Apocalipse 4
Almeida Revista e Corrigida 2009
A visão do trono da majestade divina. Os vinte e quatro anciãos e os quatro animais
4 Depois destas coisas, olhei, e eis que estava uma porta aberta no céu; e a primeira voz, que como de trombeta ouvira falar comigo, disse: Sobe aqui, e mostrar-te-ei as coisas que depois destas devem acontecer. 2 E logo fui arrebatado em espírito, e eis que um trono estava posto no céu, e um assentado sobre o trono. 3 E o que estava assentado era, na aparência, semelhante à pedra de jaspe e de sardônica; e o arco celeste estava ao redor do trono e era semelhante à esmeralda. 4 E ao redor do trono havia vinte e quatro tronos; e vi assentados sobre os tronos vinte e quatro anciãos vestidos de vestes brancas; e tinham sobre a cabeça coroas de ouro. 5 E do trono saíam relâmpagos, e trovões, e vozes; e diante do trono ardiam sete lâmpadas de fogo, as quais são os sete Espíritos de Deus. 6 E havia diante do trono um como mar de vidro, semelhante ao cristal, e, no meio do trono e ao redor do trono, quatro animais cheios de olhos por diante e por detrás. 7 E o primeiro animal era semelhante a um leão; e o segundo animal, semelhante a um bezerro; e tinha o terceiro animal o rosto como de homem; e o quarto animal era semelhante a uma águia voando. 8 E os quatro animais tinham, cada um, respectivamente, seis asas e, ao redor e por dentro, estavam cheios de olhos; e não descansam nem de dia nem de noite, dizendo: Santo, Santo, Santo é o Senhor Deus, o Todo-Poderoso, que era, e que é, e que há de vir.
9 E, quando os animais davam glória, e honra, e ações de graças ao que estava assentado sobre o trono, ao que vive para todo o sempre, 10 os vinte e quatro anciãos prostravam-se diante do que estava assentado sobre o trono, adoravam o que vive para todo o sempre e lançavam as suas coroas diante do trono, dizendo: 11 Digno és, Senhor, de receber glória, e honra, e poder, porque tu criaste todas as coisas, e por tua vontade são e foram criadas.
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.”

King James Version
4 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.
2 And immediately I was in the spirit: and, behold, a throne was set in heaven, and one sat on the throne.
3 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.
4 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.
5 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.
6 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.
7 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.
8 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.
9 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.
