Revelation 4
1 After this, in my vision, I saw a door opened in heaven! And the first voice that I heard speaking with me was like a trumpet, saying, "Come up hither, and I will show you the things that must come to pass hereafter."

2 Immediately I was in the Spirit; and behold, there stood a throne in heaven, and upon the throne One sat;

3 and he who sat was in appearance like a jasper stone and a sardius; and there was a rainbow round about the throne, like an emerald to look upon.

4 And round about the throne were four and twenty Elders seated, who were clothed in white raiment, with golden crowns upon their heads.
ⲇ̅ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⳿ⲉⲟⲩⲟⲛ ⲕ̅ⲇ̅ ⳿ⲛ⳿ⲑⲣⲟⲛⲟⲥ ⲉⲩⲭⲏ ⳿ⲙ⳿ⲡⲕⲱϯ ⳿ⲙⲡⲓ⳿ⲑⲣⲟⲛⲟⲥ ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⲕ̅ⲇ̅ ⳿ⲙ⳿ⲡⲣⲉⲥⲃⲩⲧⲉⲣⲟⲥ ⲉⲩϩⲉⲙⲥⲓ ϩⲓϫⲉⲛ ⲛⲓ⳿ⲑⲣⲟⲛⲟⲥ ⲉⲩ⳿ⲕⲧⲏⲟⲩⲧ ϧⲉⲛ ϩⲁⲛϭⲓ⳿ϩⲃⲱⲥ ⳿ⲛⲟⲩⲱⲃϣ ⲛⲉⲙ ϩⲁⲛ⳿ⲭⲗⲟⲙ ⳿ⲛⲛⲟⲩⲃ ⲉⲩⲧⲟⲓ ⳿ⲉⲛⲟⲩ⳿ⲁⲫⲏⲟⲩ⳿ⲓ.
5 From the throne issued lightning and voices and thunders. Seven blazing lamps were burning before the throne; these are the seven Spirits of God.

6 And in front of the throne as it seemed, a glassy sea like crystal; and in the midst of the throne and encircling it are four Living Creatures, full of eyes before and behind.

7 The first creature was like a lion, and the second like a calf, and the third creature had a face like a man’s, and the fourth creature was like an eagle flying.

8 And the four Living Creatures, each one with six wings, are full of eyes round about and within; day and night they are chanting ceaselessly. "Holy, holy, holy is the Lord God, the Almighty. Who was, and who is, and who is to come."
ⲏ̅ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⲡⲓⲟⲩⲁⲓ ⲡⲓⲟⲩⲁⲓ ⳿ⲙⲙⲱⲟⲩ ⲉⲩⲕⲱϯ ⳿ⲉⲣⲱⲟⲩ ⲓⲥϫⲉⲛ ⲛⲟⲩⲓⲉⲃ ⲥⲁϧⲟⲩⲛ ⳿ⲙⲙⲱⲟⲩ ⲉⲩⲙⲉϩ ⳿ⲙⲃⲁⲗ ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⲛⲁⲩⲙⲟⲧⲉⲛ ⳿ⲙⲙⲱⲟⲩ ⲁⲛ ⲛⲉ ⳿ⲙⲡⲓ⳿ⲉϩⲟⲟⲩ ⲛⲉⲙ ⲡⲓ⳿ⲉϫⲱⲣϩ ⲉⲩϫⲱ ⳿ⲙⲙⲟⲥ ϫⲉ ⳿ϥⲟⲩⲁⲃ ⳿ϥⲟⲩⲁⲃ ⳿ϥⲟⲩⲁⲃ ⳿ⲛϫⲉ Ⲡ⳪ ⲫϯ ⲡⲓⲡⲁⲛⲧⲟⲕⲣⲁⲧⲱⲣ ⲫⲏⲉⲧϣⲟⲡ ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⲫⲏ ⳿ⲉⲛⲁϥϣⲟⲡ ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⲫⲏⲉⲑⲛⲏⲟⲩ.
9 And whenever the Living Creatures give glory and honor and thanks to Him who sits on the throne, to Him who lives forever and ever, (aiōn g165)

10 the four and twenty Elders fall down before Him who sits on the throne, and worship Him who lives forever and ever, and cast their crowns before the throne, saying. (aiōn g165)
