1此後,我看見四位天使站在地的,執掌地上四方的風,叫風不吹在地上、海上,和樹上。After 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.

2我又看見另有一位天使,從上來,拿著永生 神的。他就向那得著權柄能傷害地和海的四位天使大聲喊著說:And 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:

3「地與海並樹木,你們不可傷害,等我們印了我們 神眾僕人的額。」“Do not harm the land or sea or trees until we have placed a seal on the foreheads of the servants of our God.”

4我聽見以色列人各支派中受印的數目有。And I heard the number of those who were sealed, 144,000 from all the tribes of Israel:

5猶大支派中受印的有一萬二千;流便支派中有一萬二千;迦得支派中有一萬二千;From the tribe of Judah 12,000 were sealed, from the tribe of Reuben 12,000, from the tribe of Gad 12,000,

6亞設支派中有一萬二千;拿弗他利支派中有一萬二千;瑪拿西支派中有一萬二千;from the tribe of Asher 12,000, from the tribe of Naphtali 12,000, from the tribe of Manasseh 12,000,

7西緬支派中有一萬二千;利未支派中有一萬二千;以薩迦支派中有一萬二千;from the tribe of Simeon 12,000, from the tribe of Levi 12,000, from the tribe of Issachar 12,000,

8西布倫支派中有一萬二千;中有一萬二千;便雅憫支派中受印的有一萬二千。from the tribe of Zebulun 12,000, from the tribe of Joseph 12,000, and from the tribe of Benjamin 12,000.

9此後,我觀看,見有許多的人,沒有人能數過來,是從各國、各族、各民、各方來的,站在寶座和羔羊面前,身穿白衣,手拿,After 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.

10大聲喊著說:「願救恩歸與坐在寶座上我們的 神,也歸與羔羊!」And they cried out in a loud voice: “Salvation to our God, who sits on the throne, and to the Lamb!”

11眾天使都站在寶座和眾長老並四活物的周圍,在寶座前,面伏於地,敬拜 神,And 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,

12說:阿們!頌讚、榮耀、智慧、感謝、尊貴、權柄、大力都歸與我們的 神,直到永永遠遠。阿們!saying, “Amen! Blessing and glory and wisdom and thanks and honor and power and strength be to our God forever and ever! Amen.”

13長老中有一位問我說:「這些穿白衣的是誰?是從哪裡來的?」Then one of the elders addressed me: “These in white robes,” he asked, “who are they, and where have they come from?”

14我對他說:「我主,你知道。」他向我說:「這些人是從中出來的,曾用羔羊的血把衣裳了。“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.

15所以,他們在 神寶座前,晝夜在他殿中事奉他。坐寶座的要用帳幕他們。For 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.

16他們不再飢,不再渴;日頭和也必不傷害他們。‘Never again will they hunger, and never will they thirst; nor will the sun beat down upon them, nor any scorching heat.’

17因為寶座中的羔羊必他們,領他們到生命水的泉源; 神也必他們一切的眼淚。」For 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.’”
