天上的敬拜

這些事以後,我觀看,見天上有一道門開著;並且有我第一次聽見的那個好像號筒的聲音,對我說:“你上這裡來!我要把以後必定發生的事指示你。” 立刻,我在靈裡,就看見有一個寶座,設立在天上,有一位坐在寶座上。 那位坐著的,看來好像碧玉和紅寶石,又有彩虹圍繞著寶座,看來好像綠寶石。 寶座的周圍有二十四個座位,上面坐著二十四位長老,身穿白衣,頭戴金冠。 有閃電、響聲、雷轟從寶座中發出;又有七枝火炬在寶座前點著,這就是 神的七靈。 寶座前有一個看來好像水晶的玻璃海。

在寶座中間和寶座周圍有四個活物,前後布滿了眼睛。 第一個活物像獅子,第二個活物像牛犢,第三個活物的臉面像人,第四個活物像飛鷹。 四個活物各有六個翅膀,裡外布滿了眼睛。他們晝夜不停地說:

“聖哉!聖哉!聖哉!

主、全能的 神,

昔在、今在、以後要來的那一位。”

每逢四個活物把榮耀、尊貴、感謝獻給那坐在寶座上,活到永永遠遠的那一位的時候, 10 二十四位長老就俯伏在坐在寶座上那一位的面前,敬拜那活到永永遠遠的,又把他們的冠冕放在寶座前,說:

11 “主、我們的 神,

你是配得榮耀、尊貴、權能的,

因為你創造了萬有,

萬有都是因著你的旨意而存在,而被造的。”

天上的敬拜

此後,我再觀看,見天上有一扇門開了,又聽見剛才那個像號角般響亮的聲音對我說:「你上這裡來,我要把以後必發生的事指示給你看。」 我便立刻被聖靈感動,看見天上安設著一個寶座,有一位坐在寶座上, 閃耀著碧玉和紅寶石般的光彩。有一道翡翠般的彩虹圍繞著寶座。 寶座的周圍設有二十四個座位,有二十四位長老坐在上面,他們身穿白袍,頭戴金冠。 從寶座中有閃電、響聲、雷鳴發出,寶座前面燃燒著七把火炬,代表[a]上帝的七靈。 寶座前還有一個水晶般的玻璃海,寶座的四周有四個活物,他們前後都長滿了眼睛。 第一個活物像獅子,第二個像牛犢,第三個有人的面孔,第四個像飛鷹。 這四個活物各有三對翅膀,翅膀內外都長滿眼睛。他們晝夜不停地說:

「聖哉!聖哉!聖哉!
主上帝是昔在、今在、
以後永在的全能者。」

每逢這些活物將榮耀、尊貴、感謝獻給坐在寶座上、活到永永遠遠的那位時, 10 二十四位長老就俯伏在坐寶座的那位面前,敬拜那位永活者,又摘下他們頭上的冠冕,放在寶座前,說:

11 「我們的主,我們的上帝,
你配得榮耀、尊貴和權能,
因你創造了萬物,
萬物都因你的旨意被創造而存在。」

天上的敬拜

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。” 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, 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。 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。 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。 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。 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。 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。”

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。”

  1. 4:5 代表”希腊文是“就是”。

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.

And immediately I was in the spirit: and, behold, a throne was set in heaven, and one sat on the throne.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.
