Chapter 7
7After—this,—I—saw—four—messengers—standing—on—the—four—corners—of—the—earth,—holding—the—four—winds—of—the—earth,—that—the—wind—should—not—blow—on—the—earth,—nor—on—the—sea,—nor—on—any—tree.—
2And—I—saw—another—messenger—ascending—from—the—rising—of—the—sun,—having—the—seal—of—the—living—God,—and—he—cried—with—a—great—voice—unto—the—four—messengers,—to—whom—it—was—given—to—hurt—the—earth—and—the—sea,—
3saying,—Hurt—not—the—earth,—neither—the—sea,—nor—the—trees,—till—we—have—sealed—the—bond-servants—of—our—God—on—their—foreheads.—
4And—I—heard—the—number—of—them—who—were—sealed,—a—hundred—forty—four—thousand,—sealed—of—every—tribe—of—the—sons—of—Israel,—
5of—the—tribe—of—Judah,—twelve—thousand—sealed,—of—the—tribe—of—Reuben,—twelve—thousand,—of—the—tribe—of—Gad,—twelve—thousand,—
6of—the—tribe—of—Asher,—twelve—thousand,—of—the—tribe—of—Naphtali,—twelve—thousand,—of—the—tribe—of—Manasseh,—twelve—thousand,—
7of—the—tribe—of—Simeon,—twelve—thousand,—of—the—tribe—of—Levi,—twelve—thousand,—of—the—tribe—of—Issachar,—twelve—thousand,—
8of—the—tribe—of—Zebulun,—twelve—thousand,—of—the—tribe—of—Joseph,—twelve—thousand,—of—the—tribe—of—Benjamin,—twelve—thousand—sealed.—
9After—these—things—I—saw,—and,—behold,—a—multitude—of—many,—that—none—could—number,—of—every—nation,—and—tribes,—and—peoples,—and—tongues,—standing—before—the—throne—and—before—the—Lamb,—clothed—in—white—robes,—and—palms—in—their—hands;—
10and—they—criedⁿ—with—a—great—voice,—saying,—The—salvation—unto—our—God—who—sits—on—the—throne—and—unto—the—Lamb.—
11And—all—the—messengers—were—standing—round—about—the—throne—and—the—elders—and—the—four—creatures,—and—fell—before—the—throne—on—their—faces,—and—worshipped—God,—
12saying,—Amen:—The—blessing,—and—the—glory,—and—the—wisdom,—and—the—thanksgiving,—and—the—honor,—and—the—might,—and—the—strength,—be—unto—our—God—unto—the—ages—of—the—ages.—Amen.—
13And—one—of—the—elders—answered,—saying—unto—me,—These—who—are—clothed—in—the—white—robes,—who—are—they,—and—from—where—have—they—come?—
14And—I—said—unto—him,—My—lord,—you—know.—And—he—said—unto—me,—These—are—they—who—are—coming—out—of—the—tribulation,—the—great,—and—have—washed—their—robes—and—made—them—white—in—the—blood—of—the—Lamb.—
15Therefore—are—they—before—the—throne—of—God—and—serve—him—day—and—night—in—his—temple,—and—he—who—sits—on—the—throne—will—tabernacle—over—them.—
16They—will—hunger—no—more,—neither—thirst—any—more;—neither—will—the—sun—fall—on—them—at—all,—nor—any—heat.—
17For—the—Lamb—who—is—in—the—midst—of—the—throne—will—shepherdˢ—them,—and—will—lead—them—unto—fountains—of—waters—of—life,—and—God—will—wipe—away—every—tear—from—their—eyes.—
