English term or phrase: the four horses of the apocalypse
As a scourge of the modern world, obesity has an image problem. It is easier to associate with Father Christmas than with the four horses of the apocalypse.

就译成“启示录中的四匹马”?但不明就理的人仍不会知道四匹马的象征意义。
期待更好的译法...

代表假基督、战争、饥荒、死亡的相继出现


Explanation:
" And I saw heaven opened, and behold a white horse; and he that sat upon him was called Faithful and True, and in righteousness he doth judge and make war.

And he was clothed with a vesture dipped in blood: and his name is called The Word of God."....

Please see the website.

揭开七印的前四印,有白、红、黑、灰四匹马,代表假基督、战争、饥荒、死亡的相继出现;第五印则有人为道殉难,与主耶稣所讲的灾难起头相合(太二十四3~11);第六印是末日和主降临的预兆和景象(太二十四29;珥二31)。这时插入两班蒙恩免灾的人,一班为在地上受印的十四万四千以色列人,一班为被提到天上数不过来的被赎的外邦人,他们比不上二十四位长老的地位,但却是得救,能到神面前事奉神的人。
