Revelation 19:5

3 Again they said, “Alleluia! ^aHer smoke rises up forever and ever!”

4 And ^athe twenty-four elders and the four living creatures fell down and worshiped God who sat on the throne, saying, ^b“Amen! Alleluia!”

5 Then a voice came from the throne, saying, ^a“Praise our God, all you His servants and those who fear Him, ^bboth small and great!”

6 ^aAnd I heard, as it were, the voice of a great multitude, as the sound of many waters and as the sound of mighty thunderings, saying, “Alleluia! For ^bthe Lord God Omnipotent reigns!

7 Let us be glad and rejoice and give Him glory, for ^athe marriage of the Lamb has come, and His wife has made herself ready.”

8 And ^ato her it was granted to be arrayed in fine linen, clean and bright, ^bfor the fine linen is the righteous acts of the saints.

9 Then he said to me, “Write: ^a‘Blessed are those who are called to the marriage supper of the Lamb!’ ” And he said to me, ^b“These are the true sayings of God.”

10 And ^aI fell at his feet to worship him. But he said to me, ^b“See that you do not do that! I am your ^cfellow servant, and of your brethren ^dwho have the testimony of Jesus. Worship God! For the ^etestimony of Jesus is the spirit of prophecy.”

Christ on a White Horse

11 ^aNow I saw heaven opened, and behold, ^ba white horse. And He who sat on him was called ^cFaithful and True, and ^din righteousness He judges and makes war.

12 ^aHis eyes were like a flame of fire, and on His head were many crowns. ^bHe had a name written that no one knew except Himself.

Revelation 19:6 >>

A voice from the throne (fwnh apo tou qronou). Not the voice of God, nor of the Lamb, nor ek tou naou (Revelation 16:17), but from an angel of the Presence. This angel summons all the servants of God to join in the antiphonal praise to God.

Give praise to our God (aineite tw qew hmwn). Present active imperative of ainew, old verb, with the accusative elsewhere in N.T., but here with the dative as occasionally in the LXX (I Chronicles 16:36, etc.).
