Dios Habla Hoy
Apocalipsis 4
Dios Habla Hoy
Visión preparatoria
4 Después de esto, miré y vi una puerta abierta en el cielo; y la voz que yo había escuchado primero, y que parecía un toque de trompeta, me dijo: «Sube acá y te mostraré las cosas que tienen que suceder después de éstas.»
2 En ese momento quedé bajo el poder del Espíritu, y vi un trono puesto en el cielo, y alguien estaba sentado en el trono. 3 El que estaba sentado en el trono tenía el aspecto de un diamante o de un rubí, y alrededor del trono había un arco iris que brillaba como una esmeralda; 4 también alrededor del trono vi otros veinticuatro tronos, en los cuales estaban sentados veinticuatro ancianos: iban vestidos de blanco y llevaban una corona de oro en la cabeza. 5 Del trono salían relámpagos, voces y truenos; y delante del trono ardían siete antorchas de fuego, que son los siete espíritus de Dios. 6 Delante del trono había también algo que parecía un mar, transparente como el cristal.
En el centro, donde estaba el trono, y a su alrededor, había cuatro seres vivientes llenos de ojos por delante y por detrás. 7 El primero de aquellos seres parecía un león, el segundo parecía un toro, el tercero tenía aspecto humano, y el cuarto parecía un águila volando. 8 Cada uno de los cuatro seres vivientes tenía seis alas, y estaba cubierto de ojos por fuera y por dentro. Y ni de día ni de noche dejaban de decir:
«¡Santo, santo, santo es el Señor,
Dios todopoderoso,
el que era y es y ha de venir!»
9-10 Cada vez que esos seres vivientes dan gloria y honor y gracias al que está sentado en el trono, al que vive por todos los siglos, los veinticuatro ancianos se arrodillan ante él y lo adoran y, arrojando sus coronas delante del trono, dicen:
11 «Tú eres digno, Señor y Dios nuestro,
de recibir la gloria, el honor y el poder,
porque tú has creado todas las cosas;
por tu voluntad existen y han sido creadas.»

John Sees Heaven
4 After this I looked, and there before me was an open door in heaven. And I heard the same voice that spoke to me before. It was the voice that sounded like a trumpet. The voice said, “Come up here, and I will show you what must happen after this.” 2 Then the Spirit took control of me. There before me was a throne in heaven. Someone was sitting on the throne. 3 The One who sat on the throne looked like precious stones, like jasper and carnelian. All around the throne was a rainbow the color of an emerald. 4 Around the throne there were 24 other thrones. There were 24 elders[a] sitting on the 24 thrones. The elders were dressed in white, and they had golden crowns on their heads. 5 Lightning flashes and noises of thunder came from the throne. Before the throne there were seven lamps burning. These lamps are the seven spirits of God. 6 Also before the throne there was something that looked like a sea of glass. It was clear like crystal.
Around the throne, on each side, there were four living things. These living things had eyes all over them, in front and in back. 7 The first living thing was like a lion. The second was like a calf. The third had a face like a man. The fourth was like a flying eagle. 8 Each of these four living things had six wings. The living things were covered all over with eyes, inside and out. Day and night they never stop saying:
“Holy, holy, holy is the Lord God All-Powerful.
He was, he is, and he is coming.”
9 These living things give glory and honor and thanks to the One who sits on the throne. He is the One who lives forever and ever. And every time the living things do this, 10 the 24 elders bow down before the One who sits on the throne. The elders worship him who lives forever and ever. They put their crowns down before the throne and say:
11 “Our Lord and God! You are worthy
to receive glory and honor and power.
You made all things.
Everything existed and was made
because you wanted it.”

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:
