十四万四千以色列人

这之后,我又看见四个天使站在大地的四角。他们挡住了地球四面的风,不让风吹到陆上、海上或树上。 然后,我看见另一个天使从东方走来,他拿着活生生的上帝的印,大声呼唤那四个被赋予了毁坏大地和海洋的权力的天使。 他说∶“在我们给上帝的仆人的前额盖印之前,不要伤害地球、海洋和树木。” 前额上被盖了印的人的总数为:以色列各支派共十四万四千人,他们来自于以色列每个不同的支派:

犹大支派一万二千人;

流便支派一万二千人;

迦得支派一万二千人;

亚设支派一万二千人;

拿弗他利支派一万二千人;

玛拿西支派一万二千人;

西缅支派一万二千人;

利未支派一万二千人;

以萨迦支派一万二千人;

西布伦支派一万二千人;

约瑟支派一万二千人;

便雅悯支派一万二千人。

众人

接着,我看见面前有一大群人,谁也数不清有多少。这些人来自各个国家、各个支派、各个民族,说各种语言。他们站在宝座和羔羊面前,身穿白袍,手拿棕榈枝, 10 他们呼喊道∶“胜利属于宝座上的上帝,胜利属于羔羊!” 11 所有的天使都站在宝座、长老和四个生物的四周。他们在宝座前以面伏地,敬拜上帝。 12 他们说∶“阿们!愿赞美、荣耀、智慧、感恩、尊崇、权力和力量永远属于上帝,阿们!”

13 一位长老问我∶“那些穿白袍的人是谁?他们是从哪里来的?”

14 我回答说∶“先生,您知道他们是谁。”于是,他对我说∶“他们经历了大迫害,他们用羔羊的血,把自己的长袍洗得干净洁白。 [a] 15 所以他们站在上帝的宝座前,日夜在他的殿里敬拜他。宝座上的人会庇护他们, 16 让他们不再饥渴,不再让骄阳、烈炎灼伤他们。 17 宝座前中间的羔羊会牧养他们,领他们到赋予生命的泉水那里去。上帝会擦去他们的每一滴泪水。”

144,000 Sealed

After this I saw four angels standing at the four corners(A) of the earth, holding back the four winds(B) of the earth to prevent(C) any wind from blowing on the land or on the sea or on any tree. Then I saw another angel coming up from the east, having the seal(D) of the living God.(E) He called out in a loud voice to the four angels who had been given power to harm the land and the sea:(F) “Do not harm(G) the land or the sea or the trees until we put a seal on the foreheads(H) of the servants of our God.” Then I heard the number(I) of those who were sealed: 144,000(J) from all the tribes of Israel.

From the tribe of Judah 12,000 were sealed,

from the tribe of Reuben 12,000,

from the tribe of Gad 12,000,

from the tribe of Asher 12,000,

from the tribe of Naphtali 12,000,

from the tribe of Manasseh 12,000,

from the tribe of Simeon 12,000,

from the tribe of Levi 12,000,

from the tribe of Issachar 12,000,

from the tribe of Zebulun 12,000,

from the tribe of Joseph 12,000,

The Great Multitude in White Robes

After this I looked, and there before me was a great multitude that no one could count, from every nation, tribe, people and language,(K) standing before the throne(L) and before the Lamb. They were wearing white robes(M) and were holding palm branches in their hands. 10 And they cried out in a loud voice:

“Salvation belongs to our God,(N)
who sits on the throne,(O)
and to the Lamb.”

11 All the angels were standing around the throne and around the elders(P) and the four living creatures.(Q) They fell down on their faces(R) before the throne and worshiped God, 12 saying:

“Amen!
Praise and glory
and wisdom and thanks and honor
and power and strength
be to our God for ever and ever.
Amen!”(S)

13 Then one of the elders asked me, “These in white robes(T)—who are they, and where did they come from?”

14 I answered, “Sir, you know.”

And he said, “These are they who have come out of the great tribulation; they have washed their robes(U) and made them white in the blood of the Lamb.(V) 15 Therefore,

“they are before the throne of God(W)
    and serve him(X) day and night in his temple;(Y)
and he who sits on the throne(Z)
    will shelter them with his presence.(AA)
16 ‘Never again will they hunger;
    never again will they thirst.(AB)
The sun will not beat down on them,’[a]
    nor any scorching heat.(AC)
17 For the Lamb at the center of the throne
    will be their shepherd;(AD)
‘he will lead them to springs of living water.’[b](AE)
    ‘And God will wipe away every tear from their eyes.’[c](AF)
