Apocalipsis 4
Dios Habla Hoy
Visión preparatoria
4 Después de esto, miré y vi una puerta abierta en el cielo; y la voz que yo había escuchado primero, y que parecía un toque de trompeta, me dijo: «Sube acá y te mostraré las cosas que tienen que suceder después de éstas.»
2 En ese momento quedé bajo el poder del Espíritu, y vi un trono puesto en el cielo, y alguien estaba sentado en el trono. 3 El que estaba sentado en el trono tenía el aspecto de un diamante o de un rubí, y alrededor del trono había un arco iris que brillaba como una esmeralda; 4 también alrededor del trono vi otros veinticuatro tronos, en los cuales estaban sentados veinticuatro ancianos: iban vestidos de blanco y llevaban una corona de oro en la cabeza. 5 Del trono salían relámpagos, voces y truenos; y delante del trono ardían siete antorchas de fuego, que son los siete espíritus de Dios. 6 Delante del trono había también algo que parecía un mar, transparente como el cristal.
En el centro, donde estaba el trono, y a su alrededor, había cuatro seres vivientes llenos de ojos por delante y por detrás. 7 El primero de aquellos seres parecía un león, el segundo parecía un toro, el tercero tenía aspecto humano, y el cuarto parecía un águila volando. 8 Cada uno de los cuatro seres vivientes tenía seis alas, y estaba cubierto de ojos por fuera y por dentro. Y ni de día ni de noche dejaban de decir:
«¡Santo, santo, santo es el Señor,
Dios todopoderoso,
el que era y es y ha de venir!»
9-10 Cada vez que esos seres vivientes dan gloria y honor y gracias al que está sentado en el trono, al que vive por todos los siglos, los veinticuatro ancianos se arrodillan ante él y lo adoran y, arrojando sus coronas delante del trono, dicen:
11 «Tú eres digno, Señor y Dios nuestro,
de recibir la gloria, el honor y el poder,
porque tú has creado todas las cosas;
por tu voluntad existen y han sido creadas.»
Pahayag 4
Ang Bagong Tipan: Filipino Standard Version
4 Pagkatapos nito ay tumingin ako, at doon sa langit ay may isang pintong nakabukas! Ang unang tinig na narinig kong nagsasalita sa akin ay parang isang trumpeta, na nagsasabi, “Umakyat ka rito at ipakikita ko sa iyo kung ano ang kailangang mangyari pagkatapos ng mga bagay na ito.” 2 At (A) agad akong kinasihan ng espiritu, at doon sa langit ay may isang tronong may nakaupo! 3 At ang nakaupo doon ay nagniningning tulad ng batong jasper at sardio, at sa paligid ng trono ay may bahagharing parang esmeralda. 4 Sa paligid ng trono ay may dalawampu't apat pang trono at sa mga ito ay may nakaupong dalawampu't apat na matatanda na nakaputing damit, at sa kanilang mga ulo ay nakaputong ang mga gintong korona. 5 Mula (B) sa trono ay may nanggagaling na mga siklab ng kidlat, mga ingay at mga dagundong ng kulog. At sa harapan ng trono ay may pitong nag-aapoy na sulo. Ang mga ito'y ang pitong espiritu ng Diyos; 6 at sa (C) (D) harapan ng trono ay may tila dagat na salamin tulad ng kristal.
Sa paligid ng trono, sa bawat gilid nito ay may apat na buháy na nilalang, na puno ng mga mata sa harap at sa likod. 7 Parang leon ang unang buhay na nilalang, isang baka ang katulad ng ikalawa, ang ikatlong nilalang ay may mukhang tulad ng sa tao, at ang ikaapat ay parang isang lumilipad na agila. 8 Ang (E) bawat isa sa apat na nilalang ay may anim na pakpak, sa paligid at loob ay puno ng mga mata. Araw at gabi'y hindi sila tumitigil sa pagsasabi,
“Banal, banal, banal, ang Panginoong Diyos na Makapangyarihan sa lahat, na siyang noon, ngayon, at darating.”
9 At tuwing magbibigay ng kaluwalhatian, karangalan, at pasasalamat ang mga buháy na nilalang sa kanyang nakaupo sa trono, siyang nabubuhay magpakailanman, 10 lumuluhod ang dalawampu't apat na matatanda sa harap ng nakaupo sa trono at sumasamba sa kanyang nabubuhay magpakailanman; at inihahagis nila sa harap ng trono ang kanilang mga korona, na nagsasabi,
11 “Karapat-dapat ka, Panginoon naming Diyos,
na tumanggap ng kaluwalhatian, karangalan, at kapangyarihan,
sapagkat nilikha mo ang lahat ng bagay, at sa pamamagitan ng iyong kalooban,
sila'y nalikha at pinaiiral.”
Revelation 4
Complete Jewish Bible
4 After these things, I looked; and there before me was a door standing open in heaven; and the voice like a trumpet which I had heard speaking with me before said, “Come up here, and I will show you what must happen after these things.” 2 Instantly I was in the Spirit, and there before me in heaven stood a throne, and on the throne Someone was sitting. 3 The One sitting there gleamed like diamonds and rubies, and a rainbow shining like emerald encircled the throne.
4 Surrounding the throne were twenty-four other thrones, and on the thrones sat twenty-four elders dressed in white clothing and wearing gold crowns on their heads. 5 From the throne came forth lightnings, voices and thunderings; and before the throne were seven flaming torches, which are the sevenfold Spirit of God. 6 In front of the throne was what looked like a sea of glass, clear as crystal.
In the center, around the throne, were four living beings covered with eyes in front and behind. 7 The first living being was like a lion, the second living being was like an ox, the third living being had a face that looked human, and the fourth living being was like a flying eagle.[a] 8 Each of the four living beings had six wings[b] and was covered with eyes inside and out; and day and night they never stop saying,
“Holy, holy, holy is Adonai, God of heaven’s armies[c]
the One who was, who is and who is coming!”
9 And whenever the living beings give glory, honor and thanks to the One sitting on the throne, to the One who lives forever and ever, 10 the twenty-four elders fall down before the One sitting on the throne, who lives forever and ever, and worship him. They throw their crowns in front of the throne and say,
11 “You are worthy, Adonai Eloheinu,
to have glory, honor and power,
because you created all things —
yes, because of your will they were created
and came into being!”

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:
