When the Lamb broke the fifth seal, I saw ^(C1)underneath the ^(C2)altar the ^(C3)souls of those who had been killed ^(C4)because of the word of God, and because of the ^(C5)testimony which they had maintained;

and they cried out with a loud voice, saying, "^(C1)How long, O ^(F1)(C2)Lord, ^(C3)holy and true, ^(F2)will You refrain from ^(C4)judging and avenging our blood on ^(C5)those who live on the earth?"

And a ^(C1)white robe was given to each of them; and they were told that they were to ^(C2)rest for a little while longer, ^(C3)until the number of their fellow servants and their brothers and sisters who were to be killed even as they had been, was ^(C4)completed also.
