7 When He opened the fourth seal, I heard the voice of the fourth living creature saying, “Come and see.” So 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, to kill with sword, with hunger, with death, and by the beasts of the earth.
