* After this I looked (5627 ), and , behold (5628 ), a door was opened (5772 ) in heaven : and the first voice which I heard (5656 ) was as it were of a trumpet talking (5723 ) with me ; which said (5723 ), Come up (5628 ) hither , and I will shew (5692 ) thee things which must (5748 ) be (5635 ) hereafter . * And immediately I was (5633 ) in the spirit : and , behold (5628 ), a throne was set (5711 ) in heaven , and one sat (5740 ) on the throne . * And he that sat (5740 ) was (5713 ) to look upon like a jasper and a sardine stone : and there was a rainbow round about the throne , in sight like unto an emerald . * And round about the throne were four and twenty seats : and upon the seats I saw (5627 ) four and twenty elders sitting (5740 ), clothed (5772 ) in white raiment ; and they had (5627 ) on their heads crowns of gold . * And out of the throne proceeded (5736 ) lightnings and thunderings and voices : and there were seven lamps of fire burning (5746 ) before the throne , which are (5748 ) the seven Spirits of God . * And before the throne there was a sea of glass like unto crystal : and in the midst of the throne , and round about the throne , were four beasts full (5723 ) of eyes before and behind . * And the first beast was like a lion , and the second beast like a calf , and the third beast had (5723 ) a face as a man , and the fourth beast was like a flying (5740 ) eagle . * And the four beasts had (5707 ) each of them six wings about him ; and they were full (5723 ) of eyes within : and they rest not (5719 ) day and night , saying (5723 ), Holy , holy , holy , Lord God Almighty , which was (5713 ) (5625 ), and is (5752 ) (5625 ), and is to come (5740 ) (5625 ). * And when those beasts give (5692 ) glory and honour and thanks to him that sat (5740 ) on the throne , who liveth (5723 ) for ever and ever , * The four and twenty elders fall down (5699 ) before him that sat (5740 ) on the throne , and worship (5719 ) him that liveth (5723 ) for ever and ever , and cast (5719 ) their crowns before the throne , saying (5723 ), * Thou art (5748 ) worthy , O Lord , to receive (5629 ) glory and honour and power : for thou hast created (5656 ) all things , and for thy pleasure they are (5748 ) and were created (5681 ). * And I saw (5627 ) in the right hand of him that sat (5740 ) on the throne a book written (5772 ) within and on the backside , sealed (5772 ) with seven seals . * And I saw (5627 ) a strong angel proclaiming (5723 ) with a loud voice , Who is (5748 ) worthy to open (5658 ) the book , and to loose (5658 ) the seals thereof ? * And no man in heaven , nor in earth , neither under the earth , was able (5711 ) to open (5658 ) the book , neither to look (5721 ) thereon . * And I wept (5707 ) much , because no man was found (5681 ) worthy to open (5658 ) and to read (5629 ) the book , neither to look (5721 ) thereon . * And one of the elders saith (5719 ) unto me , Weep (5720 ) not : behold (5628 ), the Lion of (5752 ) the tribe of Juda , the Root of David , hath prevailed (5656 ) to open (5658 ) the book , and to loose (5658 ) the seven seals thereof . * And I beheld (5627 ), and , lo (5628 ), in the midst of the throne and of the four beasts , and in the midst of the elders , stood (5761 ) a Lamb as it had been slain (5772 ), having (5723 ) seven horns and seven eyes , which are (5748 ) the seven Spirits of God sent forth (5772 ) into all the earth . * And he came (5627 ) and took (5758 ) the book out of the right hand of him that sat (5740 ) upon the throne . * And when he had taken (5627 ) the book , the four beasts and four and twenty elders fell down (5627 ) before the Lamb , having (5723 ) every one of them harps , and golden vials full (5723 ) of odours , which are (5748 ) the prayers of saints . * And they sung (5719 ) a new song , saying (5723 ), Thou art (5748 ) worthy to take (5629 ) the book , and to open (5658 ) the seals thereof : for thou wast slain (5648 ), and hast redeemed (5656 ) us to God by thy blood out of every kindred , and tongue , and people , and nation ; * And hast made (5656 ) us unto our God kings and priests : and we shall reign (5692 ) on the earth . * And I beheld (5627 ), and I heard (5656 ) the voice of many angels round about the throne and the beasts and the elders : and the number of them was (5713 ) ten thousand times ten thousand , and