Opening first seal

Revelation 6: 1 – 2

 

And I saw, how the Lamb opened the first of the seven seals,
and thereupon I heard one of the four living beings saying, with a voice like a thunderclap: Come!

And a crown was given to him, and he went forth conquering, and to conquer.

And I saw, and behold, a white horse, and he which sat on it, had a bow,

And I saw, how the Lamb opened the first of the seven seals,
and thereupon I heard one of the four living beings saying, with a voice like a thunderclap: Come!

En ik zag, en zie, een wit paard,
en die daarop zat, had een boog,

And a crown was given to him, and he went forth conquering, and to conquer.
