De etthundrafyrtiofyra tusen
7 Sedan såg jag fyra änglar stå vid jordens fyra hörn och hålla tillbaka jordens fyra vindar, så att ingen vind skulle blåsa över jorden eller över havet eller mot något träd. 2 Och jag såg också en annan ängel med den levande Gudens sigill stiga upp från öster. Han ropade med hög röst till de fyra änglarna som hade fått makt att skada jorden och havet: 3 "Skada inte jorden eller havet eller träden, förrän vi har satt sigill på vår Guds tjänare, på deras pannor." 4 Och jag hörde antalet av dem som var försedda med sigill: etthundrafyrtiofyra tusen ur Israels alla stammar, 5 av Juda stam tolv tusen försedda med sigill, av Rubens stam tolv tusen, av Gads stam tolv tusen, 6 av Asers stam tolv tusen, av Naftalis stam tolv tusen, av Manasses stam tolv tusen, 7 av Simeons stam tolv tusen, av Levis stam tolv tusen, av Isaskars stam tolv tusen, 8 av Sebulons stam tolv tusen, av Josefs stam tolv tusen och av Benjamins stam tolv tusen försedda med sigill.
Den stora vita skaran
9 Därefter såg jag, och se: en stor skara som ingen kunde räkna, av alla folkslag och stammar och länder och språk. De stod inför tronen och inför Lammet, klädda i vita kläder och med palmblad i händerna. 10 Och de ropade med hög röst:
"Frälsningen tillhör vår Gud, honom som sitter på tronen,
och Lammet."
11 Och alla änglar stod runt omkring tronen och kring de äldste och de fyra väsendena, och de föll ner på sina ansikten inför tronen och tillbad Gud 12 och sade:
"Amen. Lovet och priset,
visheten och tacksägelsen, äran, makten och väldet
tillhör vår Gud i evigheternas evigheter.
Amen."
13 En av de äldste frågade mig: "Dessa som är klädda i vita kläder, vilka är de och varifrån har de kommit?" 14 Jag svarade: "Min herre, du vet det." Då sade han till mig: "Dessa är de som kommer ur den stora nöden, och de har tvättat sina kläder och gjort dem vita i Lammets blod. 15 Därför står de inför Guds tron och tjänar honom dag och natt i hans tempel, och han som sitter på tronen skall slå upp sitt tabernakel[a] över dem. 16 De skall aldrig mer hungra eller törsta, inte heller skall solen eller någon annan hetta träffa dem. 17 Ty Lammet som står mitt för tronen skall vara deras herde och leda dem till livets vattenkällor, och Gud skall torka bort alla tårar från deras ögon."

144,000 Sealed
7 After this I saw four angels standing at the four corners(A) of the earth, holding back the four winds(B) of the earth to prevent(C) any wind from blowing on the land or on the sea or on any tree. 2 Then I saw another angel coming up from the east, having the seal(D) of the living God.(E) He called out in a loud voice to the four angels who had been given power to harm the land and the sea:(F) 3 “Do not harm(G) the land or the sea or the trees until we put a seal on the foreheads(H) of the servants of our God.” 4 Then I heard the number(I) of those who were sealed: 144,000(J) from all the tribes of Israel.
5 From the tribe of Judah 12,000 were sealed,
from the tribe of Reuben 12,000,
from the tribe of Gad 12,000,
6 from the tribe of Asher 12,000,
from the tribe of Naphtali 12,000,
from the tribe of Manasseh 12,000,
7 from the tribe of Simeon 12,000,
from the tribe of Levi 12,000,
from the tribe of Issachar 12,000,
8 from the tribe of Zebulun 12,000,
from the tribe of Joseph 12,000,
from the tribe of Benjamin 12,000.
The Great Multitude in White Robes
9 After this I looked, and there before me was a great multitude that no one could count, from every nation, tribe, people and language,(K) standing before the throne(L) and before the Lamb. They were wearing white robes(M) and were holding palm branches in their hands. 10 And they cried out in a loud voice:
11 All the angels were standing around the throne and around the elders(P) and the four living creatures.(Q) They fell down on their faces(R) before the throne and worshiped God, 12 saying:
“Amen!
Praise and glory
and wisdom and thanks and honor
and power and strength
be to our God for ever and ever.
Amen!”(S)
13 Then one of the elders asked me, “These in white robes(T)—who are they, and where did they come from?”
14 I answered, “Sir, you know.”
And he said, “These are they who have come out of the great tribulation; they have washed their robes(U) and made them white in the blood of the Lamb.(V) 15 Therefore,
“they are before the throne of God(W)
and serve him(X) day and night in his temple;(Y)
and he who sits on the throne(Z)
will shelter them with his presence.(AA)
16 ‘Never again will they hunger;
never again will they thirst.(AB)
The sun will not beat down on them,’[a]
nor any scorching heat.(AC)
17 For the Lamb at the center of the throne
will be their shepherd;(AD)
‘he will lead them to springs of living water.’[b](AE)
‘And God will wipe away every tear from their eyes.’[c]”(AF)

The 144,000 of Israel Sealed
7 After this I saw four angels standing at the four corners of the earth, holding back (A)the four winds of the earth, (B)that no wind might blow on earth or sea or against any tree. 2 Then I saw another angel ascending (C)from the rising of the sun, with (D)the seal of the living God, and he called with a loud voice to the four angels who had been given power to harm earth and sea, 3 saying, (E)“Do not harm the earth or the sea or the trees, until we have sealed the servants of our God (F)on their foreheads.” 4 And (G)I heard the number of the sealed, 144,000, sealed from every tribe of the sons of Israel:
5 12,000 from the tribe of Judah were sealed,
12,000 from the tribe of Reuben,
12,000 from the tribe of Gad,
6 12,000 from the tribe of Asher,

8 12,000 from the tribe of Zebulun,
12,000 from the tribe of Joseph,

A Great Multitude from Every Nation
9 After this I looked, and behold, (H)a great multitude that no one could number, (I)from every nation, from all tribes and peoples and languages, standing before the throne and before the Lamb, (J)clothed in white robes, with (K)palm branches in their hands, 10 and crying out with a loud voice, (L)“Salvation belongs to our God who sits on the throne, and to the Lamb!” 11 And all the angels were standing around the throne and around the elders and (M)the four living creatures, and they (N)fell on their faces before the throne and worshiped God, 12 (O)saying, “Amen! Blessing and glory and wisdom and thanksgiving and honor and power and might be to our God forever and ever! Amen.”
13 Then one of the elders addressed me, saying, “Who are these, (P)clothed in white robes, and from where have they come?” 14 I said to him, “Sir, you know.” And he said to me, “These are the ones coming out of (Q)the great tribulation. (R)They have washed their robes and (S)made them white (T)in the blood of the Lamb.
15 “Therefore they are before the throne of God,
and (U)serve him day and night in his temple;
and he who sits on the throne (V)will shelter them with his presence.
16 (W)They shall hunger no more, neither thirst anymore;
(X)the sun shall not strike them,
nor any scorching heat.
17 For the Lamb in the midst of the throne (Y)will be their shepherd,
and he will guide them to springs of (Z)living water,
and (AA)God will wipe away every tear from their eyes.”
