After this I looked, and behold, a great multitude which no man could number, from every nation, from all tribes and peoples and tongues, standing before the throne and before the Lamb, clothed in white robes, with palm branches in their hands, and crying out with a loud voice, \u201cSalvation belongs to our God who sits upon the throne, and to the Lamb!\u201d And all the angels stood round the throne and round the elders and the four living creatures, and they fell on their faces before the throne and worshiped God, saying, \u201cAmen! Blessing and glory and wisdom and thanksgiving and honor and power and might be to our God for ever and ever! Amen.\u201d<\/p>\n
Then one of the elders addressed me, saying, \u201cWho are these, clothed in white robes, and whence have they come?\u201d I said to him, \u201cSir, you know.\u201d And he said to me, \u201cThese are they who have come out of the great tribulation; they have washed their robes and made them white in the blood of the Lamb.<\/p>\n
Therefore are they before the throne of God,
\n and serve him day and night within his temple;
\n and he who sits upon the throne will shelter them with his presence.
\nThey shall hunger no more, neither thirst any more;
\n the sun shall not strike them, nor any scorching heat.
\nFor the Lamb in the midst of the throne will be their shepherd,
\n and he will guide them to springs of living water;
\nand God will wipe away every tear from their eyes.\u201d<\/p>\n
