CHAPTER 4 :1 After <G 3326> this <G 5023> I looked <G 1492>, and,

 behold <G 2400>, a door <G 2374> [was] opened <G 0455> in

heaven <G 3772>: and the first <G 4413> voice <G 5456> which <G

3739> I heard <G 0191> [was] as it were of a trumpet <G 4536>

talking <G 2980> with me; which said <G 3004>, Come <G 0305> up

hither <G 5602>, and I will shew <G 1166> thee things which <G

3739> must <G 1163> be hereafter <G 5023>.




:2 And immediately <G 2112> I was in the spirit <G 4151>: and,

behold <G 2400>, a throne <G 2362> was set <G 2749> in heaven <G

3772>, and [one] sat <G 2521> on <G 1909> the throne <G 2362>.




:3 And he that sat <G 2521> was to look <G 3706> upon like <G

3664> a jasper <G 2393> and a sardine <G 4555> stone <G 3037>:

and [there was] a rainbow <G 2463> round <G 2943> about <G 2943>

the throne <G 2362>, in sight <G 3706> like <G 3664> unto an

emerald <G 4664>.




:4 And round <G 2943> about <G 2943> the throne <G 2362> [were]

four <G 5064> and twenty <G 1501> seats <G 2362>: and upon the

seats <G 2362> I saw <G 1492> four <G 5064> and twenty <G 1501>

elders <G 4245> sitting <G 2521>, clothed <G 4016> in white <G

3022> raiment <G 2440>; and they had <G 2192> on <G 1909> their

heads <G 2776> crowns <G 4735> of gold <G 5552>.




:5 And out of the throne <G 2362> proceeded <G 1607> lightnings

<G 0796> and thunderings <G 1027> and voices <G 5456>: and

[there were] seven <G 2033> lamps <G 2985> of fire <G 4442>

burning <G 2545> before <G 1799> the throne <G 2362>, which <G

3739> are the seven <G 2033> Spirits <G 4151> of God <G 2316>.




:6 And before <G 1799> the throne <G 2362> [there was] a sea <G

2281> of glass <G 5193> like <G 3664> unto crystal <G 2930>: and

in the midst <G 3319> of the throne <G 2362>, and round <G 2943>

about <G 2943> the throne <G 2362>, [were] four <G 5064> beasts

<G 2226> full <G 1073> of eyes <G 3788> before <G 1715> and

behind <G 3693>.




:7 And the first <G 4413> beast <G 2226> [was] like <G 3664> a

lion <G 3023>, and the second <G 1208> beast <G 2226> like <G

3664> a calf <G 3448>, and the third <G 5154> beast <G 2226> had

<G 2192> a face <G 4383> as a man <G 0444>, and the fourth <G

5067> beast <G 2226> [was] like <G 3664> a flying <G 4072> eagle

<G 0105>.




:8 And the four <G 5064> beasts <G 2226> had <G 2192> each <G

0303> of them six <G 1803> wings <G 4420> about <G 2943> [him];

and [they were] full <G 1073> of eyes <G 3788> within <G 2081>:

and they rest <G 0372> not day <G 2250> and night <G 3571>,

saying <G 3004>, Holy <G 0040>, holy <G 0040>, holy <G 0040>,

Lord <G 2962> God <G 2316> Almighty <G 3841>, which <G 3588> was,

 and is, and is to come <G 2064>.




:9 And when <G 3752> those <G 3588> beasts <G 2226> give <G

1325> glory <G 1391> and honour <G 5092> and thanks <G 2169> to

him that sat <G 2521> on <G 1909> the throne <G 2362>, who <G

3588> liveth <G 2198> for ever <G 0165> and ever <G 0165>,




:10 The four <G 5064> and twenty <G 1501> elders <G 4245> fall

<G 4098> down before <G 1799> him that sat <G 2521> on <G 1909>

the throne <G 2362>, and worship <G 4352> him that liveth <G

2198> for ever <G 0165> and ever <G 0165>, and cast <G 0906>

their crowns <G 4735> before <G 1799> the throne <G 2362>,

saying <G 3004>,




:11 Thou art <G 1488> worthy <G 0514>, O Lord <G 2962>, to

receive <G 2983> glory <G 1391> and honour <G 5092> and power <G

1411>: for thou hast created <G 2936> all <G 3956> things, and

for thy pleasure <G 2307> they are and were created <G 2936>.
