Revelation 4 with Writchristo

Revelation 4:1 to 4:11    

     After this I looked, and, behold a door was opened in heaven:  and the first

voice I heard was as it were of a trumpet talking with me;  which said, Come

up hither, and I will shew thee things which must be hereafter.

     And immediately I was in the spirit:  and, behold, a throne was set in heaven,

and one sat on the throne.

     And he that sat was to look upon like a jasper and a sardine stone: and there

was a rainbow round about the throne, in sight like unto an emerald.

     And round about the throne were four and twenty seats:  and upon the seats

I saw four and twenty elders sitting, clothed in white raiment;  and they had on

their heads crowns of gold.

     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.

     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 beasts full of eyes

before and behind.

     And the first beast was like a lion, and the second beast like a calf, and the

third beast had a face as a man, and the fourth beast was like a flying eagle.

     And the four beasts had each of them six wings about him; and they were

full of eyes within: and they rest not day and night, saying, Holy, holy, holy,

Lord God Almighty, which was, and is , and is to come.

     And when those beasts give glory and honour and thanks to him that sat on

the throne, who liveth for ever and ever,

     The four and twenty elders fall down before him that sat on the throne, and

worship him that liveth for ever and ever, and cast their crowns before the

throne, saying,

     Thou are worthy, O Lord, to receive glory and honour and power: for thou hast

created all things, and for thy pleasure they are and were created.
