Revelation 6:5

Καὶ ὅτε ἤνοιξεν τὴν σφραγῖδα τὴν τρίτην, ἤκουσα τοῦ τρίτου ζῴου λέγοντος, Ἔρχου καὶ ἴδε. Καὶ ἰδού, ἵππος μέλας, καὶ ὁ καθήμενος ἐπ' αὐτὸν ἔχων ζυγὸν ἐν τῇ χειρὶ αὐτοῦ.
Kai ote ēnoixen tēn sphragida tēn tritēn, ēkoysa toy tritoy zōoy legontos, Erchoy kai ide. Kai idoy, ippos melas, kai o kathēmenos ep' ayton echōn zygon en tē cheiri aytoy.
King James Version (KJV)

And when he had opened the third seal, I heard the third beast say, Come and see. And I beheld, and lo a black horse; and he that sat on him had a pair of balances in his hand.

Modern English

When the Lamb opened the third seal, I heard the third living creature say, Come! I looked, and there before me was a black horse! Its rider was holding a pair of scales in his hand.
