Revelation 7

Hebrew Names Version HNV

1 After this, I saw four angels standing at the four corners of the eretz, holding the four winds of the eretz, so that no wind would blow on the eretz, or on the sea, or on any tree.

2 I saw another angel ascend from the sunrise, having the seal of the living God. He cried with a loud voice to the four angels to whom it was given to harm the eretz and the sea,

3 saying, "Don't harm the eretz, neither the sea, nor the trees, until we have sealed the bondservants of our God on their foreheads!"

4 I heard the number of those who were sealed, one hundred forty-four thousand, sealed out of every tribe of the children of Yisra'el:

5 Of the tribe of Yehudah were sealed twelve thousand, Of the tribe of Re'uven twelve thousand, Of the tribe of Gad twelve thousand,

6 Of the tribe of Asher twelve thousand, Of the tribe of Naftali twelve thousand, Of the tribe of Menashsheh twelve thousand,

7 Of the tribe of Shim`on twelve thousand, Of the tribe of Levi twelve thousand, Of the tribe of Yissakhar twelve thousand,

8 Of the tribe of Zevulun twelve thousand, Of the tribe of Yosef twelve thousand, Of the tribe of Binyamin were sealed twelve thousand.

9 After these things I saw, and behold, a great multitude, which no man could number, out of every nation and of all tribes, peoples, and languages, standing before the throne and before the Lamb, dressed in white robes, with palm branches in their hands.

10 They cried with a loud voice, saying, "Salvation be to our God, who sits on the throne, and to the Lamb."

11 All the angels were standing around the throne, the Zakenim, and the four living creatures; and they fell before the throne on their faces, and worshiped God,

12 saying, "Amein! Blessing, glory, wisdom, thanksgiving, honor, power, and might, be to our God forever and ever! Amein."

13 One of the Zakenim answered, saying to me, "These who are arrayed in white robes, who are they, and where did they come from?"

14 I told him, "My lord, you know." He said to me, "These are those who came out of the great oppression. They washed their robes, and made them white in the Lamb's blood.

15 Therefore are they before the throne of God, they serve him day and night in his temple. He who sits on the throne will spread his tent over them.

16 They will never be hungry, neither thirsty any more; neither will the sun beat on them, nor any heat;

17 for the Lamb who is in the midst of the throne will be their shepherd, and will guide them to living springs of waters. God will wipe away every tear from their eyes."

The Message Bible MSG

1 Immediately I saw Four Angels standing at the four corners of earth, standing steady with a firm grip on the four winds so no wind would blow on earth or sea, not even rustle a tree.

2 Then I saw another Angel rising from where the sun rose, carrying the seal of the Living God. He thundered to the Four Angels assigned the task of hurting earth and sea,

3 "Don't hurt the earth! Don't hurt the sea! Don't so much as hurt a tree until I've sealed the servants of our God on their foreheads!"

4 I heard the count of those who were sealed: 144,000! They were sealed out of every Tribe of Israel:

5 12,000 sealed from Judah, 12,000 from Reuben, 12,000 from Gad,

6 12,000 from Asher, 12,000 from Naphtali, 12,000 from Manasseh,

7 12,000 from Simeon, 12,000 from Levi, 12,000 from Issachar,

8 12,000 from Zebulun, 12,000 from Joseph, 12,000 sealed from Benjamin.

9 I looked again. I saw a huge crowd, too huge to count. Everyone was there - all nations and tribes, all races and languages. And they were standing, dressed in white robes and waving palm branches, standing before the Throne and the Lamb

10 and heartily singing: Salvation to our God on his Throne! Salvation to the Lamb!

11 All who were standing around the Throne - Angels, Elders, Animals - fell on their faces before the Throne and worshiped God,

12 singing: Oh, Yes! The blessing and glory and wisdom and thanksgiving, The honor and power and strength, To our God forever and ever and ever! Oh, Yes!

13 Just then one of the Elders addressed me: "Who are these dressed in white robes, and where did they come from?"

14 Taken aback, I said, "O Sir, I have no idea - but you must know."

15 That's why they're standing before God's Throne. They serve him day and night in his Temple. The One on the Throne will pitch his tent there for them:

16 no more hunger, no more thirst, no more scorching heat.

17 The Lamb on the Throne will shepherd them, will lead them to spring waters of Life. And God will wipe every last tear from their eyes."
