Next

And thus I saw the horses in the vision, and them that sat on them, having breastplates of fire, and of jacinth, and brimstone: and the heads of the horses [were] as the heads of lions; and out of their mouths issued fire and smoke and brimstone.

And {G2532} thus {G3779} I saw {G1492} the horses {G2462} in {G1722} the vision {G3706}, and {G2532} them that sat {G2521} on {G1909} them {G846}, having {G2192} breastplates {G2382} of fire {G4447}, and {G2532} of jacinth {G5191}, and {G2532} brimstone {G2306}: and {G2532} the heads {G2776} of the horses {G2462} were as {G5613} the heads {G2776} of lions {G3023}; and {G2532} out of {G1537} their {G846} mouths {G4750} issued {G1607} fire {G4442} and {G2532} smoke {G2586} and {G2532} brimstone {G2303}.

Here is how the horses looked in the vision: the riders had breastplates that were fire-red, iris-blue and sulfur-yellow; the horses’ heads were like lions’ heads; and from their mouths issued fire, smoke and sulfur.

Now the horses and riders in my vision looked like this: The riders had breastplates the colors of fire, sapphire, and sulfur. The heads of the horses were like the heads of lions, and out of their mouths proceeded fire, smoke, and sulfur.

And thus I saw the horses in the vision, and them that sat on them, having breastplates as of fire and of hyacinth and of brimstone: and the heads of the horses are as the heads of lions; and out of their mouths proceedeth fire and smoke and brimstone.
