The Lamb opened the second seal. Then I heard the second living thing say, “Come!”
So they all went to the tomb and made it safe from thieves. They did this by sealing the stone in the entrance and putting soldiers there to guard it.
The first living thing was like a lion. The second was like a cow. The third had a face like a man. The fourth was like a flying eagle.
Then I watched while the Lamb opened the first of the seven seals. I heard one of the four living things speak with a voice like thunder. It said, “Come!”
The Lamb opened the seventh seal. Then there was silence in heaven for about half an hour.
