啟示錄 4
Chinese Union Version Modern Punctuation (Traditional)
約翰看見天上有一個寶座
4 此後,我觀看,見天上有門開了。我初次聽見好像吹號的聲音對我說:「你上到這裡來,我要將以後必成的事指示你。」 2 我立刻被聖靈感動,見有一個寶座安置在天上,又有一位坐在寶座上。 3 看那坐著的,好像碧玉和紅寶石,又有虹圍著寶座,好像綠寶石。 4 寶座的周圍又有二十四個座位,其上坐著二十四位長老,身穿白衣,頭上戴著金冠冕。 5 有閃電、聲音、雷轟從寶座中發出。又有七盞火燈在寶座前點著,這七燈就是神的七靈。 6 寶座前好像一個玻璃海,如同水晶。寶座中和寶座周圍有四個活物,前後遍體都滿了眼睛。 7 第一個活物像獅子,第二個像牛犢,第三個臉面像人,第四個像飛鷹。 8 四活物各有六個翅膀,遍體內外都滿了眼睛。他們晝夜不住地說:「聖哉,聖哉,聖哉,主神是昔在、今在、以後永在的全能者!」
敬拜和頌讚
9 每逢四活物將榮耀、尊貴、感謝歸給那坐在寶座上、活到永永遠遠者的時候, 10 那二十四位長老就俯伏在坐寶座的面前,敬拜那活到永永遠遠的,又把他們的冠冕放在寶座前,說: 11 「我們的主,我們的神,你是配得榮耀、尊貴、權柄的,因為你創造了萬物,並且萬物是因你的旨意被創造而有的。」

天上的敬拜
4 此后,我再观看,见天上有一扇门开了,又听见刚才那个像号角般响亮的声音对我说:“你上这里来,我要把以后必发生的事指示给你看。” 2 我便立刻被圣灵感动,看见天上安设着一个宝座,有一位坐在宝座上, 3 闪耀着碧玉和红宝石般的光彩。有一道翡翠般的彩虹围绕着宝座。 4 宝座的周围设有二十四个座位,有二十四位长老坐在上面,他们身穿白袍,头戴金冠。 5 从宝座中有闪电、响声、雷鸣发出,宝座前面燃烧着七把火炬,代表[a]上帝的七灵。 6 宝座前还有一个水晶般的玻璃海,宝座的四周有四个活物,他们前后都长满了眼睛。 7 第一个活物像狮子,第二个像牛犊,第三个有人的面孔,第四个像飞鹰。 8 这四个活物各有三对翅膀,翅膀内外都长满眼睛。他们昼夜不停地说:
“圣哉!圣哉!圣哉!
主上帝是昔在、今在、
以后永在的全能者。”
9 每逢这些活物将荣耀、尊贵、感谢献给坐在宝座上、活到永永远远的那位时, 10 二十四位长老就俯伏在坐宝座的那位面前,敬拜那位永活者,又摘下他们头上的冠冕,放在宝座前,说:
11 “我们的主,我们的上帝,
你配得荣耀、尊贵和权能,
因你创造了万物,
万物都因你的旨意被创造而存在。”

The Throne in Heaven
4 After this I looked, and there before me was a door standing open(A) in heaven. And the voice I had first heard speaking to me like a trumpet(B) said, “Come up here,(C) and I will show you what must take place after this.”(D) 2 At once I was in the Spirit,(E) and there before me was a throne in heaven(F) with someone sitting on it. 3 And the one who sat there had the appearance of jasper(G) and ruby.(H) A rainbow(I) that shone like an emerald(J) encircled the throne. 4 Surrounding the throne were twenty-four other thrones, and seated on them were twenty-four elders.(K) They were dressed in white(L) and had crowns of gold on their heads. 5 From the throne came flashes of lightning, rumblings and peals of thunder.(M) In front of the throne, seven lamps(N) were blazing. These are the seven spirits[a](O) of God. 6 Also in front of the throne there was what looked like a sea of glass,(P) clear as crystal.
In the center, around the throne, were four living creatures,(Q) and they were covered with eyes, in front and in back.(R) 7 The first living creature was like a lion, the second was like an ox, the third had a face like a man, the fourth was like a flying eagle.(S) 8 Each of the four living creatures(T) had six wings(U) and was covered with eyes all around,(V) even under its wings. Day and night(W) they never stop saying:
9 Whenever the living creatures give glory, honor and thanks to him who sits on the throne(Z) and who lives for ever and ever,(AA) 10 the twenty-four elders(AB) fall down before him(AC) who sits on the throne(AD) and worship him who lives for ever and ever. They lay their crowns before the throne and say:

King James Version
4 After this I looked, and, behold, a door was opened in heaven: and the first voice which 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.
2 And immediately I was in the spirit: and, behold, a throne was set in heaven, and one sat on the throne.
3 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.
4 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.
5 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.
6 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.
7 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.
8 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.
9 And when those beasts give glory and honour and thanks to him that sat on the throne, who liveth for ever and ever,
10 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,
11 Thou art 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.
