Pahayag 7
Ang Salita ng Diyos
Tinatakan ng Diyos ang Isangdaan at Apatnapu’t Apat na Libong Tao
7 Pagkatapos ng mga bagay na ito, nakita ko ang apat na anghel na nakatayo sa apat na sulok ng lupa. Pinipigil nila ang apat na hangin ng lupa upang walang hanging makaihip sa lupa o sa dagat o sa anumang punong-kahoy.
2 At nakita ko ang isa pang anghel na pumapaitaas mula sa sinisilangan ng araw. Nasa kaniya ang tatak ng buhay na Diyos. Siya ay sumigaw ng isang malakas na tinig at nagsalita sa apat na mga anghel na binigyan ng kapangyarihan upang saktan ang lupa at ang dagat. 3 Sinabi ng anghel sa kanila: Huwag ninyong saktan ang lupa o ang dagat o ang mga punong-kahoy hanggang hindi namin natatatakan sa noo ang mga alipin ng aming Diyos. 4 Narinig ko ang bilang ng mga natatakan. Ang bilang ay isangdaan apatnapu’t apat na libo na tinatakan mula sa bawat lipi ng mga taga-Israel.
5 Labindalawang libo ang tinatakan nila mula sa lipi ni Juda. Labindalawang libo ang tinatakan nila mula sa lipi ni Ruben. Labindalawang libo ang tinatakan nila mula sa lipi ni Gad. 6 Labindalawang libo ang tinatakan nila mula sa lipi ni Aser. Labindalawang libo ang tinatakan nila mula sa lipi ni Neftali. Labindalawang libo ang tinatakan nila mula sa lipi ni Manases. 7 Labindalawang libo ang tinatakan nila mula sa lipi ni Simeon. Labindalawang libo ang tinatakan nila mula sa lipi ni Levi. Labindalawang libo ang tinatakan nila mula sa lipi ni Isacar. 8 Labindalawang libo ang tinatakan nila mula sa lipi ni Zabulon. Labindalawang libo ang tinatakan nila mula sa lipi ni Jose. Labindalawang libo ang tinatakan nila mula sa lipi ni Benjamin.
Ang Maraming Taong Nakasuot ng Puting Damit
9 Pagkatapos kong makita ang mga bagay na ito, narito,ang napakaraming taong naroroon na walang sinumang makakabilang sa kanila. Sila ay mula sa bawat bansa, bawat lipi at bawat wika. Nakatayo sila sa harap ng trono at sa harap ng Kordero. Sila ay nakasuot ng maputing damit at may hawak na mga palaspas.
10 Sila ay sumisigaw ng isang malakas na tinig. Sinabi nila:
Ang kaligtasan ay sa kaniya na nakaupo sa trono at sa Kordero.
11 At ang lahat ng anghel at mga matanda at ang apat na kinapal na buhay ay nakatayo sa palibot ng trono. Sila ay nagpatirapa sa harap ng trono at sinamba ang Diyos. 12 Sinabi nila:
Siya nawa. Pagpapala at kaluwalhatian at karunungan at pasasalamat at karangalan at kapangyarihan at kalakasan sa ating Diyos magpakailan pa man. Siya nawa.
13 At isa sa mga matanda ang sumagot. Sinabi niya sa akin: Sino ang mga taong ito na nakasuot ng mapuputing damit? Saan sila nanggaling?
14 At sinabi ko sa kaniya: Ginoo, nalalaman mo iyan.
Sinabi niya sa akin: Sila ang mga nanggaling sa dakilang paghihirap. Hinugasan nila ang kanilang mga damit at pinaputi ang mga ito ng dugo ng kordero.
15 Dahil dito:
Sila ay nasa harapan ng trono ng Diyos. Pinaglilingkuran nila siya araw at gabi sa kaniyang banal na dako. Ang nakaupo sa trono ay mananahang kasama nila.
16 Kailanman ay hindi na sila magugutom at kailanman ay hindi na sila mauuhaw. Hindi na sila maiinitan ng sikat ng araw ni wala ng matinding init ang tatama sa kanila. 17 Ito ay sapagkat ang Korderong nasa gitna ng trono ang siyang mangangalaga sa kanila. Aakayin niya sila sa buhay na bukal ng tubig. At papahirin ng Diyos ang bawat luha sa kanilang mga mata.

The 144,000
7 After this I saw (A)four angels standing at the (B)four corners of the earth, holding back (C)the four winds of the earth, (D)so that no wind would blow on the earth or on the sea or on any tree. 2 Then I saw another angel ascending (E)from the rising of the sun, having the (F)seal of (G)the living God; and he cried out with a loud voice to the (H)four angels to whom it was granted to harm the earth and the sea, 3 saying, “(I)Do not harm the earth or the sea or the trees until we have (J)sealed the slaves of our God on their (K)foreheads.”
4 And I heard the (L)number of those having been sealed, (M)144,000 sealed from every tribe of the sons of Israel:
5 from the tribe of Judah, 12,000 having been sealed,
from the tribe of Reuben 12,000,
from the tribe of Gad 12,000,
6 from the tribe of Asher 12,000,
from the tribe of Naphtali 12,000,
from the tribe of Manasseh 12,000,
7 from the tribe of Simeon 12,000,
from the tribe of Levi 12,000,
from the tribe of Issachar 12,000,
8 from the tribe of Zebulun 12,000,
from the tribe of Joseph 12,000,
from the tribe of Benjamin, 12,000 having been sealed.
A Multitude from Every Nation
9 After these things I looked, and behold, a great [a]multitude which no one could count, from (N)every nation and all tribes and peoples and tongues, standing (O)before the throne and (P)before the Lamb, clothed in (Q)white robes, and (R)palm branches were in their hands; 10 and they cry out with a loud voice, saying,
“(S)Salvation belongs to our God (T)who sits on the throne, and to the Lamb.” 11 And all the angels were standing (U)around the throne and (V)the elders and the (W)four living creatures, and they (X)fell on their faces before the throne and worshiped God, 12 saying,
“(Y)Amen, (Z)the blessing and the glory and the wisdom and the thanksgiving and the honor and the power and the strength, be to our God forever and ever. (AA)Amen.”
13 Then one of the elders (AB)answered, saying to me, “These, clothed in the (AC)white robes, who are they, and from where have they come?” 14 And I [b]said to him, “My lord, you know.” And he said to me, “These are the ones who come out of the (AD)great tribulation, and they (AE)washed their robes and made them (AF)white in the (AG)blood of the Lamb. 15 For this reason, they are (AH)before the throne of God; and they (AI)serve Him day and night in His [c](AJ)sanctuary; and (AK)He who sits on the throne will [d](AL)dwell over them. 16 (AM)They will hunger no longer, nor thirst anymore; nor will the sun [e]beat down on them, nor any heat; 17 for the Lamb at the center of the throne will (AN)shepherd them and will guide them to springs of the [f](AO)water of life. And (AP)God will wipe every tear from their eyes.”

144,000 Sealed
7 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. 2 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) 3 “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.” 4 Then I heard the number(I) of those who were sealed: 144,000(J) from all the tribes of Israel.

The Great Multitude in White Robes
9 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:
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)
