Then I heard something like (A)the voice of a great crowd and like (B)the sound of many waters and like the (C)sound of mighty peals of thunder, saying,

(D)Hallelujah! For the (E)Lord our God, the Almighty, reigns.

The Marriage Supper of the Lamb

Let us rejoice and be glad and (F)give the glory to Him, for (G)the marriage of the Lamb has come and His [a](H)bride has made herself ready.” And it was given to her to clothe herself in (I)fine linen, bright and clean; for the fine linen is the (J)righteous acts of the saints.

Then (K)he *said to me, “(L)Write, ‘(M)Blessed are those who are invited to the marriage supper of the Lamb.’” And he *said to me, “(N)These are true words of God.” 10 Then (O)I fell at his feet to worship him. (P)But he *said to me, “[b]Do not do that! I am a (Q)fellow slave with you and your brothers who (R)have the witness of Jesus. Worship God! For the witness of Jesus is the spirit of prophecy.”

The Wedding Supper of the Lamb

And I heard what seemed to be the roar of a large crowd or the roar of many waters or the sound of loud rumblings of thunder, saying:

Alleluia!
For the Lord our[a] God, the Almighty, reigns.
Let us rejoice and be glad and give him glory,
        because the wedding of the Lamb has come.
His bride has made herself ready,
and she was given bright, clean, fine linen to wear.
(In fact, the fine linen is the “not guilty” verdicts pronounced on the saints.)

The angel said to me, “Write: Blessed are those who are invited to the wedding supper of the Lamb.” He also said to me, “These are the true words of God.” 10 And I bowed down at his feet to worship him. But he said to me, “Do not do it! I am a fellow servant with you and your brothers, who have the testimony about Jesus. Worship God. For the testimony about Jesus is the spirit of prophecy.”
