Revelation 6 (NTE)
Four Horsemen
โ6 The next thing I saw was this. When the lamb had opened one of the seven seals, I heard one of the four living creatures say in a voice like thunder, โCome!โ 2 And, as I watched, there was a white horse. Its rider was holding a bow. He was given a crown, and he went off winning victories, and to win more of them.
3 When the lamb opened the second seal, I heard the second living creature say, โCome!โ 4 And another horse went out, fiery red this time. Its rider was given permission to take peace away from the earth, so that people would kill one another. He was given a great sword.
5 When the lamb opened the third seal, I heard the third living creature say, โCome!โ As I watched, there was a black horse. Its rider held a pair of scales in his hand. 6 I heard something like a voice coming from the midst of the four living creatures. โA quart of wheat for a denarius!โ said the voice. โAnd three quarts of barley for a denarius! But donโt ruin the oil and the wine!โ
7 When the lamb opened the fourth seal, I heard the voice of the fourth living creature say, โCome!โ 8 As I looked, there was a pale horse, and its riderโs name was Death. Hades followed along behind him. They were given authority over a quarter of the earth, to kill with the sword, and with famine, and with death, and by means of earthโs wild animals.โ
Malachi 1:11(KJV)
โ11 For from the rising of the sun even unto the going down of the same my name shall be great among the Gentiles; and in every place incense shall be offered unto my name, and a pure offering: for my name shall be great among the heathen, saith the Lord of hosts.โ
