¹印了十四万四千个以色列人

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

²我又看见另外一位天使，从日出之地上来，拿着永活　神的印，向那四位得了权柄可以伤害地和海的天使，大声呼喊，

²I 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 earth and the sea,

³说：“你们不要伤害地、海和树木，等我们在　神众仆人的额上先盖上了印。”

³saying, “Don’t harm the earth, neither the sea, nor the trees, until we have sealed the bondservants of our God on their foreheads!”

⁴我听见被盖印的人的数目，以色列子孙各支派中被盖印的共有十四万四千人：

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

⁵犹大支派中被盖印的，一万二千人，流本支派中，一万二千人；迦得支派中，一万二千人；

⁵of the tribe of Judah were sealed twelve thousand, of the tribe of Reuben twelve thousand, of the tribe of Gad twelve thousand,

⁶亚设支派中，一万二千人；拿弗他利支派中，一万二千人；玛拿西支派中，一万二千人；

⁶of the tribe of Asher twelve thousand, of the tribe of Naphtali twelve thousand, of the tribe of Manasseh twelve thousand,

⁷西缅支派中，一万二千人；利未支派中，一万二千人；以萨迦支派中，一万二千人；

⁷of the tribe of Simeon twelve thousand, of the tribe of Levi twelve thousand, of the tribe of Issachar twelve thousand,

⁸西布伦支派中，一万二千人；约瑟支派中，一万二千人；便雅悯支派中，一万二千人。

⁸of the tribe of Zebulun twelve thousand, of the tribe of Joseph twelve thousand, of the tribe of Benjamin were sealed twelve thousand.

⁹各国各族的群众前来敬拜这些事以后，我观看，见有一大群人，没有人能数得过来，是从各邦国、各支派、各民族、各方言来的。他们都站在宝座和羊羔面前，身穿白袍，手里拿着棕树枝。

⁹After these things I looked, 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他们大声呼喊，说：“愿救恩归给那坐在宝座上我们的　神，也归给羊羔！”

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

¹¹所有的天使都站在宝座、众长老和四个活物的四周。他们在宝座前，面伏在地上敬拜　神，

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

¹²说：“阿们！愿颂赞、荣耀、智慧、感谢、尊贵、权能、力量，都归给我们的　神，直到永永远远。阿们！”

¹²saying, “Amen! Blessing, glory, wisdom, thanksgiving, honor, power, and might, be to our God forever and ever! Amen.”

¹³长老中有一位问我：“这些身穿白袍的是谁？他们是从哪里来的呢？”

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

¹⁴我对他说：“我主啊，你是知道的。”他告诉我：“这些人是从大患难中出来的。他们用羊羔的血，把自己的衣袍洗洁白了。

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

¹⁵因此，他们可以在　神的宝座前，并且日夜在他的圣所里事奉他。那坐在宝座上的必展开帐幕覆庇他们。

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

¹⁶他们必不再饿，也不再渴；太阳和一切炎热必不伤害他们。

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

¹⁷因为在宝座中间的羊羔必牧养他们，领他们到生命水的泉源那里。　神也必抹去他们的一切眼泪。”

¹⁷for the Lamb who is in the midst of the throne shepherds them, and leads them to springs of waters of life. And God will wipe away every tear from their eyes.”
