* After these things I saw four angels standing at the four corners of the earth , holding the four winds of the earth , that the wind should not blow on the earth , on the sea , or on any tree . * Then I saw another angel ascending from the east , having the seal of the living God . And he cried with a loud voice to the four angels to whom it was granted to harm the earth and the sea , * saying , "Do not harm the earth , the sea , or the trees till we have sealed the servants of our God on their foreheads ." * And I heard the number of those who were sealed . One hundred and forty-four thousand of all the tribes of the children of Israel were sealed : * of the tribe of Judah twelve thousand were sealed ; of the tribe of Reuben twelve thousand were sealed ; of the tribe of Gad twelve thousand were sealed ; * of the tribe of Asher twelve thousand were sealed ; of the tribe of Naphtali twelve thousand were sealed ; of the tribe of Manasseh twelve thousand were sealed ; * of the tribe of Simeon twelve thousand were sealed ; of the tribe of Levi twelve thousand were sealed ; of the tribe of Issachar twelve thousand were sealed ; * of the tribe of Zebulun twelve thousand were sealed ; of the tribe of Joseph twelve thousand were sealed ; of the tribe of Benjamin twelve thousand were sealed . * After these things I looked , and behold , a great multitude which no one could number , of all nations , tribes , peoples , and tongues , standing before the throne and before the Lamb , clothed with white robes , with palm branches in their hands , * and crying out with a loud voice , saying , "Salvation belongs to our God who sits on the throne , and to the Lamb !" * All the angels stood around the throne and the elders and the four living creatures , and fell on their faces before the throne and worshiped God , * saying : "Amen ! Blessing and glory and wisdom , Thanksgiving and honor and power and might , Be to our God forever and ever . Amen ." * Then one of the elders answered , saying to me , "Who are these arrayed in white robes , and where did they come from ?" * And I said to him , "Sir , you know ." So he said to me , "These are the ones who come out of the great tribulation , and washed their robes and made them white in the blood of the Lamb . * Therefore they are before the throne of God , and serve Him day and night in His temple . And He who sits on the throne will dwell among them . * They shall neither hunger anymore nor thirst anymore ; the sun shall not strike them , nor any heat ; * for the Lamb who is in the midst of the throne will shepherd them and lead them to living fountains of waters . And God will wipe away every tear from their eyes ."
