Revelation 6:2-4

J.B. Phillips New Testament

² I looked, and before my eyes was a white horse. Its rider carried a bow, and he was given a crown. He rode out conquering and bent on conquest.

The second rider: War

³ Then, when the Lamb broke the second seal, I heard the second living creature, cry, “Come out!”

⁴ And another horse came forth, red in colour. Its rider was given power to deprive the earth of peace, so that men should kill each other. A huge sword was put into his hand.
