< Revelation 4 >

1 After these things, I saw, and behold, a door was opened in heaven, and the voice that I heard speaking with me first was like a trumpet, saying: “Ascend to here, and I will reveal to you what must occur after these things.”
μετα ταυτα ειδον και ιδου θυρα ανεωγμενη εν τω ουρανω και η φωνη η πρωτη ην ηκουσα ωσ σαλπιγγοσ λαλουσησ μετ εμου λεγων αναβα ωδε και δειξω σοι α δει γενεσθαι μετα ταυτα
2 And immediately I was in the Spirit. And behold, a throne had been placed in heaven, and there was One sitting upon the throne.
και ευθεωσ εγενομην εν πνευματι και ιδου θρονοσ εκειτο εν τω ουρανω και επι τον θρονον καθημενοσ
3 And the One who was sitting there was similar in appearance to a stone of jasper and sardius. And there was an iridescence surrounding the throne, in aspect similar to an emerald.
ομοιοσ ορασει λιθω ιασπιδι και σαρδιω και ιρισ κυκλοθεν του θρονου ομοιωσ ορασισ σμαραγδινων
4 And surrounding the throne were twenty-four smaller thrones. And upon the thrones, twenty-four elders were sitting, clothed entirely in white vestments, and on their heads were gold crowns.
και κυκλοθεν του θρονου θρονοι εικοσι τεσσαρεσ και επι τουσ θρονουσ τουσ εικοσι τεσσαρασ πρεσβυτερουσ καθημενουσ περιβεβλημενουσ εν ιματιοισ λευκοισ και επι τασ κεφαλασ αυτων στεφανουσ χρυσουσ
5 And from the throne, lightnings and voices and thunders went forth. And there were seven burning lamps before the throne, which are the seven spirits of God.
και εκ του θρονου εκπορευονται αστραπαι και φωναι και βρονται και επτα λαμπαδεσ πυροσ καιομεναι ενωπιον του θρονου αυτου αι εισιν επτα πνευματα του θεου
6 And in view of the throne, there was something that seemed like a sea of glass, similar to crystal. And in the middle of the throne, and all around the throne, there were four living creatures, full of eyes in front and in back.
και ενωπιον του θρονου ωσ θαλασσα υαλινη ομοια κρυσταλλω και εν μεσω του θρονου και κυκλω του θρονου τεσσαρα ζωα γεμοντα οφθαλμων εμπροσθεν και οπισθεν
7 And the first living creature resembled a lion, and the second living creature resembled a calf, and the third living creature had a face like a man, and the fourth living creature resembled a flying eagle.
και το ζωον το πρωτον ομοιον λεοντι και το δευτερον ζωον ομοιον μοσχω και το τριτον ζωον εχον προσωπον ανθρωπου και το τεταρτον ζωον ομοιον αετω πετομενω
8 And each of the four living creatures had upon them six wings, and all around and within they are full of eyes. And they took no rest, day or night, from saying: “Holy, Holy, Holy is the Lord God Almighty, who was, and who is, and who is to come.”
και τα τεσσαρα ζωα εν καθ εν εχον ανα πτερυγασ εξ κυκλοθεν και εσωθεν γεμουσιν οφθαλμων και αναπαυσιν ουκ εχουσιν ημερασ και νυκτοσ λεγοντεσ αγιοσ αγιοσ αγιοσ κυριοσ ο θεοσ ο παντοκρατωρ ο ην και ο ων και ο ερχομενοσ
9 And while those living creatures were giving glory and honor and blessings to the One sitting upon the throne, who lives forever and ever, (aiōn g165)
και οταν δωσιν τα ζωα δοξαν και τιμην και ευχαριστιαν τω καθημενω επι του θρονου τω ζωντι εισ τουσ αιωνασ των αιωνων (aiōn g165)
10 the twenty-four elders fell prostrate before the One sitting upon the throne, and they adored him who lives forever and ever, and they cast their crowns before the throne, saying: (aiōn g165)
πεσουνται οι εικοσι τεσσαρεσ πρεσβυτεροι ενωπιον του καθημενου επι του θρονου και προσκυνησουσιν τω ζωντι εισ τουσ αιωνασ των αιωνων και βαλουσιν τουσ στεφανουσ αυτων ενωπιον του θρονου λεγοντεσ (aiōn g165)
11 “You are worthy, O Lord our God, to receive glory and honor and power. For you have created all things, and they became and were created because of your will.”
αξιοσ ει ο κυριοσ και ο θεοσ ημων ο αγιοσ λαβειν την δοξαν και την τιμην και την δυναμιν οτι συ εκτισασ παντα και δια το θελημα σου ησαν και εκτισθησαν
