Revelation 4
Complete Jewish Bible
4 After these things, I looked; and there before me was a door standing open in heaven; and the voice like a trumpet which I had heard speaking with me before said, “Come up here, and I will show you what must happen after these things.” 2 Instantly I was in the Spirit, and there before me in heaven stood a throne, and on the throne Someone was sitting. 3 The One sitting there gleamed like diamonds and rubies, and a rainbow shining like emerald encircled the throne.
4 Surrounding the throne were twenty-four other thrones, and on the thrones sat twenty-four elders dressed in white clothing and wearing gold crowns on their heads. 5 From the throne came forth lightnings, voices and thunderings; and before the throne were seven flaming torches, which are the sevenfold Spirit of God. 6 In front of the throne was what looked like a sea of glass, clear as crystal.
In the center, around the throne, were four living beings covered with eyes in front and behind. 7 The first living being was like a lion, the second living being was like an ox, the third living being had a face that looked human, and the fourth living being was like a flying eagle.[a] 8 Each of the four living beings had six wings[b] and was covered with eyes inside and out; and day and night they never stop saying,
“Holy, holy, holy is Adonai, God of heaven’s armies[c]
the One who was, who is and who is coming!”
9 And whenever the living beings give glory, honor and thanks to the One sitting on the throne, to the One who lives forever and ever, 10 the twenty-four elders fall down before the One sitting on the throne, who lives forever and ever, and worship him. They throw their crowns in front of the throne and say,
11 “You are worthy, Adonai Eloheinu,
to have glory, honor and power,
because you created all things —
yes, because of your will they were created
and came into being!”

Marathi Bible: Easy-to-Read Version
योहान स्वर्ग पाहतो
4 तेव्हा मी पाहिले आणि स्वर्गात दार माझ्यासमोर उघडलेले दिसले. आणि अगोदर जसा आवाज मी माझ्याशी बोलताना ऐकला होता तसाच आवाज मी ऐकला. तो आवाज कर्ण्याच्या आवाजासारखा होता. तो आवाज म्हणाला, “इकडे ये, आणि मी तुला यानंतर जे घडणार आहे ते दाखवितो.” 2 त्याच क्षणी आत्म्याने माझा ताबा घेतला. तेथे स्वर्गात माझ्यासमोर सिंहासन होते. कोणी एक त्यावर बसलेले होते. 3 त्यावर जो बसला होता तो यास्फे व सार्दी या रत्नांसारखा होता आणि सिंहासनाभोवती पाचूसारखे दिसणारे मेघधनुष्य होते.
4 सिंहासनाभोवती चोवीस आसने होती, आणि त्या आसनांवर शुभ्र कपडे घातलेले व डोक्यावर सोन्याचा मुगुट असलेले चोवीस वडील बसले होते. 5 सिंहासनापासून विजा व भिन्न आवाज निघत होते. शिवाय गडगडाट निघत होते. सिंहासनासमोर सात दिवे जळत होते. ते देवाचे सात आत्मे होते. 6 तसेच सिंहासनासमोर काचेच्या समुद्रासारखे काहीतरी दिसत होते. ते स्फटिकासारखे स्पष्ट होते.
मध्यभागी, सिंहासनाभोवती चार जिवंत प्राणी होते आणि ते डोळ्यांनी भरले होते. पुढे डोळा, मागे डोळे. 7 पहिला जिवंत प्राणी सिंहासारखा होता. दुसरा बैलासारखा होता. तिसऱ्याचा चेहरा मनुष्यासारखा होता. आणि चवथा उडत्या गरुडासारखा होता. 8 त्या प्रत्येक जिवंत प्राण्याला सहा पंख होते. व त्यांना सगळीकडे डोळे होते. त्यांच्या पंखाखालीसुद्धा डोळे होते. दिवस व रात्र न थांबता ते म्हणत होते:
“पवित्र, पवित्र, पवित्र, हा प्रभु देव सर्वसमर्थ
जो होता, जो आहे, आणि जो येणार आहे.”
9 जेव्हा जेव्हा ते जिवंत प्राणी सिंहासनावर बसलेल्याचा गौरव, सन्मान व उपकारस्तुति करीत होते आणि व जो सिंहासनावर बसलेला होता तो अनंतकाळपर्यंत जगत राहणारा आहे, 10 तेव्हा तेव्हा जो सिंहासनावर बसला होता आणि अनंतकाळपर्यंत राहतो त्याच्यासमोर चोवीस वडील पाया पडत होते आणि त्याची उपासना करीत होते. ते आपले मुगुट सिंहासनासमोर ठेवत होते. व म्हणत होते की:
11 “आमचा प्रभु आणि देव!
तू गौरव, सन्मान आणि सामर्थ्य प्राप्त करुन घेण्यास योग्य आहेस.
तू सर्व काही तयार केलेस
तुला वाटत होते म्हणून सर्व काही अस्तित्वात आले आणि करण्यात आले.”
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.

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.”
