3 When he opened the second seal, I heard the second living creature call out, ‘Come!’^{* 4}And out came^* another horse, bright red; its rider was permitted to take peace from the earth, so that people would slaughter one another; and he was given a great sword.

5 When he opened the third seal, I heard the third living creature call out, ‘Come!’^* I looked, and there was a black horse! Its rider held a pair of scales in his hand, ⁶and I heard what seemed to be a voice in the midst of the four living creatures saying, ‘A quart of wheat for a day’s pay,^* and three quarts of barley for a day’s pay,^* but do not damage the olive oil and the wine!’
