Revelation chapter 4

Updated: Jul 24, 2022

Literal translation of the Greek:

Revelation 4

1 After these I beheld and saw a door open up in heaven and the voice of the First Whom I heard as a trumpet spoke with me saying rise up(ascend) here and I will show you what must be after these

2 and straight away I was in spirit and saw a throne set in the heaven and upon the throne One sitting

3 and the One sitting, He appeared like a stone of jasper and sardius and a rainbow all around the throne appeared like an emerald

4 and all around the throne twenty-four thrones and upon the thrones I saw the twenty-four elders(or first ones) sitting clothed in white robes and they have upon their heads golden crowns

5 and from the throne lightning came out and thunder sounded and seven lamps of fire(as lightning) burnt before the throne which are the seven spirits(or breaths) of God

6 and before the throne a sea of glass like crystal and in the middle of the throne and around the throne four beings full of eyes in front and behind

7 and the first being was like a lion and the second being was like a calf and the third being had the appearance like a man and the fourth being like a flying eagle

8 and the four beings in themselves each have six wings all around and within are full of eyes and do not have rest day or night saying holy, holy, holy Lord God Almighty who was and is and is to come

9 and while the beings gave glory and honour and giving thanks, He Who sits on the throne Who lives unto the ages of the ages(expression meaning forever and ever)

10 They fell, the twenty-four elders(or first ones) before He Who sits upon the throne and they praised He Who lives unto the ages of the ages(forever and ever) and threw down their crowns before the throne saying

11 worthy is the Lord to take the glory and the honour and the power because You are the Creator of all and through Your will they exist and they were created.


Textus Receptus Greek:

Rev 4:1  μετα ταυτα ειδον και ιδου θυρα ηνεωγμενη εν τω ουρανω και η φωνη η πρωτη ην ηκουσα ως σαλπιγγος λαλουσης μετ εμου λεγουσα αναβα ωδε και δειξω σοι α δει γενεσθαι μετα ταυτα 

Rev 4:2  και ευθεως εγενομην εν πνευματι και ιδου θρονος εκειτο εν τω ουρανω και επι του θρονου καθημενος 

Rev 4:3  και ο καθημενος ην ομοιος ορασει λιθω ιασπιδι και σαρδινω και ιρις κυκλοθεν του θρονου ομοια ορασει σμαραγδινω 

Rev 4:4  και κυκλοθεν του θρονου θρονοι εικοσι και τεσσαρες και επι τους θρονους ειδον τους εικοσι και τεσσαρας πρεσβυτερους καθημενους περιβεβλημενους εν ιματιοις λευκοις και εσχον επι τας κεφαλας αυτων στεφανους χρυσους 

Rev 4:5  και εκ του θρονου εκπορευονται αστραπαι και βρονται και φωναι και επτα λαμπαδες πυρος καιομεναι ενωπιον του θρονου αι εισιν τα επτα πνευματα του θεου 

Rev 4:6  και ενωπιον του θρονου θαλασσα υαλινη ομοια κρυσταλλω και εν μεσω του θρονου και κυκλω του θρονου τεσσαρα ζωα γεμοντα οφθαλμων εμπροσθεν και οπισθεν 

Rev 4:7  και το ζωον το πρωτον ομοιον λεοντι και το δευτερον ζωον ομοιον μοσχω και το τριτον ζωον εχον το προσωπον ως ανθρωπος και το τεταρτον ζωον ομοιον αετω πετωμενω 

Rev 4:8  και τεσσαρα ζωα εν καθ εαυτο ειχον ανα πτερυγας εξ κυκλοθεν και εσωθεν γεμοντα οφθαλμων και αναπαυσιν ουκ εχουσιν ημερας και νυκτος λεγοντα αγιος αγιος αγιος κυριος ο θεος ο παντοκρατωρ ο ην και ο ων και ο ερχομενος 

Rev 4:9  και οταν δωσουσιν τα ζωα δοξαν και τιμην και ευχαριστιαν τω καθημενω επι του θρονου τω ζωντι εις τους αιωνας των αιωνων 

Rev 4:10  πεσουνται οι εικοσι και τεσσαρες πρεσβυτεροι ενωπιον του καθημενου επι του θρονου και προσκυνουσιν τω ζωντι εις τους αιωνας των αιωνων και βαλλουσιν τους στεφανους αυτων ενωπιον του θρονου λεγοντες 

Rev 4:11  αξιος ει κυριε λαβειν την δοξαν και την τιμην και την δυναμιν οτι συ εκτισας τα παντα και δια το θελημα σου εισιν και εκτισθησαν
