Revelation 6:11-13
1599 Geneva Bible
11 And long [a]white robes were given unto every one, and it was said unto them, that they should rest for a little season until their fellow servants, and their brethren that should be killed even as they were, were [b]fulfilled.
12 [c]And I beheld when he had opened the sixth seal, and lo, there was a great earthquake, and the Sun was as black as [d]sackcloth of hair, and the Moon was like blood.
13 And the stars of heaven fell unto the earth, as a fig-tree casteth her green figs, when it is shaken of a mighty wind.

- Revelation 6:11 As before 3:4.
- Revelation 6:11 Until their number be fulfilled.
- Revelation 6:12 The sixth sign, the narration whereof hath two parts, the sign, and the event. The sign is, that the earth, heaven, and the things that are in them for the horror of the sins of the world upon those most heavy foretellings of God, and complaints of the Saints shall be shaken most vehemently, trembling in horrible manner, and losing their light in this verse: falling from on high, verse 13, withdrawing themselves and flying away for the greatness of the trouble, verse 14. So boldly do all creatures depend upon the will of God, and content themselves in his glory.
- Revelation 6:12 So they called in old time those woven works that were of hair.
