A Multitude from the Tribulation

⁹ After these things I looked, and behold, a great multitude which no one could count, from ^(A)every nation and all the tribes, peoples, and languages, standing ^(B)before the throne and ^(C)before the Lamb, clothed in ^(D)white robes, and ^(E)palm branches were in their hands; ¹⁰ and they *cried out with a loud voice, saying,

¹⁵ For this reason they are ^(A)before the throne of God, and they ^(B)serve Him day and night in His ^[a](C)temple; and ^(D)He who sits on the throne will spread His ^(E)tabernacle over them. ^16 (F)They will no longer hunger nor thirst, nor will the sun ^[b]beat down on them, nor any scorching heat; ¹⁷ for the Lamb in the center of the throne will be their ^(G)shepherd, and will guide them to springs of the ^[c](H)water of life; and ^(I)God will wipe every tear from their eyes.”
