Revelation 6:6-8
Legacy Standard Bible
6 And I heard something like a voice in the midst of the (A)four living creatures saying, “One [a]choinix of wheat for one [b]denarius, and three [c]choinix of barley for one [d]denarius, and (B)do not harm the oil and the wine.”
7 And when He opened the fourth seal, I heard the voice of the (C)fourth living creature saying, “Come.” 8 Then I looked, and behold, a (D)pale horse; and he who sits on it had the name (E)Death, and (F)Hades was following with him. Authority was given to them over a fourth of the earth, (G)to kill with sword and with famine and with [e]pestilence and by the wild beasts of the earth.
