The fifth seal and the souls under the altar, which the speaker sees
말하는 이가 본 다섯째 인과 제단 아래의 영혼들
Revelation 6:9–11: the speaker (“I”) says, “When he opened the fifth seal, I saw underneath the altar the souls of those who had been killed for the Word of God, and for the testimony of the Lamb which they had. They cried with a loud voice, saying, ‘How long, Master, the holy and true, until you judge and avenge our blood on those who dwell on the earth?’ A long white robe was given to each of them. They were told that they should rest yet for a while, until their fellow servants and their brothers, who would also be killed even as they were, should complete their course.” The text gives the cry of 6:10 to the souls. Neither edition names who gives the robes or who speaks at 6:11; the Korean Revised Version gives the words as spoken, 아직 잠시 동안 쉬되 저희 동무 종들과 형제들도 자기처럼 죽임을 받아 그 수가 차기까지 하라 (rest yet a little while, until their fellow servants and brothers are killed as they were and the number is complete). At 6:9 the Korean reads 저희의 가진 증거 (the testimony which they had), with no word for “of the Lamb”.
