[우리말성경]
네 생물과 24명의 장로
1. 이 일 후에 내가 보았습니다. 보십시오. 하늘에 열린 문이 있고 전에 내가 들은 그 음성, 곧 나팔소리같이 나에게 들린 음성이 말했습니다. “이리로 올라오너라. 그러면 내가 이후에 마땅히 될 일들을 네게 보여 주겠다.”
2. 나는 순식간에 성령에 사로잡히게 됐습니다. 보십시오. 하늘에 보좌가 있는데 그 위에 누군가 앉아 계셨습니다.
3. 그 앉으신 이는 벽옥과 홍옥 같고 무지개가 보좌를 둘러싸고 있는데 그 모습이 에메랄드 같았습니다.
4. 또 보좌 둘레에는 24개의 보좌가 있고 그 보좌에는 24명의 장로가 흰옷을 입고 머리에 금면류관을 쓰고 앉아 있었습니다.
5. 보좌로부터 번개들과 우르릉거리는 소리들과 천둥 치는 소리가 나고 보좌 앞에 일곱 등불이 타오르고 있는데 이것은 하나님의 일곱 영입니다.
6. 또 보좌 앞에는 수정처럼 맑은 유리 바다와 같은 것이 있고 보좌 가운데와 보좌 둘레에는 앞뒤로 눈이 가득한 네 생물이 있습니다.
7. 첫째 생물은 사자처럼 생겼고, 둘째 생물은 송아지처럼 생겼고, 셋째 생물은 사람의 얼굴처럼 생겼고, 넷째 생물은 날아가는 독수리처럼 생겼습니다.
8. 네 생물은 각각 여섯 날개를 가지고 있고 날개 둘레와 안쪽에는 눈들이 가득합니다. 그들은 밤낮 쉬지 않고 말했습니다. “거룩 거룩 거룩 전능하신 주 하나님, 전에도 계셨고 지금도 계시고 이제 오시는 분이십니다.”
9. 그 생물들이 영원토록 사시는 보좌에 앉으신 분께 영광과 존귀와 감사를 드릴 때
10. 24명의 장로들은 보좌에 앉으신 분 앞에 엎드려 영원토록 사시는 분께 경배하고 자기들의 면류관을 내려놓으며 말했습니다.
11. “주 우리 하나님이시여, 영광과 존귀와 능력을 받으시기에 합당하십니다. 주께서 만물을 창조하셨고 주의 기쁘신 뜻을 인해 만물이 존재했고 또 창조됐습니다.”
[NIV]
1. After this I looked, and there before me was a door standing open in heaven. And the voice I had first heard speaking to me like a trumpet said, "Come up here, and I will show you what must take place after this."
2. At once I was in the Spirit, and there before me was a throne in heaven with someone sitting on it.
3. And the one who sat there had the appearance of jasper and carnelian. A rainbow, resembling an emerald, encircled the throne.
4. Surrounding the throne were twenty-four other thrones, and seated on them were twenty-four elders. They were dressed in white and had crowns of gold on their heads.
5. From the throne came flashes of lightning, rumblings and peals of thunder. Before the throne, seven lamps were blazing. These are the seven spirits of God.
6. Also before the throne there was what looked like a sea of glass, clear as crystal. In the center, around the throne, were four living creatures, and they were covered with eyes, in front and in back.
7. The first living creature was like a lion, the second was like an ox, the third had a face like a man, the fourth was like a flying eagle.
8. Each of the four living creatures had six wings and was covered with eyes all around, even under his wings. Day and night they never stop saying: "Holy, holy, holy is the Lord God Almighty, who was, and is, and is to come."
9. Whenever the living creatures give glory, honor and thanks to him who sits on the throne and who lives for ever and ever,
10. the twenty-four elders fall down before him who sits on the throne, and worship him who lives for ever and ever. They lay their crowns before the throne and say:
11. "You are worthy, our Lord and God, to receive glory and honor and power, for you created all things, and by your will they were created and have their being."
