Revelation 19:6-10
English Standard Version
The Marriage Supper of the Lamb
6 Then I heard what seemed to be (A)the voice of a great multitude, like (B)the roar of many waters and (C)like the sound of mighty peals of thunder, crying out,
“Hallelujah!
For the Lord our God
the Almighty (D)reigns.
7 Let us rejoice and exult
and give him the glory,
for (E)the marriage of the Lamb has come,
and (F)his Bride has made herself ready;
8 (G)it was granted her to clothe herself
with fine linen, bright and pure”—
for the fine linen is (H)the righteous deeds of the saints.
9 And the angel said[a] to me, “Write this: (I)Blessed are those who are invited to the marriage supper of the Lamb.” And he said to me, (J)“These are the true words of God.” 10 Then (K)I fell down at his feet to worship him, (L)but he said to me, “You must not do that! I am a fellow servant with you and your brothers who hold to (M)the testimony of Jesus. Worship God.” For the testimony of Jesus is the spirit of prophecy.

Revelation 19:6-10
New Living Translation
6 Then I heard again what sounded like the shout of a vast crowd or the roar of mighty ocean waves or the crash of loud thunder:
“Praise the Lord!
For the Lord our God,[a] the Almighty, reigns.
7 Let us be glad and rejoice,
and let us give honor to him.
For the time has come for the wedding feast of the Lamb,
and his bride has prepared herself.
8 She has been given the finest of pure white linen to wear.”
For the fine linen represents the good deeds of God’s holy people.
9 And the angel said to me, “Write this: Blessed are those who are invited to the wedding feast of the Lamb.” And he added, “These are true words that come from God.”
10 Then I fell down at his feet to worship him, but he said, “No, don’t worship me. I am a servant of God, just like you and your brothers and sisters[b] who testify about their faith in Jesus. Worship only God. For the essence of prophecy is to give a clear witness for Jesus.[c]”
