Revelation 7:9-17 — Legacy Standard Bible

A Multitude from Every Nation

⁹After these things I looked, and behold, a great ¹multitude which no one could count, from ^aevery nation and all tribes and peoples and tongues, standing ^bbefore the throne and ^cbefore the Lamb, clothed in ^dwhite robes, and ^epalm branches were in their hands; ¹⁰and they cry out with a loud voice, saying, “^aSalvation belongs to our God ^bwho sits on the throne, and to the Lamb.” ¹¹And all the angels were standing ^aaround the throne and ^bthe elders and the ^cfour living creatures, and they ^dfell on their faces before the throne and worshiped God, ¹²saying, “^aAmen, ^bthe blessing and the glory and the wisdom and the thanksgiving and the honor and the power and the strength, be to our God forever and ever. ^cAmen.”

¹³Then one of the elders ^aanswered, saying to me, “These, clothed in the ^bwhite robes, who are they, and from where have they come?” ¹⁴And I ¹said to him, “My lord, you know.” And he said to me, “These are the ones who come out of the ^agreat tribulation, and they ^bwashed their robes and made them ^cwhite in the ^dblood of the Lamb. ¹⁵“For this reason, they are ^abefore the throne of God; and they ^bserve Him day and night in His ¹^,^csanctuary; and ^dHe who sits on the throne will ²^,^edwell over them. ¹⁶“^aThey will hunger no longer, nor thirst anymore; nor will the sun ¹beat down on them, nor any heat; ¹⁷for the Lamb at the center of the throne will ^ashepherd them and will guide them to springs of the ¹^,^bwater of life. And ^cGod will wipe every tear from their eyes.”
