Revelation:4
Seeker Overlay ON
*
After this I looked ,
and ,
behold ,
a door was opened in heaven :
and the first voice which I heard was as it were of a trumpet talking with me ;
which said ,
Come up hither ,
and I will shew thee things which must be hereafter .
*
And immediately I was in the spirit :
and ,
behold ,
a throne was set in heaven ,
and one sat on the throne .
*
And he that sat was 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 four and twenty elders sitting ,
clothed in white raiment ;
and they had on their heads crowns of gold .
*
And out of the throne proceeded lightnings and thunderings and voices :
and there were seven lamps of fire burning before the throne ,
which are 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 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 a face as a man ,
and the fourth beast was like a flying eagle .
*
And the four beasts had each of them six wings about him ;
and they were full of eyes within :
and they rest not day and night ,
saying ,
Holy ,
holy ,
holy ,
Lord God Almighty ,
which was ,
and is ,
and is to come .
*
And when those beasts give glory and honour and thanks to him that sat on the throne ,
who liveth for ever and ever ,
*
The four and twenty elders fall down before him that sat on the throne ,
and worship him that liveth for ever and ever ,
and cast their crowns before the throne ,
saying ,
*
Thou art worthy ,
O Lord ,
to receive glory and honour and power :
for thou hast created all things ,
and for thy pleasure they are and were created .
