9After this I looked, and behold, a great multitude that no one could number, from every nation, from all tribes and peoples and languages, standing before the throne and before the Lamb, clothed in white robes, with palm branches in their hands,9After these things, I looked, and there was a crowd so large that no one was able to count it! They were from every nation, tribe, people, and language. They were standing in front of the throne and the lamb and were wearing white robes, with palm branches in their hands.
10and crying out with a loud voice, “Salvation belongs to our God who sits on the throne, and to the Lamb!”10They cried out in a loud voice, "Salvation belongs to our God, who sits on the throne, and to the lamb!"
11And all the angels were standing around the throne and around the elders and the four living creatures, and they fell on their faces before the throne and worshiped God,11All the angels stood around the throne and around the elders and the four living creatures. They fell on their faces in front of the throne and worshipped God,
12saying, “Amen! Blessing and glory and wisdom and thanksgiving and honor and power and might be to our God forever and ever! Amen.”12saying, "Amen! Praise, glory, wisdom, thanks, honor, power, and strength be to our God forever and ever! Amen!"
13Then one of the elders addressed me, saying, “Who are these, clothed in white robes, and from where have they come?”13"Who are these people wearing white robes," one of the elders asked me, "and where did they come from?"
14I said to him, “Sir, you know.” And he said to me, “These are the ones coming out of the great tribulation. They have washed their robes and made them white in the blood of the Lamb.14I told him, "Sir, you know." Then he told me, "These are the people who are coming out of the terrible suffering. They have washed their robes and made them white in the blood of the lamb.
15“Therefore they are before the throne of God, and serve him day and night in his temple; and he who sits on the throne will shelter them with his presence.15That is why: "They are in front of the throne of God and worship him night and day in his Temple. The one who sits on the throne will shelter them.
16They shall hunger no more, neither thirst anymore; the sun shall not strike them, nor any scorching heat.16They will never be hungry or thirsty again. Neither the sun nor its heat will ever beat down on them,
17For the Lamb in the midst of the throne will be their shepherd, and he will guide them to springs of living water, and God will wipe away every tear from their eyes.”17because the lamb in the center of the throne will be their shepherd. He will lead them to springs filled with the water of life, and God will wipe every tear from their eyes."
