Revelation of John 7

And after these things I saw four angels standing on the four corners of the earth, holding the four winds of the earth, that the wind should not blow on the earth, nor on the sea, nor on any tree.

Og derefter så jeg fire Engle stå på Jordens fire Hjørner; de holdt ordens fire Vinde; for at ingen Vind skulde blæse over Jorden, ej heller over Havet, ej heller over noget Træ.

And I saw another angel ascending from the east, having the seal of the living God: and he cried with a loud voice to the four angels, to whom it was given to hurt the earth and the sea,

Og jeg så en anden Engel stige op fra Solens Opgang med den levende Guds Segl; og han råbte med høj Røst til de fire Engle, hvem det var givet at skade Jorden og Havet, og sagde:

Saying, Hurt not the earth, neither the sea, nor the trees, till we have sealed the servants of our God in their foreheads.

Skader ikke Jorden, ej heller Havet, ej heller Træerne, førend vi have beseglet vor Guds Tjenere på deres Pander.

And I heard the number of them which were sealed: and there were sealed an hundred and forty and four thousand of all the tribes of the children of Israel.

Og jeg hørte Tallet på de beseglede, hundrede og fire og fyrretyve Tusinde beseglede af alle Israels Børns Stammer:

Of the tribe of Juda were sealed twelve thousand. Of the tribe of Reuben were sealed twelve thousand. Of the tribe of Gad were sealed twelve thousand.

af Judas Stamme tolv Tusinde beseglede, af Rubens Stamme tolv Tusinde, af Gads Stamme tolv Tusinde,

Of the tribe of Aser were sealed twelve thousand. Of the tribe of Nepthalim were sealed twelve thousand. Of the tribe of Manasses were sealed twelve thousand.

af Asers Stamme tolv Tusinde, af Nafthalis Stamme tolv Tusinde, af Manasses Stamme tolv Tusinde,

Of the tribe of Simeon were sealed twelve thousand. Of the tribe of Levi were sealed twelve thousand. Of the tribe of Issachar were sealed twelve thousand.

af Simeons Stamme tolv Tusinde, af Levis Stamme tolv Tusinde, af Issakars Stamme tolv Tusinde

Of the tribe of Zabulon were sealed twelve thousand. Of the tribe of Joseph were sealed twelve thousand. Of the tribe of Benjamin were sealed twelve thousand.

af Sebulons Stamme tolv Tusinde, af Josefs Stamme tolv Tusinde og af Benjamins Stamme tolv Tusinde beseglede.

After this I beheld, and, lo, a great multitude, which no man could number, of all nations, and kindreds, and people, and tongues, stood before the throne, and before the Lamb, clothed with white robes, and palms in their hands;

Derefter så jeg, og se en stor Skare, som ingen kunde tælle, af alle Folkeslag og Stammer og Folk og Tungemål, som stod for Tronen og for Lammet, iførte lange, hvide Klæder og med Palmegrene i deres Hænder;

And cried with a loud voice, saying, Salvation to our God which sitteth upon the throne, and unto the Lamb.

og de råbte med høj Røst og sagde: Frelsen tilhører vor Gud, som sidder på Tronen, og Lammet!

And all the angels stood round about the throne, and about the elders and the four beasts, and fell before the throne on their faces, and worshipped God,

Og alle Englene stode rundt om Tronen og om de Ældste og om de fire Væsener og faldt ned for Tronen på deres Ansigt og tilbade Gud og sagde:

Saying, Amen: Blessing, and glory, and wisdom, and thanksgiving, and honour, and power, and might, be unto our God for ever and ever. Amen.

Amen! Velsignelsen og Prisen og Visdommen og Taksigelsen og Æren og Kraften og Styrken tilhører vor Gud i Evighedernes Evigheder! Amen.

And one of the elders answered, saying unto me, What are these which are arrayed in white robes? and whence came they?

Og en af de Ældste tog til Orde og sagde til mig: Disse, som ere iførte de lange, hvide Klæder, hvem ere de? og hvorfra ere de komne?

And I said unto him, Sir, thou knowest. And he said to me, These are they which came out of great tribulation, and have washed their robes, and made them white in the blood of the Lamb.

Og jeg sagde til ham: Min Herre! du ved det. Og han sagde til mig: Det er dem, som komme ud af den store Trængsel, og de have tvættet deres Klæder og gjort dem hvide i Lammets Blod.

Therefore are they before the throne of God, and serve him day and night in his temple: and he that sitteth on the throne shall dwell among them.

Derfor ere de foran Guds Trone og tjene ham Dag og Nat i hans Tempel; og han, som sidder på Tronen, skal opslå sit Telt over dem.

They shall hunger no more, neither thirst any more; neither shall the sun light on them, nor any heat.

De skulle ikke hungre mere, ej heller tørste mere, ej heller skal Solen eller nogen Hede falde på dem.

For the Lamb which is in the midst of the throne shall feed them, and shall lead them unto living fountains of waters: and God shall wipe away all tears from their eyes.

Thi Lammet, som er midt for Tronen, skal vogte dem og lede dem til Livets Vandkilder; og Gud skal aftørre hver Tåre af deres Øjne.
