12. When I saw the Lamb open the sixth seal, I looked and saw a great earthquake. The sun turned as dark as sackcloth, and the moon became as red as blood.
13. The stars in the sky fell to earth, just like figs shaken loose by a storm.
14. Then the sky was rolled up like a scroll, and all mountains and islands were moved from their places.
15. The kings of the earth, its famous people, and its military leaders hid in caves or behind rocks on the mountains. They hid there together with the rich and the powerful and with all the slaves and free people.
16. Then they shouted to the mountains and the rocks, “Fall on us! Hide us from the one who sits on the throne and from the anger of the Lamb.
17. That terrible day has come! God and the Lamb will show their anger, and who can face it?”