thousands of thousands ; * Saying (5723 ) with a loud voice , Worthy is (5748 ) the Lamb that was slain (5772 ) to receive (5629 ) power , and riches , and wisdom , and strength , and honour , and glory , and blessing . * And every creature which is (5748 ) in heaven , and on the earth , and under the earth , and such as are (5748 ) in the sea , and all that are in them , heard I (5656 ) saying (5723 ), Blessing , and honour , and glory , and power , be unto him that sitteth (5740 ) upon the throne , and unto the Lamb for ever and ever . * And the four beasts said (5707 ), Amen . And the four and twenty elders fell down (5627 ) and worshipped (5656 ) him that liveth (5723 ) for ever and ever . * And I saw (5627 ) when the Lamb opened (5656 ) one of the seals , and I heard (5656 ), as it were the noise of thunder , one of the four beasts saying (5723 ), Come (5736 ) and see (5720 ). * And I saw (5627 ), and behold (5628 ) a white horse : and he that sat (5740 ) on him had (5723 ) a bow ; and a crown was given (5681 ) unto him : and he went forth (5627 ) conquering (5723 ), and to conquer (5661 ). * And when he had opened (5656 ) the second seal , I heard (5656 ) the second beast say (5723 ), Come (5736 ) and see (5720 ). * And there went out (5627 ) another horse that was red : and power was given (5681 ) to him that sat (5740 ) thereon to take (5629 ) peace from the earth , and that they should kill (5661 ) one another : and there was given (5681 ) unto him a great sword . * And when he had opened (5656 ) the third seal , I heard (5656 ) the third beast say (5723 ), Come (5736 ) and see (5720 ). And I beheld (5627 ), and lo (5628 ) a black horse ; and he that sat (5740 ) on him had (5723 ) a pair of balances in his hand . * And I heard (5656 ) a voice in the midst of the four beasts say (5723 ), A measure of wheat for a penny , and three measures of barley for a penny ; and see thou hurt (5661 ) not the oil and the wine . * And when he had opened (5656 ) the fourth seal , I heard (5656 ) the voice of the fourth beast say (5723 ), Come (5736 ) and see (5720 ). * And I looked (5627 ), and behold (5628 ) a pale horse : and his name that sat (5740 ) on him was Death , and Hell followed (5719 ) with him . And power was given (5681 ) unto them over the fourth part of the earth , to kill (5658 ) with sword , and with hunger , and with death , and with the beasts of the earth . * And when he had opened (5656 ) the fifth seal , I saw (5627 ) under the altar the souls of them that were slain (5772 ) for the word of God , and for the testimony which they held (5707 ): * And they cried (5707 ) with a loud voice , saying (5723 ), How long , O Lord , holy and true , dost thou not judge (5719 ) and avenge (5719 ) our blood on them that dwell (5723 ) on the earth ? * And white robes were given (5681 ) unto every one of them ; and it was said (5681 ) unto them , that they should rest (5672 ) yet for a little season , until their fellowservants also and their brethren , that should (5723 ) be killed (5745 ) as they were , should be fulfilled (5695 ). * And I beheld (5627 ) when he had opened (5656 ) the sixth seal , and , lo (5628 ), there was (5633 ) a great earthquake ; and the sun became (5633 ) black as sackcloth of hair , and the moon became (5633 ) as blood ; * And the stars of heaven fell (5627 ) unto the earth , even as a fig tree casteth (5719 ) her untimely figs , when she is shaken (5746 ) of a mighty wind . * And the heaven departed (5681 ) as a scroll when it is rolled together (5746 ); and every mountain and island were moved (5681 ) out of their places . * And the kings of the earth , and the great men , and the rich men , and the chief captains , and the mighty men , and every bondman , and every free man , hid (5656 ) themselves in the dens and in the rocks of the mountains ; * And said (5719 ) to the mountains and rocks , Fall (5628 ) on us , and hide (5657 ) us from the face of him that sitteth (5740 ) on the throne , and from the wrath of the Lamb : * For the great day of his wrath is come (5627 ); and who shall be able (5736 ) to stand (5683 )? * And after these things I saw (5627 ) four angels standing (5761 ) on the four corners of the earth , holding (5723 ) the four winds of the earth , that the wind should not blow (5725 ) on the earth , nor on the sea , nor on any tree .
