Revelation 7:1-17
1 And after these things I saw four angels
standing on the four corners of the earth, holding the four winds of the earth, that the
wind should not blow on the earth, nor on the sea, nor on any tree. 2 And 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 given to hurt the earth and the sea, 3 Saying,
Hurt not the earth, neither the sea, nor the trees, till we have sealed the servants of
our God in their foreheads.
4 And I heard the number of them which
were sealed: and there were sealed an hundred and forty and four thousand
of all the tribes of the children of Israel. |
5 Of the tribe of Juda were
sealed twelve thousand. Of the tribe of Reuben were sealed twelve thousand. Of
the tribe of Gad were sealed twelve thousand. 6 Of the tribe of Aser were sealed
twelve thousand. Of the tribe of Nepthalim were sealed twelve thousand. Of the
tribe of Manasses were sealed twelve thousand. 7 Of the tribe of Simeon were sealed
twelve thousand. Of the tribe of Levi were sealed twelve thousand. Of the tribe of
Issachar were sealed twelve thousand. 8 Of the tribe of Zabulon were sealed
twelve thousand. Of the tribe of Joseph were sealed twelve thousand. Of the tribe
of Benjamin were sealed twelve thousand. 9 After this I beheld, and, lo, a great
multitude, which no man could number, of all nations, and kindreds, and people, and
tongues, stood before the throne, and before the Lamb, clothed with white robes, and palms
in their hands; 10 And cried with a loud voice, saying, Salvation to our God which sitteth
upon the throne, and unto the Lamb. 11 And all the angels stood round about the throne,
and about the elders and the four beasts, and fell before the throne on their
faces, and worshipped God,
12 Saying, Amen: Blessing, and glory, and
wisdom, and thanksgiving, and honour, and power, and might, be unto our God for ever
and ever. Amen. |
13 And one of the elders
answered, saying unto me, What are these which are arrayed in white robes? and whence came
they? 14 And I said unto him, Sir, thou knowest. And he said to me, These are they which
came out of great tribulation, and have washed their robes, and made them white in the
blood of the Lamb.
15 Therefore are they
before the throne of God, and serve him day and night in his temple: and he that sitteth
on the throne shall dwell among them.
16 They shall hunger no
more, neither thirst any more; neither shall the sun light on them, nor any heat.
17 For the Lamb which is
in the midst of the throne shall feed them, and shall lead them unto living fountains of
waters: and God shall wipe away all tears from their eyes.
