Revelation 4

1 After these things I saw, and behold, a door opened in heaven, and the first voice which I heard as of a trumpet speaking with me, saying, Come up here, and I will shew thee the things which must take place after these things.

ⲁ̅ⲙⲉⲛⲉⲛⲥⲁ ⲛⲁⲓ ⲇⲉ ⲁⲓⲛⲁⲩ ϩⲏⲡⲡⲉ ⲓⲥ ⲟⲩⲣⲟ ⲉϥⲟⲩⲏⲛ ϧⲉⲛ ⳿ⲧⲫⲉ ⲟⲩⲟϩ ϯ⳿ⲥⲙⲏ ⳿ⲛϩⲟⲩⲓϯ ⳿ⲉⲛⲁⲥⲥⲁϫⲓ ⲛⲉⲙⲏⲓ ⲑⲏ ⲉⲧⲁⲓⲥⲟⲑⲙⲉⲥ ⳿ⲙ⳿ⲫⲣⲏϯ ⳿ⲛ⳿ⲧ⳿ⲥⲙⲏ ⳿ⲛⲟⲩⲥⲁⲗⲡⲓⲅⲝ ⲉⲥⲥⲁϫⲓ ⲛⲉⲙⲏⲓ ⲉⲥϫⲱ ⳿ⲙⲙⲟⲥ ϫⲉ ⳿ⲁⲙⲟⲩ ⳿ⲉ⳿ⲡϣⲱⲓ ⳿ⲙⲛⲁⲓ ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⳿ⲛⲧⲁⲧⲁⲙⲟⲕ ⳿ⲉⲛⲏⲉⲑⲛⲁϣⲱⲡⲓ ⲙⲉⲛⲉⲛⲥⲁ ⲛⲁⲓ.

2 Immediately I became in [the] Spirit; and behold, a throne stood in the heaven, and upon the throne one sitting,

ⲃ̅ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⲁⲓϣⲱⲡⲓ ϧⲉⲛ ⲡⲓⲡ͞ⲛⲁ̅ ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⲁⲓⲛⲁⲩ ϩⲏⲡⲡⲉ ⲓⲥ ⲟⲩ⳿ⲑⲣⲟⲛⲟⲥ ⲉϥϧⲉⲛ ⳿ⲧⲫⲉ.

3 and he [that was] sitting like in appearance to a stone [of] jasper and a sardius, and a rainbow round the throne like in appearance to an emerald.

4 And round the throne twenty-four thrones, and on the thrones twenty-four elders sitting, clothed with white garments; and on their heads golden crowns.

5 And out of the throne go forth lightnings, and voices, and thunders; and seven lamps of fire, burning before the throne, which are the seven Spirits of God;

6 and before the throne, as a glass sea, like crystal. And in the midst of the throne, and around the throne, four living creatures, full of eyes, before and behind;

7 and the first living creature like a lion, and the second living creature like a calf, and the third living creature having the face as of a man, and the fourth living creature like a flying eagle.

8 And the four living creatures, each one of them having respectively six wings; round and within they are full of eyes; and they cease not day and night saying, Holy, holy, holy, Lord God Almighty, who was, and who is, and who is to come.

10 the twenty-four elders shall fall before him that sits upon the throne, and do homage to him that lives to the ages of ages; and shall cast their crowns before the throne, saying, (aiōn g165)
