< Revelation 4 >

1 After these things I saw, and lo, a door opened in the heaven, and the first voice that I heard [is] as of a trumpet speaking with me, saying, 'Come up hither, and I will shew thee what it behoveth to come to pass after these things;'
Muri iho i enei mea ka kite ahau, na, he tatau kua oti te whakapuare i te rangi, a ko te reo tuatahi i rongo ai ahau me te mea he reo no tetahi tetere e ki mai ana ki ahau, e mea ana, Haere mai ki runga nei, a ka whakakitea e ahau ki a koe nga me a kua takoto mo muri i enei.
2 and immediately I was in the Spirit, and lo, a throne was set in the heaven, and upon the throne is [one] sitting,
I reira pu ano kua nohoia ahau e te Wairua: na, he torona kua tu ki te rangi, a ko tetahi i runga i te torona e noho ana;
3 and He who is sitting was in sight like a stone, jasper and sardine: and a rainbow was round the throne in sight like an emerald.
A ko tera i noho ra rite tonu ki te titiro atu ki te kohatu hahapa, ki te harariu: he aniwaniwa hoki i nga taha katoa o te torona, ko te ahua ki te titiro atu kei to te emerara.
4 And around the throne [are] thrones twenty and four, and upon the thrones I saw the twenty and four elders sitting, clothed in white garments, and they had upon their heads crowns of gold;
Na i nga taha katoa o te torona etahi torona e rua tekau ma wha: a ka kite ahau i runga i nga torona ko nga kaumatua e rua tekau ma wha e noho ana, he mea whakakakahu ki te kakahu ma; he karauna koura i runga i o ratou matenga.
5 and out of the throne proceed do lightnings, and thunders, and voices; and seven lamps of fire are burning before the throne, which are the Seven Spirits of God,
Na ka puta mai i roto i te torona he uira, he reo, he whatitiri. A tera nga rama ahi e whitu e ka ana i mua i te torona; ko nga Wairua e whitu enei o te Atua;
6 and before the throne [is] a sea of glass like to crystal, and in the midst of the throne, and round the throne, [are] four living creatures, full of eyes before and behind;
I mua i te torona ano he moana karaihe, te rite kei te haupapa: a i waenganui o te torona, i nga taha katoa ano o te torona, ko nga mea ora e wha, kapi tonu a mua, a muri o ratou i te kanohi.
7 and the first living creature [is] like a lion, and the second living creature [is] like a calf, and the third living creature hath the face as a man, and the fourth living creature [is] like an eagle flying.
Ko te tuatahi o nga mea ora i rite ki te raiona, ko te tuarua o nga mea ora i rite ki te kuao kau, ko te mata o te tuatoru o nga mea ora i rite ki to te tangata, a ko te tuawha o nga mea ora i rite ki te ekara e rere ana.
8 And the four living creatures, each by itself severally, had six wings, around and within [are] full of eyes, and rest they have not day and night, saying, 'Holy, holy, holy, Lord God Almighty, who was, and who is, and who is coming;'
Na, ko aua mea ora e wha, he parirau o ratou, e ono o tena, o tena, i nga taha katoa; ki tonu hoki a roto o ratou me nga taha i te kanohi: a kahore he tanga i te ao, i te po, he mea tonu ta ratou, Tapu, tapu, tapu, te Ariki, te Atua Kaha Rawa, i mua nei ia, tenei ano inaianei, a e haere mai nei.
9 and when the living creatures do give glory, and honour, and thanks, to Him who is sitting upon the throne, who is living to the ages of the ages, (aiōn g165)
A i te mea ka hoatu e nga mea ora te kororia, te honore, te whakawhetai ki tera e noho ana i runga i te torona, e ora ana ake ake, (aiōn g165)
10 fall down do the twenty and four elders before Him who is sitting upon the throne, and bow before Him who is living to the ages of the ages, and they cast their crowns before the throne, saying, (aiōn g165)
Ka hinga iho nga kaumatua e rua tekau ma wha ki te aroaro o tera e noho ra i runga i te torona, na ka koropiko ki a ia e ora tonu nei ake ake, ka panga hoki i o ratou karauna ki mua o te torona, ka mea, (aiōn g165)
11 'Worthy art Thou, O Lord, to receive the glory, and the honour, and the power, because Thou — Thou didst create the all things, and because of Thy will are they, and they were created.'
Tika tonu, e te Ariki, kia riro i a koe te kororia, me te honore, me te kaha: nau hoki i hanga nga mea katoa, a nau i pai i takoto ai aua mea, i hanga ai.
