A Multitude from the Great Tribulation
9 After these things I looked, and behold, (F)a great multitude which no one could number, (G)of all nations, tribes, peoples, and tongues, standing before the throne and before the Lamb, (H)clothed with white robes, with palm branches in their hands, 10 and crying out with a loud voice, saying, (I)“Salvation belongs to our God (J)who sits on the throne, and to the Lamb!” 11 (K)All the angels stood around the throne and the elders and the four living creatures, and fell on their faces before the throne and (L)worshiped God, 12 (M)saying:
“Amen! Blessing and glory and wisdom,
Thanksgiving and honor and power and might,
Be to our God forever and ever.
Amen.”
13 Then one of the elders answered, saying to me, “Who are these arrayed in (N)white robes, and where did they come from?”
14 And I said to him, [b]“Sir, you know.”
So he said to me, (O)“These are the ones who come out of the great tribulation, and (P)washed their robes and made them white in the blood of the Lamb. 15 Therefore they are before the throne of God, and serve Him day and night in His temple. And He who sits on the throne will (Q)dwell among them. 16 (R)They shall neither hunger anymore nor thirst anymore; (S)the sun shall not strike them, nor any heat; 17 for the Lamb who is in the midst of the throne (T)will shepherd them and lead them to [c]living fountains of waters. (U)And God will wipe away every tear from their eyes.”

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,(E) standing before the throne(F) and before the Lamb. They were wearing white robes(G) 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(J) and the four living creatures.(K) They fell down on their faces(L) 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!”(M)
13 Then one of the elders asked me, “These in white robes(N)—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(O) and made them white in the blood of the Lamb.(P) 15 Therefore,
“they are before the throne of God(Q)
and serve him(R) day and night in his temple;(S)
and he who sits on the throne(T)
will shelter them with his presence.(U)
16 ‘Never again will they hunger;
never again will they thirst.(V)
The sun will not beat down on them,’[a]
nor any scorching heat.(W)
17 For the Lamb at the center of the throne
will be their shepherd;(X)
‘he will lead them to springs of living water.’[b](Y)
‘And God will wipe away every tear from their eyes.’[c]”(Z)

6 And I looked, [b]and behold, in the midst of the throne and of the four living creatures, and in the midst of the elders, stood (F)a Lamb as though it had been slain, having seven horns and (G)seven eyes, which are (H)the seven Spirits of God sent out into all the earth. 7 Then He came and took the scroll out of the right hand (I)of Him who sat on the throne.
Worthy Is the Lamb
8 Now when He had taken the scroll, (J)the four living creatures and the twenty-four elders fell down before the Lamb, each having a harp, and golden bowls full of incense, which are the (K)prayers of the saints. 9 And (L)they sang a new song, saying:
(M)“You are worthy to take the scroll,
And to open its seals;
For You were slain,
And (N)have redeemed us to God (O)by Your blood
Out of every tribe and tongue and people and nation,
