1 D epois disso vi quatro anjos em pé nos quatro cantos da terra, retendo os quatro ventos, para impedir que qualquer vento soprasse na terra, no mar ou em qualquer árvore.

After his I saw four angels standing at the four corners of the earth, holding the four winds of the earth, that no wind should blow on the earth, or on the sea, or upon any tree.

2 E ntão vi outro anjo subindo do Oriente, tendo o selo do Deus vivo. Ele bradou em alta voz aos quatro anjos a quem havia sido dado poder para danificar a terra e o mar:

And I saw another angel ascend from the sunrising, having the seal of the living God: and he cried with a great voice to the four angels to whom it was given to hurt the earth and the sea,

3 “ Não danifiquem, nem a terra, nem o mar, nem as árvores, até que selemos as testas dos servos do nosso Deus”.

saying, Hurt not the earth, neither the sea, nor the trees, till we shall have sealed the servants of our God on their foreheads.

4 E ntão ouvi o número dos que foram selados: cento e quarenta e quatro mil, de todas as tribos de Israel.

And I heard the number of them that were sealed, a hundred and forty and four thousand, sealed out of every tribe of the children of Israel:

5 D a tribo de Judá foram selados doze mil, da tribo de Rúben, doze mil, da tribo de Gade, doze mil,

Of the tribe of Judah were sealed twelve thousand: Of the tribe of Reuben twelve thousand; Of the tribe of Gad twelve thousand;

6 d a tribo de Aser, doze mil, da tribo de Naftali, doze mil, da tribo de Manassés, doze mil,

Of the tribe of Asher twelve thousand; Of the tribe of Naphtali twelve thousand; Of the tribe of Manasseh twelve thousand;

7 d a tribo de Simeão, doze mil, da tribo de Levi, doze mil, da tribo de Issacar, doze mil,

Of the tribe of Simeon twelve thousand; Of the tribe of Levi twelve thousand; Of the tribe of Issachar twelve thousand;

8 d a tribo de Zebulom, doze mil, da tribo de José, doze mil, da tribo de Benjamim, doze mil. A Grande Multidão com Vestes Brancas

Of the tribe of Zebulun twelve thousand; Of the tribe of Joseph twelve thousand; Of the tribe of Benjamin were sealed twelve thousand.

9 D epois disso olhei, e diante de mim estava uma grande multidão que ninguém podia contar, de todas as nações, tribos, povos e línguas, em pé, diante do trono e do Cordeiro, com vestes brancas e segurando palmas.

After these things I saw, and behold, a great multitude, which no man could number, out of every nation and of all tribes and peoples and tongues, standing before the throne and before the Lamb, arrayed in white robes, and palms in their hands;

10 E clamavam em alta voz: “A salvação pertence ao nosso Deus, que se assenta no trono, e ao Cordeiro”.

and they cry with a great voice, saying, Salvation unto our God who sitteth on the throne, and unto the Lamb.

11 T odos os anjos estavam em pé ao redor do trono, dos anciãos e dos quatro seres viventes. Eles se prostraram com o rosto em terra diante do trono e adoraram a Deus,

And all the angels were standing round about the throne, and about the elders and the four living creatures; and they fell before the throne on their faces, and worshipped God,

12 d izendo: “Amém! Louvor e glória, sabedoria, ação de graças, honra, poder e força sejam ao nosso Deus para todo o sempre. Amém!”

saying, Amen: Blessing, and glory, and wisdom, and thanksgiving, and honor, and power, and might, be unto our God for ever and ever. Amen.

13 E ntão um dos anciãos me perguntou: “Quem são estes que estão vestidos de branco, e de onde vieram?”

And one of the elders answered, saying unto me, These that are arrayed in white robes, who are they, and whence came they?

14 R espondi: Senhor, tu o sabes. E ele disse: “Estes são os que vieram da grande tribulação e lavaram as suas vestes e as alvejaram no sangue do Cordeiro.

And I say unto him, My lord, thou knowest. And he said to me, These are they that come of the great tribulation, and they washed their robes, and made them white in the blood of the Lamb.

15 P or isso, eles estão diante do trono de Deus e o servem dia e noite em seu santuário; e aquele que está assentado no trono estenderá sobre eles o seu tabernáculo.

Therefore are they before the throne of God; and they serve him day and night in his temple: and he that sitteth on the throne shall spread his tabernacle over them.

16 N unca mais terão fome, nunca mais terão sede. Não os afligirá o sol, nem qualquer calor abrasador,

They shall hunger no more, neither thirst any more; neither shall the sun strike upon them, nor any heat:

17 p ois o Cordeiro que está no centro do trono será o seu Pastor; ele os guiará às fontes de água viva. E Deus enxugará dos seus olhos toda lágrima”.

for the Lamb that is in the midst of the throne shall be their shepherd, and shall guide them unto fountains of waters of life: and God shall wipe away every tear from their eyes.
