8 aSo 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, bto kill with sword, with hunger, with death, cand by the beasts of the earth.

9 When He opened the fifth seal, I saw under athe altar bthe souls of those who had been slain cfor the word of God and for dthe testimony which they held.
10 And they cried with a loud voice, saying, a“How long, O Lord, bholy and true, cuntil You judge and avenge our blood on those who dwell on the earth?”
11 Then a awhite robe was given to each of them; and it was said to them bthat 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.
