着他。他们获得的权力可以管辖地上的四分之一,用刀剑、饥荒、瘟疫和野兽去杀人。 (Hadēs g86)
9 When the Lamb opened the fifth seal, I saw under the altar the souls of those who had been killed because of the word of God and the testimony which they held.
羊羔揭开第五个封印时,我看见祭坛下方,有人因献身上帝之道和他们的虔诚见证而被杀。
10 They cried out with a loud voice, “How long, Ruler over all, holy and true, until you judge those who live on the earth, and until you avenge our blood?”
他们大声喊叫说:“圣洁真实的主啊!还要多久,你才能审判那些住在地上、泼洒我们血的人?”
11 Then each of them was given a white robe, and they were told that they should wait a little longer until the full number of their fellow servants and their brothers and sisters was reached who were to be killed, just as they had been killed.
每个人都被赐予一个白袍,告诉他们要再等待一会儿,直到像他们一样被杀害的信徒和兄弟数量凑齐为止。
12 When the Lamb opened the sixth seal, I watched and there was a great earthquake. The sun became as black as sackcloth, and the full moon became like blood.
羊羔揭开第六个封印,发生了强烈的地震。太阳变黑,如粗糙的毛布;整个月亮变成血红;
13 The stars in the heavens fell to the earth, just as a fig tree drops its unripe fruit when shaken by a stormy wind.
天上的星辰坠落到地上,如无花果树被大风晃动,落下未成熟的果子。
14 The sky vanished like a scroll that was being rolled up. Every mountain and island was moved out of its place.
天空退却如一本书卷起来;山峦和岛屿从原处移动。
15 Then the kings of the earth and the important people, and the generals, and the rich, and the powerful, and everyone else, slave and free, hid in caves and among the rocks of the mountains.
地上的君王、领袖、富人、权贵和所有奴隶或自由之人,都藏在洞穴以及山峦的岩石之中。
16 They said to the mountains and to the rocks, “Fall on us! Hide us from the face of the one who is seated on the throne and from the Lamb's wrath.
他们呼唤山岭和岩石,对它们说:“倒在我们身上吧!把我们藏起来,不要让坐在宝座上的那位看到,躲开羊羔的审判!
17 For the great day of their wrath has come. Who is able to stand?”
因为他们审判的可怕之日已经来到,谁能站立得住?”
