International Standard Version

1After these things I saw four angels standing at the four corners of the earth, holding the four winds of the earth, that the wind should not blow on the earth, on the sea, or on any tree.

1After this, I saw four angels standing at the four corners of the earth. They were holding back the four winds of the earth so that no wind could blow on the land, on the sea, or on any tree.

2Then I saw another angel ascending from the east, having the seal of the living God. And he cried with a loud voice to the four angels to whom it was granted to harm the earth and the sea,

2I saw another angel coming from the east having the seal of the living God. He cried out in a loud voice to the four angels who had been permitted to harm the land and sea,

3saying, “Do not harm the earth, the sea, or the trees till we have sealed the servants of our God on their foreheads.”

3"Don't harm the land, the sea, or the trees until we have marked the servants of our God with a seal on their foreheads."

4And I heard the number of those who were sealed. One hundred and forty-four thousand of all the tribes of the children of Israel were sealed:

4I heard the number of those who were sealed: 144,000. Those who were sealed were from every tribe of Israel:

5of the tribe of Judah twelve thousand were sealed; of the tribe of Reuben twelve thousand were sealed; of the tribe of Gad twelve thousand were sealed;

512,000 from the tribe of Judah were sealed, 12,000 from the tribe of Reuben, 12,000 from the tribe of Gad,

6of the tribe of Asher twelve thousand were sealed; of the tribe of Naphtali twelve thousand were sealed; of the tribe of Manasseh twelve thousand were sealed;

612,000 from the tribe of Asher, 12,000 from the tribe of Naphtali, 12,000 from the tribe of Manasseh,

7of the tribe of Simeon twelve thousand were sealed; of the tribe of Levi twelve thousand were sealed; of the tribe of Issachar twelve thousand were sealed;

712,000 from the tribe of Simeon, 12,000 from the tribe of Levi, 12,000 from the tribe of Issachar,

8of the tribe of Zebulun twelve thousand were sealed; of the tribe of Joseph twelve thousand were sealed; of the tribe of Benjamin twelve thousand were sealed.

812,000 from the tribe of Zebulun, 12,000 from the tribe of Joseph, and 12,000 from the tribe of Benjamin were sealed.

9After these things I looked, and behold, a great multitude which no one could number, of all nations, tribes, peoples, and tongues, standing before the throne and before the Lamb, clothed with white robes, with palm branches in their hands,

9After these things, I looked, and there was a crowd so large that no one was able to count it! They were from every nation, tribe, people, and language. They were standing in front of the throne and the lamb and were wearing white robes, with palm branches in their hands.

10and crying out with a loud voice, saying, “Salvation belongs to our God who sits on the throne, and to the Lamb!”

10They cried out in a loud voice, "Salvation belongs to our God, who sits on the throne, and to the lamb!"

11All the angels stood around the throne and the elders and the four living creatures, and fell on their faces before the throne and worshiped God,

11All the angels stood around the throne and around the elders and the four living creatures. They fell on their faces in front of the throne and worshipped God,

12saying: “Amen! Blessing and glory and wisdom, Thanksgiving and honor and power and might, Be to our God forever and ever. Amen.”

12saying, "Amen! Praise, glory, wisdom, thanks, honor, power, and strength be to our God forever and ever! Amen!"

13Then one of the elders answered, saying to me, “Who are these arrayed in white robes, and where did they come from?”

13"Who are these people wearing white robes," one of the elders asked me, "and where did they come from?"

14And I said to him, “Sir, you know.” So he said to me, “These are the ones who come out of the great tribulation, and washed their robes and made them white in the blood of the Lamb.

14I told him, "Sir, you know." Then he told me, "These are the people who are coming out of the terrible suffering. They have washed their robes and made them white in the blood of the lamb.

15Therefore they are before the throne of God, and serve Him day and night in His temple. And He who sits on the throne will dwell among them.

15That is why: "They are in front of the throne of God and worship him night and day in his Temple. The one who sits on the throne will shelter them.

16They shall neither hunger anymore nor thirst anymore; the sun shall not strike them, nor any heat;

16They will never be hungry or thirsty again. Neither the sun nor its heat will ever beat down on them,

17for the Lamb who is in the midst of the throne will shepherd them and lead them to living fountains of waters. And God will wipe away every tear from their eyes.”

17because the lamb in the center of the throne will be their shepherd. He will lead them to springs filled with the water of life, and God will wipe every tear from their eyes."
