Revelation 4:5-11
New King James Version
5 And from the throne proceeded (A)lightnings, [a]thunderings, and voices. (B)Seven lamps of fire were burning before the throne, which are (C)the[b] seven Spirits of God.
6 Before the throne there [c]was (D)a sea of glass, like crystal. (E)And in the midst of the throne, and around the throne, were four living creatures full of eyes in front and in back. 7 (F)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 (G)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, (K)who lives forever and ever, 10 (L)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(M) are worthy, [e]O Lord,
To receive glory and honor and power;
(N)For You created all things,
And by (O)Your will they [f]exist and were created.”
