1 Pagkatapos ng mga bagay na ito ay tumingin ako, at narito, ang isang pintong bukas sa langit, at ang unang tinig na aking narinig, na gaya ng sa pakakak, na nakikipagusap sa akin, ay sa isang nagsasabi, Umakyat ka rito, at ipakikita ko sa iyo ang mga bagay na dapat mangyari sa haharapin. 2 Pagdaka'y napasa Espiritu ako: at narito, may isang luklukang nalalagay sa langit, at sa ibabaw ng luklukan ay may isang nakaupo; 3 At ang nakaupo ay katulad ng isang batong jaspe at isang sardio: at naliligid ng isang bahaghari na tulad sa anyo ng isang esmeralda. 4 At sa palibot ng luklukan ay may dalawangpu't apat na luklukan: at sa mga luklukan ay nakita kong nangakaupo ang dalawangpu't apat na matatanda, na nadaramtan ng mapuputing damit; at sa kanilang mga ulo ay may mga putong na ginto. 5 At mula sa luklukan ay may lumalabas na kidlat, at mga tinig at mga kulog. At may pitong ilawang apoy na mga nagliliyab sa harapan ng luklukan, na siyang pitong Espiritu ng Dios; 6 At sa harapan ng luklukan, ay wari na may isang dagat na bubog na katulad ng salamin; at sa gitna ng luklukan, at sa palibot ng luklukan, ay may apat na nilalang na buhay na puno ng mga mata sa harapan at sa likuran. 7 At ang unang nilalang ay katulad ng isang leon, at ang ikalawang nilalang ay katulad ng isang guyang baka, at ang ikatlong nilalang ay may mukhang katulad ng sa isang tao, at ang ikaapat na nilalang ay katulad ng isang agila na lumilipad. 8 At ang apat na nilalang na buhay, na may anim na pakpak bawa't isa sa kanila, ay mga puno ng mata sa palibot at sa loob; at sila'y walang pahinga araw at gabi, na nagsasabi, Banal, banal, banal, ang Panginoong Dios, ang Makapangyarihan sa lahat, na nabuhay at nabubuhay at siyang darating. 9 At pagka ang mga nilalang na buhay ay nangagpupuri, at nangagpaparangal at nangagpapasalamat sa nakaupo sa luklukan, doon sa nabubuhay magpakailan kailan man, 10 Ang dalawangpu't apat na matatanda ay mangagpapatirapa sa harapan niyaong nakaupo sa luklukan, at mangagsisisamba doon sa nabubuhay magpakailan kailan man, at ilalagay ang kanilang putong sa harapan ng luklukan na nangagsasabi, 11 Marapat ka, Oh Panginoon namin at Dios namin, na tumanggap ng kaluwalhatian at ng kapurihan at ng kapangyarihan: sapagka't nilikha mo ang lahat ng mga bagay at dahil sa iyong kalooban ay nangagsilitaw, at nangalikha.

1 After this I looked, and, behold, a door was opened in heaven: and the first voice which I heard was as it were of a trumpet talking with me; which said, Come up here, and I will show you things which must be hereafter.2 And immediately I was in the spirit; and, behold, a throne was set in heaven, and one sat on the throne.3 And he that sat was to look upon like a jasper and a carnelian stone: and there was a rainbow round about the throne, in appearance like unto an emerald.4 And round about the throne were four and twenty thrones: and upon the thrones I saw four and twenty elders sitting, clothed in white clothing; and they had on their heads crowns of gold.5 And out of the throne proceeded lightning and thunderings and voices: and there were seven lamps of fire burning before the throne, which are the seven Spirits of God.6 And before the throne there was a sea of glass like unto crystal: and in the midst of the throne, and round about the throne, were four living creatures full of eyes in front and behind.7 And the first living creature was like a lion, and the second living creature like a calf, and the third living creature had a face as a man, and the fourth living creature was like a flying eagle.8 And the four living creatures had each of them six wings about him; and they were full of eyes within: and they rest not day and night, saying, Holy, holy, holy, Lord God Almighty, who was, and is, and is to come.9 And when those living creatures give glory and honor and thanks to him that sits on the throne, who lives forever and ever,10 The four and twenty elders fall down before him that is sitting on the throne, and worship him that lives forever and ever, and cast their crowns before the throne, saying,11 You are worthy, O Lord, to receive glory and honor and power: for you have created all things, and for your pleasure they are and were created.
