The Throne Room of Heaven

1 After these things I looked, and behold, a door standing aopen in heaven. And the first voice which I heard was like a btrumpet speaking with me, saying, “Come up here, and I will show you things which must take place after this.”  
2 Immediately aI was in the Spirit; and behold, ba throne set in heaven, and One sat on the throne.  
3 1And He who sat there was alike a jasper and a sardius stone in appearance; band there was a rainbow around the throne, in appearance like an emerald.  
4 aAround the throne were twenty-four thrones, and on the thrones I saw twenty-four elders sitting, bclothed in white robes; and they had crowns of gold on their heads.  
5 And from the throne proceeded alightnings, thunderings, and voices. bSeven lamps of fire were burning before the throne, which are cthe seven Spirits of God.  
6 Before the throne there1 was aa sea of glass, like crystal. bAnd in the midst of the throne, and around the throne, were four living creatures full of eyes in front and in back.  
7 aThe first living creature was like a lion, the second living creature like a calf, the third living creature had a face like a man, and the fourth living creature was like a flying eagle.  
8 The four living creatures, each having asix wings, were full of eyes around and within. And they do not rest day or night, saying:
b“Holy,1 holy, holy,
cLord God Almighty,
dWho was and is and is to come!”  
9 Whenever the living creatures give glory and honor and thanks to Him who sits on the throne, awho lives forever and ever,  
10 athe twenty-four elders fall down before Him who sits on the throne and worship Him who lives forever and ever, and cast their crowns before the throne, saying: 
11 “Youa are worthy, O Lord,
To receive glory and honor and power;
bFor You created all things,
And by cYour will they exist and were created.”
