Revelation 6:9 in Context — Revelation 6

7 E quando ele abriu o quarto selo, eu ouvi a voz do quarto animal dizendo: “Vem, e vê.”

8 E eu olhei, e eis um cavalo amarelo, e o que estava sentado sobre ele, seu nome [era] Morte; e o Xeol o seguia. E foi-lhes dada autoridade para matar a quarta [parte] da terra, com espada, com fome, com morte [por doença] , e com os animais ferozes da terra.

9 E quando ele abriu o quinto selo, eu vi debaixo do altar as almas dos que foram mortos por causa da palavra de Deus, e por causa do testemunho que tinham.

10 E clamavam com grande voz, dizendo: “Até quando, Santo e Verdadeiro Soberano, não julgas e vingas nosso sangue daqueles que habitam sobre a terra?”

11 E foram dados a cada um [deles] compridas roupas brancas; e foi-lhes dito que repousassem ainda um pouco de tempo, até que se completassem os seus companheiros de serviço e seus irmãos, que [ainda] viriam a ser mortos.
