Revelation of John 6:6-8

6 And I heard what seemed to be a voice in the midst of the four living creatures, saying, ^c“A quart ^{▼▼Greek choinix, a dry measure equal to about a quart} of wheat for a denarius, ^{▼▼A denarius was a day’s wage for a laborer} and three quarts of barley for a denarius, and ^fdo not harm the oil and wine!”

7 When he opened the fourth seal, I heard the voice of ^gthe fourth living creature say, “Come!” 8 And I looked, and behold, ^ha pale horse! And its rider’s name was Death, and Hades followed him. And they were given authority over a fourth of the earth, to kill ⁱwith sword and with famine and with pestilence and ^jby wild beasts of the earth.
