After this I looked, and there it is an open door in heaven; and the first voice I heard, like a trumpet, talking with me, said: Come up here, and I will show you the things that will happen after these ones.
And in a minute I was in the Spirit: and here it is, a throne established in heaven, and in the throne, one seated on it.
And the look of the one that was seated was like a stone of jasper and cornelian; and there was around the throne a rainbow, similar in aspect to the emerald.
And around the throne there were twenty four thrones; and I saw seated in the thrones twenty four Elders, wearing white clothes, with golden crowns on their heads.
Lightning’s, thunders and voices came out from the throne, and in front of the throne were burning seven fire lamps, which are the seven spirits of God.
And in front the throne was a sea of glass similar to the crystal, and next to the throne, and around the throne, four living creatures full of eyes in the front and the back.
The first living creature was like a lion, the second was like a yearling calf, the third had a face like a human, and the fourth was like a flying eagle.
