1550 Stephanus New Testament
4 μετα ταυτα ειδον και ιδου θυρα ηνεωγμενη εν τω ουρανω και η φωνη η πρωτη ην ηκουσα ως σαλπιγγος λαλουσης μετ εμου λεγουσα αναβα ωδε και δειξω σοι α δει γενεσθαι μετα ταυτα
2 και ευθεως εγενομην εν πνευματι και ιδου θρονος εκειτο εν τω ουρανω και επι του θρονου καθημενος
3 και ο καθημενος ην ομοιος ορασει λιθω ιασπιδι και σαρδινω και ιρις κυκλοθεν του θρονου ομοιος ορασει σμαραγδινω
4 και κυκλοθεν του θρονου θρονοι εικοσι και τεσσαρες και επι τους θρονους ειδον τους εικοσι και τεσσαρας πρεσβυτερους καθημενους περιβεβλημενους εν ιματιοις λευκοις και εσχον επι τας κεφαλας αυτων στεφανους χρυσους
5 και εκ του θρονου εκπορευονται αστραπαι και βρονται και φωναι και επτα λαμπαδες πυρος καιομεναι ενωπιον του θρονου αι εισιν τα επτα πνευματα του θεου
6 και ενωπιον του θρονου θαλασσα υαλινη ομοια κρυσταλλω και εν μεσω του θρονου και κυκλω του θρονου τεσσαρα ζωα γεμοντα οφθαλμων εμπροσθεν και οπισθεν
7 και το ζωον το πρωτον ομοιον λεοντι και το δευτερον ζωον ομοιον μοσχω και το τριτον ζωον εχον το προσωπον ως ανθρωπος και το τεταρτον ζωον ομοιον αετω πετωμενω
8 και τεσσαρα ζωα εν καθ εαυτο ειχον ανα πτερυγας εξ κυκλοθεν και εσωθεν γεμοντα οφθαλμων και αναπαυσιν ουκ εχουσιν ημερας και νυκτος λεγοντα αγιος αγιος αγιος κυριος ο θεος ο παντοκρατωρ ο ην και ο ων και ο ερχομενος
9 και οταν δωσουσιν τα ζωα δοξαν και τιμην και ευχαριστιαν τω καθημενω επι του θρονου τω ζωντι εις τους αιωνας των αιωνων
10 πεσουνται οι εικοσι και τεσσαρες πρεσβυτεροι ενωπιον του καθημενου επι του θρονου και προσκυνουσιν τω ζωντι εις τους αιωνας των αιωνων και βαλλουσιν τους στεφανους αυτων ενωπιον του θρονου λεγοντες
11 αξιος ει κυριε λαβειν την δοξαν και την τιμην και την δυναμιν οτι συ εκτισας τα παντα και δια το θελημα σου εισιν και εκτισθησαν

Der Thron Gottes und das Buch mit den sieben Siegeln (Kapitel 4,1–8,5)
Gottes Thron
4 Danach, als ich aufblickte, sah ich am Himmel eine offene Tür. Dieselbe Stimme, die schon vorher zu mir gesprochen hatte, gewaltig wie der Schall einer Posaune, sagte: »Komm herauf! Ich will dir zeigen, was in Zukunft geschehen muss.« 2 Sofort ergriff mich Gottes Geist, und dann sah ich: Im Himmel stand ein Thron, auf dem jemand saß. 3 Die Gestalt leuchtete wie ein Edelstein, wie ein Jaspis oder Karneol. Und um den Thron strahlte ein Regenbogen, schimmernd wie lauter Smaragde.
4 Dieser Thron war von vierundzwanzig anderen Thronen umgeben, auf denen vierundzwanzig Älteste[a] saßen. Sie trugen weiße Gewänder und auf dem Kopf goldene Kronen. 5 Blitze, Donner und gewaltige Stimmen gingen von dem Thron aus. Davor brannten sieben Fackeln: Das sind die sieben Geister Gottes.[b] 6 Gleich vor dem Thron war so etwas wie ein Meer, durchsichtig wie Glas, klar wie Kristall.
Unmittelbar um den Thron herum standen vier mächtige Lebewesen, die überall mit Augen bedeckt waren. 7 Die erste dieser Gestalten sah aus wie ein Löwe, die zweite glich einem Stier; die dritte hatte ein Gesicht wie ein Mensch, und die vierte glich einem fliegenden Adler. 8 Jede dieser Gestalten hatte sechs Flügel. Auch die Flügel waren innen und außen voller Augen. Unermüdlich, Tag und Nacht, rufen sie:
»Heilig, heilig, heilig ist der Herr,
der allmächtige Gott,
der schon immer war,
der heute da ist
und der kommen wird!«
9 Diese vier Lebewesen loben und preisen den, der vor ihnen auf dem Thron sitzt und immer und ewig leben wird. 10 Und jedes Mal fallen die vierundzwanzig Ältesten dabei vor ihm nieder und beten den an, dem alle Macht gegeben ist und der ewig lebt. Sie legen ihre Kronen vor seinem Thron nieder und rufen:
11 »Dich, unseren Herrn und Gott, beten wir an.
Du allein bist würdig, Ehre und Ruhm zu empfangen
und für deine Macht gepriesen zu werden.
Denn du hast alles erschaffen.
Nach deinem Willen entstand die Welt
und alles, was auf ihr lebt.«
Footnotes
- 4,4 Im Alten Testament wurden so die Oberhäupter von Sippen, Ortschaften oder Stämmen bezeichnet, in neutestamentlicher Zeit die Leiter der christlichen Gemeinden. Wer die hier und in den übrigen Kapiteln der Offenbarung beschriebenen Ältesten sind, ist umstritten. Vielleicht sind es himmlische Wesen, die das Gottesvolk des alten und neuen Bundes repräsentieren.

Revelation 4
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.

The Throne Room of Heaven(A)
4 After these things I looked, and behold, a door standing (B)open in heaven. And the first voice which I heard was like a (C)trumpet speaking with me, saying, “Come up here, and I will show you things which must take place after this.”
2 Immediately (D)I was in the Spirit; and behold, (E)a throne set in heaven, and One sat on the throne. 3 [a]And He who sat there was (F)like a jasper and a sardius stone in appearance; (G)and there was a rainbow around the throne, in appearance like an emerald. 4 (H)Around the throne were twenty-four thrones, and on the thrones I saw twenty-four elders sitting, (I)clothed in white [b]robes; and they had crowns of gold on their heads. 5 And from the throne proceeded (J)lightnings, [c]thunderings, and voices. (K)Seven lamps of fire were burning before the throne, which are (L)the[d] seven Spirits of God.
6 Before the throne there [e]was (M)a sea of glass, like crystal. (N)And in the midst of the throne, and around the throne, were four living creatures full of eyes in front and in back. 7 (O)The first living creature was like a lion, the second living creature like a calf, the third living creature had a face like a man, and the fourth living creature was like a flying eagle. 8 The four living creatures, each having (P)six wings, were full of eyes around and within. And they do not rest day or night, saying:
9 Whenever the living creatures give glory and honor and thanks to Him who sits on the throne, (T)who lives forever and ever, 10 (U)the twenty-four elders fall down before Him who sits on the throne and worship Him who lives forever and ever, and cast their crowns before the throne, saying:
11 “You(V) are worthy, [g]O Lord,
To receive glory and honor and power;
(W)For You created all things,
And by (X)Your will they [h]exist and were created.”

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:
