启示录 4
Chinese New Version (Simplified)
天上的敬拜
4 这些事以后,我观看,见天上有一道门开着;并且有我第一次听见的那个好象号筒的声音,对我说:“你上这里来!我要把以后必定发生的事指示你。” 2 立刻,我在灵里,就看见有一个宝座,设立在天上,有一位坐在宝座上。 3 那位坐着的,看来好象碧玉和红宝石,又有彩虹围绕着宝座,看来好象绿宝石。 4 宝座的周围有二十四个座位,上面坐着二十四位长老,身穿白衣,头戴金冠。 5 有闪电、响声、雷轰从宝座中发出;又有七枝火炬在宝座前点着,这就是 神的七灵。 6 宝座前有一个看来好象水晶的玻璃海。
在宝座中间和宝座周围有四个活物,前后布满了眼睛。 7 第一个活物像狮子,第二个活物像牛犊,第三个活物的脸面像人,第四个活物像飞鹰。 8 四个活物各有六个翅膀,里外布满了眼睛。他们昼夜不停地说:
“圣哉!圣哉!圣哉!
主、全能的 神,
昔在、今在、以后要来的那一位。”
9 每逢四个活物把荣耀、尊贵、感谢献给那坐在宝座上,活到永永远远的那一位的时候, 10 二十四位长老就俯伏在坐在宝座上那一位的面前,敬拜那活到永永远远的,又把他们的冠冕放在宝座前,说:
11 “主、我们的 神,
你是配得荣耀、尊贵、权能的,
因为你创造了万有,
万有都是因着你的旨意而存在,而被造的。”
Revelation 4
Darby Translation
4 After these things I saw, and behold, a door opened in heaven, and the first voice which I heard as of a trumpet speaking with me, saying, Come up here, and I will shew thee the things which must take place after these things.
2 Immediately I became in [the] Spirit; and behold, a throne stood in the heaven, and upon the throne one sitting,
3 and he [that was] sitting like in appearance to a stone [of] jasper and a sardius, and a rainbow round the throne like in appearance to an emerald.
4 And round the throne twenty-four thrones, and on the thrones twenty-four elders sitting, clothed with white garments; and on their heads golden crowns.
5 And out of the throne go forth lightnings, and voices, and thunders; and seven lamps of fire, burning before the throne, which are the seven Spirits of God;
6 and before the throne, as a glass sea, like crystal. And in the midst of the throne, and around the throne, four living creatures, full of eyes, before and behind;
7 and the first living creature like a lion, and the second living creature like a calf, and the third living creature having the face as of a man, and the fourth living creature like a flying eagle.
8 And the four living creatures, each one of them having respectively six wings; round and within they are full of eyes; and they cease not day and night saying, Holy, holy, holy, Lord God Almighty, who was, and who is, and who is to come.
9 And when the living creatures shall give glory and honour and thanksgiving to him that sits upon the throne, who lives to the ages of ages,
10 the twenty-four elders shall fall before him that sits upon the throne, and do homage to him that lives to the ages of ages; and shall cast their crowns before the throne, saying,
11 Thou art worthy, O our Lord and [our] God, to receive glory and honour and power; for *thou* hast created all things, and for thy will they were, and they have been created.
Revelation 4
New International Version
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:
