After this I saw four angels standing at the four corners of the earth, holding the four winds of the earth, that no wind should blow on the earth, or on the sea, or upon any tree.
And I saw another angel ascend from the sunrising, having the seal of the living God: and he cried with a great voice to the four angels, to whom it was given to hurt the earth and the sea,
After these things I saw, and behold, a great multitude, which no man could number, out of every nation and of {cf15i all} tribes and peoples and tongues, standing before the throne and before the Lamb, arrayed in white robes, and palms in their hands;
And all the angels were standing round about the throne, and {cf15i about} the elders and the four living creatures; and they fell before the throne on their faces, and worshipped God,
And I say unto him, My lord, thou knowest. And he said to me, These are they which come out of the great tribulation, and they washed their robes, and made them white in the blood of the Lamb.
Therefore are they before the throne of God; and they serve him day and night in his temple: and he that sitteth on the throne shall spread his tabernacle over them.
for the Lamb which is in the midst of the throne shall be their shepherd, and shall guide them unto fountains of waters of life: and God shall wipe away every tear from their eyes.
