Worship in Heaven
1 After this I looked, and behold, a door was standing open in heaven! And the voice I had previously heard speaking to me like a trumpet said, β€œCome up here, and I will show yoΚ‹ what must take place after this.” 2 Immediately I was in the Spirit, and behold, there was a throne in heaven, with one sitting on the *throne, like 𝔐A,C,K 79.2% Β¦ throne. He who was sitting on it was like CT 15.1% β€’ TR 2.7%throne, 3 like jasper and carnelian in appearance. And around the throne was a rainbow that looked like an emerald. 4 Surrounding the throne were twenty-four other thrones, and †sitting on the thrones were the twenty-four elders 𝔐K [51.8%] Β¦ sitting on the thrones were twenty-four elders 𝔐A ECM† NA SBL TH WH [26.6%] Β¦ I saw the twenty-four elders sitting on the thrones 𝔐C ECM† PCK TR [14.7%]sitting on the thrones were the twenty-four elders. They were clothed in white garments and had golden crowns on their heads. 5 From the throne came flashes of lightning, ‑rumblings, and peals of thunder 𝔐A,C,K [89.9%] Β¦ peals of thunder, and rumblings TR [9.2%]rumblings, and peals of thunder, and there were seven flaming torches burning before the throne; these are the seven spirits of God. 6 Also before the throne was Β§something like 𝔐A+,C,K [86.2%] Β¦ β€” 𝔐Aβˆ’ TR [13.8%]something like a sea of glass that looked like crystal.
Around the throne on each side were four living creatures, full of eyes in front and in back. 7 The first living creature was like a lion, the second living creature was like a calf, the third living creature had *the face of 𝔐K 44.9% Β¦ a face like 𝔐A,C ECM† PCK TR 38.3% Β¦ a face like that of ANT ECM† NA SBL TH WH 1.6%the face of a man, and the fourth †living creature 𝔐A,C 54.1% Β¦ β€” 𝔐K HF 43.1%living creature was like an eagle in flight. 8 Each of the four living creatures had six wings and was covered with eyes all around and within. Day and night they never stop saying,
 
β€œHoly, holy, ‑holy 𝔐A,Kβˆ’ [53.9%] Β¦ holy; holy, holy, holy; holy, holy, holy 𝔐C,K+ HF PCK [39.6%]holy is the Lord God Almighty,
who was and who is and who is to come.”
 
9 And whenever the living creatures give glory, honor, and thanks to him who sits on the throne, who lives forever and ever, 10 the twenty-four elders fall down before him who sits on the throne and worship him who lives forever and ever. They cast their crowns before the throne and say,