[헬라어]
1. μετα ταυτα ειδον και ιδου θυρα ηνεωγμενη εν τω ουρανω και η φωνη η πρωτη ην ηκουσα ως σαλπιγγος λαλουσης μετ εμου λεγουσα αναβα ωδε και δειξω σοι α δει γενεσθαι μετα ταυτα
2. και ευθεως εγενομην εν πνευματι και ιδου θρονος εκειτο εν τω ουρανω και επι του θρονου καθημενος
3. και ο καθημενος ην ομοιος ορασει λιθω ιασπιδι και σαρδινω και ιρις κυκλοθεν του θρονου ομοια ορασει σμαραγδινω
4. και κυκλοθεν του θρονου θρονοι εικοσι και τεσσαρες και επι τους θρονους ειδον τους εικοσι και τεσσαρας πρεσβυτερους καθημενους περιβεβλημενους εν ιματιοις λευκοις και εσχον επι τας κεφαλας αυτων στεφανους χρυσους
5. και εκ του θρονου εκπορευονται αστραπαι και βρονται και φωναι και επτα λαμπαδες πυρος καιομεναι ενωπιον του θρονου αι εισιν τα επτα πνευματα του θεου
6. και ενωπιον του θρονου θαλασσα υαλινη ομοια κρυσταλλω και εν μεσω του θρονου και κυκλω του θρονου τεσσαρα ζωα γεμοντα οφθαλμων εμπροσθεν και οπισθεν
7. και το ζωον το πρωτον ομοιον λεοντι και το δευτερον ζωον ομοιον μοσχω και το τριτον ζωον εχον το προσωπον ως ανθρωπος και το τεταρτον ζωον ομοιον αετω πετωμενω
8. και τεσσαρα ζωα εν καθ εαυτο ειχον ανα πτερυγας εξ κυκλοθεν και εσωθεν γεμοντα οφθαλμων και αναπαυσιν ουκ εχουσιν ημερας και νυκτος λεγοντα αγιος αγιος αγιος κυριος ο θεος ο παντοκρατωρ ο ην και ο ων και ο ερχομενος
9. και οταν δωσουσιν τα ζωα δοξαν και τιμην και ευχαριστιαν τω καθημενω επι του θρονου τω ζωντι εις τους αιωνας των αιωνων
10. πεσουνται οι εικοσι και τεσσαρες πρεσβυτεροι ενωπιον του καθημενου επι του θρονου και προσκυνουσιν τω ζωντι εις τους αιωνας των αιωνων και βαλλουσιν τους στεφανους αυτων ενωπιον του θρονου λεγοντες
11. αξιος ει κυριε λαβειν την δοξαν και την τιμην και την δυναμιν οτι συ εκτισας τα παντα και δια το θελημα σου εισιν και εκτισθησαν
[(中)간체]
1. 此後，我观看，见天上有门开了。我初次听见好像吹号的声音，对我说：你上到这裏來，我要将以後必成的事指你。
2. 我立刻被圣灵感动，见有一个宝座安置在天上，又有一位坐在宝座上。
3. 看那坐著的，好像碧玉和红宝石；又有虹围著宝座，好像綠宝石。
4. 宝座的周围又有二十四个座位；其上坐著二十四位长老，身穿白衣，头上戴著金冠冕。
5. 有闪电、声音、雷轰从宝座中发出；又有七盏火灯在宝座前点著；这七灯就是神的七灵。
6. 宝座前好像一个玻璃海，如同水晶。宝座中和宝座周围有四个活物，前後遍体都满了眼睛。
7. 第一个活物像狮子，第二个像牛犊，第三个脸面像人，第四个像飞鹰。
8. 四活物各有六个翅膀，遍体内外都满了眼睛。他们昼夜不住的说：圣哉！圣哉！圣哉！主神是昔在、今在、以後在的全能者。
9. 每逢四活物将荣耀、尊贵、感谢归给那坐在宝座上、活到永永远远者的时候，
10. 那二十四位长老就俯伏在坐宝座的面前敬拜那活到永永远远的，又把他们的冠冕放在宝座前，说：
11. 我们的主，我们的神，你是配得荣耀、尊贵、权柄的；因为你创造了万物，並且万物是因你的旨意被创造而有的。
