Normally the OET discourages the reading of individual ‘verses’, but this view is only designed for doing comparisons of different translations.

6:1–16:21 Three sets of seven judgments—the seals, trumpets, and bowls—form the core of Revelation. Some suggest that the judgments form a chronological sequence from beginning to end, with each set of judgments flowing from the seventh judgment of the previous set for a total of twenty-one successive judgments. More likely, the relationship is cyclical (as in other Jewish apocalyptic works; cp. Dan 2, 7, 8, 11), with each set conveying increasing intensity and adding new details of God’s judgment on those who rebel against him. In this perspective, all three cycles end at the same chronological point, with the return of Christ.
Note 1 topic: writing-pronouns
ἤνοιξεν
˱he˲_opened_up
The pronoun he refers to the Lamb. It may be helpful to clarify this for your readers, here and in verses 5, 7, 9, and 12. Alternate translation: [the Lamb opened]
Note 2 topic: translate-ordinal
τὴν σφραγῖδα τὴν δευτέραν & τοῦ δευτέρου ζῴου
the seal ¬the second & ˱from˲_the second living_creature
As the General Notes to this chapter discuss, if your language does not use ordinal numbers, you can use cardinal numbers or equivalent expressions in these instances. Alternate translation: [seal number two … living creature number two]
