[1] After these things I looked and saw a door opened in heaven; and the first voice that I heard, like a trumpet speaking with me, was one saying, “Come up here, and I will show you the things which must happen after this.” [2] Immediately I was in the Spirit. Behold, there was a throne set in heaven, and one sitting on the throne [3] that looked like a jasper stone and a sardius. There was a rainbow around the throne, like an emerald to look at. [4] Around the throne were twenty-four thrones. On the thrones were twenty-four elders sitting, dressed in white garments, with crowns of gold on their heads. [5] Out of the throne proceed lightnings, sounds, and thunders. There were seven lamps of fire burning before his throne, which are the seven Spirits of God. [6] Before the throne was something like a sea of glass, similar to crystal. In the middle of the throne, and around the throne were four living creatures full of eyes before and behind. [7] The first creature was like a lion, the second creature like a calf, the third creature had a face like a man, and the fourth was like a flying eagle. [8] The four living creatures, each one of them having six wings, are full of eyes around and within. They have no rest day and night, saying, “Holy, holy, holy‡ is the Lord God, the Almighty, who was and who is and who is to come!” [9] When the living creatures give glory, honor, and thanks to him who sits on the throne, to him who lives forever and ever, [10] the twenty-four elders fall down before him who sits on the throne and worship him who lives forever and ever, and throw their crowns before the throne, saying, [11] “Worthy are you, our Lord and God, the Holy One,‡ to receive the glory, the honor, and the power, for you created all things, and because of your desire they existed and were created!”

A Vision of Heaven

[1] After G3326 this G5023 I looked, G1492 (Aor2ActInd) and, G2532 behold, G2400 (Aor2ActImpr) a door G2374 was opened G455 (PerfPasPtc) in G1722 heaven: G3772 and G2532 the first G4413 voice G5456 which G3739 I heard G191 (AorActInd) was as it were of G5613 a trumpet G4536 talking G2980 (PresActPtc) with G3326 me; G1700 which said, G3004 (PresActPtc) Come up G305 (Aor2ActImpr) hither, G5602 and G2532 I will shew G1166 (FutActInd) thee G4671 things which G3739 must G1163 (PresInd) be G1096 (Aor2MidDepInf) hereafter. G3326 [2] And G2532 immediately G2112 I was G1096 (Aor2MidDepInd) in G1722 the spirit: G4151 and, G2532 behold, G2400 (Aor2ActImpr) a throne G2362 was set G2749 (ImpfMidPasDepInd) in G1722 heaven, G3772 and G2532 one sat G2521 (PresMidPasDepPtc) on G1909 the throne. G2362 [3] And G2532 he that sat G2521 (PresMidPasDepPtc) was G2258 (ImpfInd) to look upon G3706 like G3664 a jasper G2393 and G2532 a sardine G4555 stone: G3037 and G2532 there was a rainbow G2463 round about G2943 the throne, G2362 in sight G3706 like G3664 unto an emerald. G4664 [4] And G2532 round about G2943 the throne G2362 were four G5064 and G2532 twenty G1501 seats: G2362 and G2532 upon G1909 the seats G2362 I saw G1492 (Aor2ActInd) four G5064 and G2532 twenty G1501 elders G4245 sitting, G2521 (PresMidPasDepPtc) clothed G4016 (PerfPasPtc) in G1722 white G3022 raiment; G2440 and G2532 they had G2192 (Aor2ActInd) on G1909 their G846 heads G2776 crowns G4735 of gold. G5552 [5] And G2532 out of G1537 the throne G2362 proceeded G1607 (PresMidPasDepInd) lightnings G796 and G2532 thunderings G1027 and G2532 voices: G5456 and G2532 there were seven G2033 lamps G2985 of fire G4442 burning G2545 (PresPasPtc) before G1799 the throne, G2362 which G3739 are G1526 (PresInd) the seven G2033 Spirits G4151 of God. G2316 [6] And G2532 before G1799 the throne G2362 there was a sea G2281 of glass G5193 like G3664 unto crystal: G2930 and G2532 in G1722 the midst G3319 of the throne, G2362 and G2532 round about G2945 the throne, G2362 were four G5064 beasts G2226 full G1073 (PresActPtc) of eyes G3788 before G1715 and G2532 behind. G3693 [7] And G2532 the first G4413 beast G2226 was like G3664 a lion, G3023 and G2532 the second G1208 beast G2226 like G3664 a calf, G3448 and G2532 the third G5154 beast G2226 had G2192 (PresActPtc) a face G4383 as G5613 a man, G444 and G2532 the fourth G5067 beast G2226 was like G3664 a flying G4072 (PresMidPasDepPtc) eagle. G105 [8] And G2532 the four G5064 beasts G2226 had G2192 (ImpfActInd) each G303 of them G2596 six G1803 wings G4420 about G2943 him; and G2532 they were full G1073 (PresActPtc) of eyes G3788 within: G2081 and G2532 they rest G372 not G3756§ day G2250 and G2532 night, G3571 saying, G3004 (PresActPtc) Holy, G40 holy, G40 holy, G40 Lord G2962 God G2316 Almighty, G3841 which G3588 was, G2258 (ImpfInd) and G2532 is, G5607 (PresPtc) and G2532 is to come. G2064 (PresMidPasDepPtc) [9] And G2532 when G3752 those beasts G2226 give G1325 (FutActInd) glory G1391 and G2532 honour G5092 and G2532 thanks G2169 to him that sat G2521 (PresMidPasDepPtc) on G1909 the throne, G2362 who G3588 liveth G2198 (PresActPtc) for G1519 ever G165 and ever, G165 [10] the four G5064 and G2532 twenty G1501 elders G4245 fall down G4098 (FutMidPasDepInd) before G1799 him that sat G2521 (PresMidPasDepPtc) on G1909 the throne, G2362 and G2532 worship G4352 (PresActInd) him that liveth G2198 (PresActPtc) for G1519 ever G165 and ever, G165 and G2532 cast G906 (PresActInd) their G846 crowns G4735 before G1799 the throne, G2362 saying, G3004 (PresActPtc) [11] Thou art G1488 (PresInd) worthy, G514 O Lord, G2962 to receive G2983 (Aor2ActInf) glory G1391 and G2532 honour G5092 and G2532 power: G1411 for G3754 thou G4771 hast created G2936 (AorActInd) all things, G3956 and G2532 for G1223 thy G4675 pleasure G2307 they are G1526 (PresInd) and G2532 were created.
