Revelation 6:12 in Context — Revelation 6
10 Ils crièrent d’une voix forte, en disant: Jusques à quand, Maître saint et véritable, tardes-tu à juger, et à tirer vengeance de notre sang sur les habitants de la terre?
11 Une robe blanche fut donnée à chacun d’eux; et il leur fut dit de se tenir en repos quelque temps encore, jusqu’à ce que fût complet le nombre de leurs compagnons de service et de leurs frères qui devaient être mis à mort comme eux.
12 Je regardai, quand il ouvrit le sixième sceau; et il y eut un grand tremblement de terre, le soleil devint noir comme un sac de crin, la lune entière devint comme du sang,
13 et les étoiles du ciel tombèrent sur la terre, comme lorsqu’un figuier secoué par un vent violent jette ses figues vertes.
14 Le ciel se retira comme un livre qu’on roule; et toutes les montagnes et les îles furent remuées de leurs places.
