啟示錄 4
Chinese Contemporary Bible (Traditional)
天上的敬拜
4 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。」 2 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， 3 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。 4 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。 5 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。 6 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。 7 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。 8 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。」
9 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。」

天上的宝座
4 这些事以后，我观看，看哪，天上有一个敞开的门。我先前所听见的，那如同号角对我说话的声音就说：“你上到这里来！我要把此后必须发生的事指示给你。”
2 我立刻就在灵里了，看哪，有一个宝座安放在天上，有一位坐在宝座上。 3 坐着的那一位，[a]看起来仿佛碧玉和红宝石；又有一道彩虹[b]围着宝座，看起来仿佛绿宝石。 4 座位[c]的周围，还有二十四个座位[d]；[e]在那些宝座上，坐着二十四位长老，身穿白衣，头戴金冠冕； 5 从宝座中发出闪电、声音和雷鸣；在宝座前，有七支燃烧着的火把，就是神的七个灵； 6 宝座前面，好像玻璃海，仿佛水晶；在宝座中间和宝座周围，有四个活物，遍体前后布满眼睛。 7 第一个活物仿佛狮子，第二个活物仿佛牛犊，第三个活物有像人一样的脸，第四个活物仿佛飞翔的鹰。 8 那四个活物，各个都有六个翅膀，遍体内外都布满了眼睛。他们日夜不停地[f]说：
9 每当四个活物把荣耀、尊贵和感谢归给坐在宝座上、活到永永远远的那一位时， 10 二十四位长老就俯伏在坐宝座的那一位面前，敬拜活到永永远远的那一位，并且把自己的冠冕放在宝座前，说：
11 “我们的主、我们的神哪[i]，
你配接受荣耀、尊贵和权能，
因为你创造了万有；
万有是因着你的旨意而存在、被创造的。”
Revelation 4
New King James Version
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.”
