1After this I saw four angels standing at the four corners of the earth, holding back its four winds so that no wind would blow on land or sea or on any tree.

1After this, I saw four angels standing at the four corners of the earth. They were holding back the four winds of the earth so that no wind could blow on the land, on the sea, or on any tree.

2And I saw another angel ascending from the east, with the seal of the living God. And he called out in a loud voice to the four angels who had been given power to harm the land and the sea:

2I saw another angel coming from the east having the seal of the living God. He cried out in a loud voice to the four angels who had been permitted to harm the land and sea,

3“Do not harm the land or sea or trees until we have sealed the foreheads of the servants of our God.”

3"Don't harm the land, the sea, or the trees until we have marked the servants of our God with a seal on their foreheads."

4And I heard the number of those who were sealed, 144,000 from all the tribes of Israel:

9After this I looked and saw a multitude too large to count, from every nation and tribe and people and tongue, standing before the throne and before the Lamb. They were wearing white robes and holding palm branches in their hands.

9After these things, I looked, and there was a crowd so large that no one was able to count it! They were from every nation, tribe, people, and language. They were standing in front of the throne and the lamb and were wearing white robes, with palm branches in their hands.

10And they cried out in a loud voice: “Salvation to our God, who sits on the throne, and to the Lamb!”

10They cried out in a loud voice, "Salvation belongs to our God, who sits on the throne, and to the lamb!"

11And all the angels stood around the throne and around the elders and the four living creatures. And they fell facedown before the throne and worshiped God,

11All the angels stood around the throne and around the elders and the four living creatures. They fell on their faces in front of the throne and worshipped God,

12saying, “Amen! Blessing and glory and wisdom and thanks and honor and power and strength be to our God forever and ever! Amen.”

12saying, "Amen! Praise, glory, wisdom, thanks, honor, power, and strength be to our God forever and ever! Amen!"

13Then one of the elders addressed me: “These in white robes,” he asked, “who are they, and where have they come from?”

13"Who are these people wearing white robes," one of the elders asked me, "and where did they come from?"

14“Sir,” I answered, “you know.” So he replied, “These are the ones who have come out of the great tribulation; they have washed their robes and made them white in the blood of the Lamb.

14I told him, "Sir, you know." Then he told me, "These are the people who are coming out of the terrible suffering. They have washed their robes and made them white in the blood of the lamb.

15For this reason, they are before the throne of God and serve Him day and night in His temple; and the One seated on the throne will spread His tabernacle over them.

15That is why: "They are in front of the throne of God and worship him night and day in his Temple. The one who sits on the throne will shelter them.

16‘Never again will they hunger, and never will they thirst; nor will the sun beat down upon them, nor any scorching heat.’

16They will never be hungry or thirsty again. Neither the sun nor its heat will ever beat down on them,

17For the Lamb in the center of the throne will be their shepherd. ‘He will lead them to springs of living water,’ and ‘God will wipe away every tear from their eyes.’ ”

17because the lamb in the center of the throne will be their shepherd. He will lead them to springs filled with the water of life, and God will wipe every tear from their eyes."
