1 A fter these things I saw, and behold, a door opened in heaven, and the first voice which I heard as of a trumpet speaking with me, saying, Come up here, and I will shew thee the things which must take place after these things.

After these things I saw, and lo, a door opened in the heaven, and the first voice that I heard as of a trumpet speaking with me, saying, `Come up hither, and I will shew thee what it behoveth to come to pass after these things;'

2 I mmediately I became in Spirit; and behold, a throne stood in the heaven, and upon the throne one sitting,

and immediately I was in the Spirit, and lo, a throne was set in the heaven, and upon the throne is sitting,

3 a nd he sitting like in appearance to a stone jasper and a sardius, and a rainbow round the throne like in appearance to an emerald.

and He who is sitting was in sight like a stone, jasper and sardine: and a rainbow was round the throne in sight like an emerald.

4 A nd round the throne twenty-four thrones, and on the thrones twenty-four elders sitting, clothed with white garments; and on their heads golden crowns.

And around the throne thrones twenty and four, and upon the thrones I saw the twenty and four elders sitting, clothed in white garments, and they had upon their heads crowns of gold;

5 A nd out of the throne go forth lightnings, and voices, and thunders; and seven lamps of fire, burning before the throne, which are the seven Spirits of God;

and out of the throne proceed do lightnings, and thunders, and voices; and seven lamps of fire are burning before the throne, which are the Seven Spirits of God,

6 a nd before the throne, as a glass sea, like crystal. And in the midst of the throne, and around the throne, four living creatures, full of eyes, before and behind;

and before the throne a sea of glass like to crystal, and in the midst of the throne, and round the throne, four living creatures, full of eyes before and behind;

7 a nd the first living creature like a lion, and the second living creature like a calf, and the third living creature having the face as of a man, and the fourth living creature like a flying eagle.

and the first living creature like a lion, and the second living creature like a calf, and the third living creature hath the face as a man, and the fourth living creature like an eagle flying.

8 A nd the four living creatures, each one of them having respectively six wings; round and within they are full of eyes; and they cease not day and night saying, Holy, holy, holy, Lord God Almighty, who was, and who is, and who is to come.

And the four living creatures, each by itself severally, had six wings, around and within full of eyes, and rest they have not day and night, saying, `Holy, holy, holy, Lord God Almighty, who was, and who is, and who is coming;'

9 A nd when the living creatures shall give glory and honour and thanksgiving to him that sits upon the throne, who lives to the ages of ages,

and when the living creatures do give glory, and honour, and thanks, to Him who is sitting upon the throne, who is living to the ages of the ages,

10 t he twenty-four elders shall fall before him that sits upon the throne, and do homage to him that lives to the ages of ages; and shall cast their crowns before the throne, saying,

fall down do the twenty and four elders before Him who is sitting upon the throne, and bow before Him who is living to the ages of the ages, and they cast their crowns before the throne, saying,

11 T hou art worthy, O our Lord and God, to receive glory and honour and power; for thou hast created all things, and for thy will they were, and they have been created.

`Worthy art Thou, O Lord, to receive the glory, and the honour, and the power, because Thou -- Thou didst create the all things, and because of Thy will are they, and they were created.'
