Worship in Heaven
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.” 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, like jasper and carnelian in appearance. And around the throne was a rainbow that looked like an emerald. 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. 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. 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. 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 RPmg 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 RPmg 43.1%living creature was like an eagle in flight. 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 RPmg [39.6%]holy is the Lord God Almighty,
who was and who is and who is to come.”
 
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,
