Revelation of John 4

1 After these things I looked, and, behold, an open door in heaven, and the first voice which I heard, was like a trumpet that spoke with me, saying, Come up here, and I will show thee the things that need to be done after these. 2 And immediately I was in the spirit, and, behold, a throne was set in heaven, and there was one seated upon the throne. 3 And he that was seated was like a jasper and a sardine stone to look upon; and [there was] a rainbow round about the throne, in sight like unto an emerald. 4 And round about the throne [were] twenty-four thrones, and upon the thrones I saw twenty-four elders sitting, clothed in white raiment; and they had on their heads crowns of gold. 5 And out of the throne proceeded lightnings and thunderings and voices; and [there were] seven lamps of fire burning before the throne, which are the seven Spirits of God. 6 And before the throne [there was] a sea of glass like unto crystal, and in the midst of the throne and round about the throne [were] four animals full of eyes in front and behind. 7 And the first animal [was] like a lion and the second animal like a calf, and the third animal had a face as a man, and the fourth animal [was] like a flying eagle. 8 And the four animals had each of them six wings about [him], and [they were] full of eyes within, and they did not cease day or night, saying, Holy, holy, holy, the Lord God Almighty, who was and is and is to come. 9 And when those animals give glory and honour and praise to the one that is seated on the throne, who lives for ever and ever, 10 the twenty-four elders fall down before him that is seated on the throne and worship him that lives for ever and ever and cast their crowns before the throne, saying, 11 Thou art worthy, O Lord, to receive glory and honour and virtue; for thou hast created all things, and by thy will they have their being and were created.:
