Revelation 6:11-13
New Matthew Bible
11 And long white garments were given to every one of them. And it was said to them that they should rest for a little season, until the number of their fellows and brethren, and of those who would be killed as they were, was fulfilled.
12 And I looked when he opened the sixth seal, and lo, there was a great earthquake, and the sun was as black as sackcloth made of hair. And the moon became even as blood; 13 and the stars of heaven fell to the earth, even as a fig tree casts from her her figs when she is shaken by a mighty wind.
