| | 1 | 此后，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，你上到这里来，我要将以后必成的事指示你。
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 | 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。
At once I was in the Spirit, and there before me was a throne in heaven with someone sitting on it.
| |
| | 3 | 看那坐着的，好像碧玉和红宝石。又有虹围着宝座，好像绿宝石。
And the one who sat there had the appearance of jasper and carnelian. A rainbow, resembling an emerald, encircled the throne.
| |
| | 4 | 宝座的周围，又有二十四个座位，其上坐着二十四位长老，身穿白衣，头上戴着金冠冕。
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 | 有闪电，声音，雷轰，从宝座中发出。又有七盏火灯在宝座前点着，这七灯就是神的七灵。
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 | 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，前后遍体都满了眼睛。
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 | 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。
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 | 四活物各有六个翅膀，遍体内外都满了眼睛。他们昼夜不住地说，圣哉，圣哉，圣哉，主神。是昔在今在以后永在的全能者。
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 | 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，
Whenever the living creatures give glory, honor and thanks to him who sits on the throne and who lives for ever and ever,
| |
| | 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，
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 | 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，并且万物是因你的旨意被创造而有的。
"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."
