Revelation 4:4-10
4:4 In
a circle around the throne were twenty-four other thrones, and seated on those thrones were twenty-four elders. They were
dressed in white clothing and had golden crowns
on their heads.
4:5 From
the throne came out flashes of lightning and roaring
and crashes of thunder. Seven flaming torches, which are the seven spirits of God,
were burning in front of the throne
4:6 and in front of the throne was something like a sea of glass, like crystal.
In the middle of the throne and around the throne were four living creatures full of eyes in front and in back.
4:7 The first living creature was like a lion, the second creature like an ox, the third creature had a face like a man’s, and the fourth creature looked like an eagle flying.
4:8 Each one of the four living creatures had six wings and was full of eyes all around and inside. They never rest day or night, saying:
“Holy Holy Holy is the Lord God, the All-Powerful,
Who was and who is, and who is still to come!”
4:9 And whenever the living creatures give glory, honor, and thanks to the one who sits on the throne, who lives forever and ever,
4:10 the twenty-four elders throw themselves to the ground before the one who sits on the throne and worship the one who lives forever and ever, and they offer their crowns before his throne, saying:
Revelation 5:8-11
5:8 and when he had taken the scroll, the four living creatures and the twenty-four elders threw themselves to the ground
before the Lamb. Each
of them had a harp and golden bowls full of incense (which are the prayers of the saints).
5:9 They were singing a new song:
“You are worthy to take the scroll
and to open its seals
because you were killed,
and at the cost of your own blood you have purchased for God
persons from every tribe, language, people, and nation.
5:10 You have appointed them as a kingdom and priests to serve our God, and they will reign on the earth.”
5:11 Then I looked and heard the voice of many angels in a circle around the throne, as well as the living creatures and the elders. Their number was ten thousand times ten thousand – thousands times thousands –
Revelation 5:14
5:14 And the four living creatures were saying “Amen,” and the elders threw themselves to the ground and worshiped.
Revelation 11:15-16
The Seventh Trumpet
11:15 Then the seventh angel blew his trumpet, and there were loud voices in heaven saying:
“The kingdom of the world
has become the kingdom of our Lord
and of his Christ,
and he will reign for ever and ever.”
11:16 Then the twenty-four elders who are seated on their thrones before God threw themselves down with their faces to the ground and worshiped God
Revelation 15:7
15:7 Then
one of the four living creatures gave the seven angels seven golden bowls filled with the wrath
of God who lives forever and ever,
