Revised Common Lectionary (Complementary)

¹³ And one of the elders spoke, saying to me, Who are these who are arrayed in long white garments, and where are they from? ¹⁴ And I said to him, Lord, you know. And he said to me, They are those who came out of great tribulation, and made their garments large, and made them white in the blood of the Lamb. ¹⁵ Therefore they are in the presence of the seat of God and serve him day and night in his temple. And he who sits in the seat will dwell among them. ¹⁶ They will hunger no more, neither thirst; nor will the sun light on them, nor any heat. ¹⁷ For the Lamb who is at the centre of the seat shall feed them, and shall lead them to fountains of living water, and God shall wipe away all tears from their eyes.
