< Revelation 7 >

1 And after this I saw four angels standing on the four corners of the earth, holding the four winds of the earth, so that no wind should blow upon the earth, nor on the sea, nor on any tree.
ⲁ̅ⲙⲉⲛⲉⲛⲥⲁ ⲛⲁⲓ ⲇⲉ ⲁⲓⲛⲁⲩ ⳿ⲉⲇ̅ ⳿ⲛⲁⲅⲅⲉⲗⲟⲥ ⲉⲩⲟϩⲓ ⳿ⲉⲣⲁⲧⲟⲩ ϩⲓϫⲉⲛ ⲡⲓ⳿ϥⲧⲟⲩ ⲗⲁⲕϩ ⳿ⲛⲧⲉ ⳿ⲡⲕⲁϩⲓ ⲉⲩ⳿ⲁⲙⲟⲛⲓ ⳿ⲙⲡⲓ⳿ϥⲧⲟⲩ ⲑⲏⲟⲩ ϩⲓⲛⲁ ⳿ⲛⲧⲟⲩ⳿ϣⲧⲉⲙⲛⲓϥⲓ ⳿ⲛϫⲉ ⲛⲓⲑⲏⲟⲩ ϩⲓϫⲉⲛ ⳿ⲡⲕⲁϩⲓ ⲟⲩⲇⲉ ϩⲓϫⲉⲛ ⳿ⲫⲓⲟⲙ ⲟⲩⲇⲉ ϩⲓϫⲉⲛ ⲛⲓⲓⲁⲣⲱⲟⲩ ⲟⲩⲇⲉ ϩⲓϫⲉⲛ ⲛⲓ⳿ϣϣⲏⲛ.
2 And I saw another angel ascending from the sun's rising, having the seal of the Living God. And he cried out with a loud voice to the four angels, to whom it had been granted to harm the earth and the sea,

4 And I heard the number of those who were sealed, one hundred and forty four thousand, sealed out of every tribe of the sons of Israel:

9 After these things I looked, and wow, a great multitude that no one could number, from all ethnic nations and tribes and peoples and languages, standing before the Throne and before the Lamb, clothed with white robes and having palm branches in their hands.

10 And they shouted with a loud voice saying, “Saved by our God who sits on the throne, and by the Lamb!”

11 And all the angels stood around the Throne, and the elders and the four living beings, and they fell down before the Throne, on their faces, and worshiped God,
ⲓ̅ⲁ̅ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⲛⲓⲁⲅⲅⲉⲗⲟⲥ ⲧⲏⲣⲟⲩ ⲛⲁⲩⲟϩⲓ ⳿ⲉⲣⲁⲧⲟⲩ ⳿ⲙⲡⲉ⳿ⲙⲑⲟ ⳿ⲙⲡⲓ⳿ⲑⲣⲟⲛⲟⲥ ⲛⲉⲙ ⲛⲓ⳿ⲡⲣⲉⲥⲃⲩⲧⲉⲣⲟⲥ ⲛⲉⲙ ⲡⲓⲇ̅ ⳿ⲛⲍⲱⲟⲛ ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⲁⲩϩⲓⲧⲟⲩ ⲉⲡⲉⲥⲏⲧ ϩⲓϫⲉⲛ ⲡⲟⲩϩⲟ ⳿ⲙⲡⲉ⳿ⲙⲑⲟ ⳿ⲙⲡⲓ⳿ⲑⲣⲟⲛⲟⲥ ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⲁⲩⲟⲩⲱϣⲧ ⳿ⲙⲫϯ.
12 saying: “Amen! The blessing and the glory and the wisdom and the thanksgiving and the honor and the power and the strength to our God for ever and ever! Amen.” (aiōn g165)

13 And one of the elders reacted, saying to me, “Who are these that are clothed in the white robes, and where did they come from?”
ⲓ̅ⲅ̅ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⲁϥⲉⲣⲟⲩⲱ ⳿ⲛϫⲉ ⲟⲩⲁⲓ ⳿ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ϧⲉⲛ ⲛⲓ⳿ⲡⲣⲉⲥⲃⲩⲧⲉⲣⲟⲥ ⲡⲉϫⲁϥ ⲛⲏⲓ ϫⲉ ⲛⲓⲙ ⲛⲉ ⲛⲁⲓ ⲉⲧⲉ ⲛⲁⲓ⳿ϩⲃⲱⲥ ⳿ⲛⲟⲩⲱⲃϣ ⲧⲟⲓ ϩⲓⲱⲧⲟⲩ ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⲉⲧⲁⲩ⳿ⲓ ⳿ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ⲑⲱⲛ.
14 So I said to him, “My lord, you know.” So he said to me: “These are those who come out of the Great Tribulation—they washed their robes and made them white in the blood of the Lamb.

15 Therefore they are before the throne of God, and they serve Him day and night in His sanctuary. And He who sits on the throne will shelter them.
