Apocalipsis 4
Nueva Biblia de las Américas
Visión del trono de Dios
4 Después de esto miré(A), y vi una puerta abierta en el cielo(B). Y la primera voz que yo había oído, como sonido de trompeta(C) que hablaba conmigo, decía: «Sube(D) acá y te mostraré las cosas que deben suceder después de estas(E)». 2 Al instante estaba yo en el Espíritu(F), y vi un trono colocado en el cielo(G), y a Uno sentado en el trono(H). 3 El que estaba sentado era de aspecto semejante a una piedra de jaspe(I) y sardio[a](J), y alrededor del trono había un arco iris[b](K), de aspecto semejante a la esmeralda(L). 4 Y alrededor del trono(M) había veinticuatro tronos(N). Y sentados(O) en los tronos, veinticuatro ancianos(P) vestidos de ropas blancas(Q), con coronas de oro en la cabeza(R). 5 Del trono salían relámpagos(S), voces[c], y truenos. Delante del trono había siete lámparas(T) de fuego ardiendo, que son los siete Espíritus de Dios(U).
6 Delante del trono había como un mar transparente semejante al cristal(V); y en medio del trono y alrededor del trono(W), cuatro seres vivientes(X) llenos de ojos por delante y por detrás(Y). 7 El primer ser viviente era semejante a un león; el segundo ser era semejante a un becerro; el tercer ser tenía el rostro como el de un hombre, y el cuarto ser era semejante a un águila volando(Z). 8 Los cuatro seres vivientes(AA), cada uno de ellos con[d] seis alas(AB), estaban llenos de ojos alrededor y por dentro(AC), y día y noche(AD) no cesaban de decir[e]:
«Santo, Santo, Santo es el Señor(AE) Dios, el Todopoderoso(AF), el que era, el que es y el que ha de venir(AG)».
9 Y cada vez que[f] los seres vivientes dan gloria, honor, y acción de gracias a Aquel que está sentado en el trono(AH), al que vive por los siglos de los siglos(AI), 10 los veinticuatro ancianos(AJ) se postran[g] delante de Aquel(AK) que está sentado en el trono(AL), y adoran[h] a Aquel que vive por los siglos de los siglos(AM), y echan[i] sus coronas delante del trono(AN), diciendo:
11 «Digno eres, Señor y Dios nuestro, de recibir la gloria y el honor y el poder(AO), porque Tú creaste todas las cosas(AP), y por Tu voluntad existen[j] y fueron creadas».
Revelation 4
Wycliffe Bible
4 After these things I saw, and lo! a door was opened in heaven. And the first voice that I heard, was as of a trumpet speaking with me, and said, Ascend thou up hither [And the first voice that I heard, was as of a trump speaking with me, saying, Ascend up hither], and I shall show to thee which things it behooveth to be done soon after these things.
2 And at once [And anon] I was in Spirit, and lo! a seat was set in heaven, and upon the seat one sitting [and on the seat one sitting].
3 And he that sat, was like [to] the sight of a stone jasper, and to sardine; and a rainbow was in [the] compass of the seat, like [to] the sight of emerald [like to the sight of smaragdus].
4 And in the compass of the seat were four and twenty small seats; and above the thrones four and twenty elder men sitting, covered about with white clothes [And in compass of the seat were four and twenty small seats; and upon the thrones four and twenty elders sitting, girded about with white clothes], and in the heads of them golden crowns.
5 And lightnings, and voices, and thunderings came out of the throne; and seven lamps burning before the throne, which be the seven spirits of God.
6 And before the seat as a sea of glass, like [to] crystal, and in the middle of the seat, and in the compass [and in compass] of the seat, [were] four beasts full of eyes before and behind.
7 And the first beast like a lion; and the second beast like a calf; and the third beast having a face as of a man [and the third beast having a face as a man]; and the fourth beast like an eagle flying.
8 And the four beasts had each of them six wings; and all about [and in compass] and within they were full of eyes; and they had not rest day and night, saying, Holy, holy, holy, the Lord God almighty, that was, and that is, and that is to coming [and that is to come].
9 And when those four beasts gave glory, and honour, and blessing to him that sat on the throne, that liveth into worlds of worlds,
10 the four and twenty elder men [the four and twenty elders] fell down before him that sat on the throne, and worshipped him that liveth into worlds of worlds. And they cast their crowns before the throne, and said [saying],
11 Thou, Lord our God, art worthy to take glory, and honour, and virtue; for thou madest of nought all things, and for thy will those were [and for thy will they were], and be made of nought.
Revelation 4
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.
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.”
