Revelation 7
1 After this, I saw four messengers, standing at the four corners of the earth, holding fast the four winds of the earth, that no wind might blow upon the land, or upon the sea, or upon any tree.
然后我看见四位天使站在地的四角，控制着四个方向的风，防止风吹在地面、海面和树上。
2 And I saw another messenger, ascending from the rising of the sun, holding the seal of the Living God; and he cried out with a loud voice unto the four messengers unto whom it had been given to injure the land and the sea,
我又看见另外一位天使，从东方站起，拿着永活上帝的封印，向那四位得了权力、可以伤害地与海的天使，大声呼喊，
3 saying—Do not injure the land, or the sea, or the trees, until we have sealed the servants of our God upon their foreheads.
他说：“你们不要伤害大地、海洋和树木，要等我们在上帝众信徒的额上先盖上印。”
4 And I heard the number of the sealed, —a hundred and forty-four thousand, —sealed out of every tribe of the sons of Israel: —
我听见被盖印的人数：以色列子孙各部落共十四万四千人：以色列子孙所有部落中被封印的：
5 Of the tribe of Judah, twelve thousand sealed, of the tribe of Reuben, twelve thousand, of the tribe of Gad, twelve thousand,
犹太部落一万二千人；流本部落一万二千人；迦得部落中一万二千人；
6 Of the tribe of Asher, twelve thousand, of the tribe of Naphtali, twelve thousand, of the tribe of Manasseh, twelve thousand,
亚设支部落一万二千人；拿弗他利部落一万二千人；玛拿西部落一万二千人；
7 Of the tribe of Simeon, twelve thousand, of the tribe of Levi, twelve thousand, of the tribe of Issachar, twelve thousand,
西缅部落一万二千人；利未部落一万二千人；以萨迦部落一万二千人；
8 Of the tribe of Zebulun, twelve thousand, of the tribe of Joseph, twelve thousand, of the tribe of Benjamin, twelve thousand, sealed.
西布伦部落一万二千人；约瑟部落一万二千人；便雅悯部落一万二千人。
9 After these things, I saw, and lo! a great multitude, —which, to number it! no one was able, —of every nation, and [of all] tribes, and peoples, and tongues; standing before the throne, and before the Lamb; arrayed in white robes, and palm-branches in their hands; —
之后我看到一大群人，没有人能数得过来他们的数量，来自所有国家、部落、民族和方言。他们站在宝座和羊羔面前，身穿白袍，手里拿着棕树枝。
10 and they cry out with a loud voice, saying—Salvation unto our God who sitteth upon the throne, and unto the Lamb!
他们大声呼喊，说：“救赎来自那坐在宝座上我们的上帝，以及来自羊羔！”
11 And, all the messengers, were standing round about the throne and the elders and the four living creatures; and they fell down before the throne upon their faces, and rendered homage unto God,
所有天使都围在宝座、众长老和四个活物的四 伏在宝座前，敬拜上帝。
12 saying—Amen! The blessing, and the glory, and the wisdom, and the thanksgiving, and the honour, and the power, and the might, —be unto our God, unto the ages of ages. [Amen]! (aiōn g165)
他们说：“阿门！愿祝福、荣耀、智慧、感谢、荣誉、权能和力量，都归给我们的上帝，直到永远。阿门！”阿门。 (aiōn g165)
13 And one of the elders began, saying unto me—These who are arrayed in white robes, who are they? and whence came they?
一位长老问我：“这些身穿白袍的是谁？他们从哪里来？”
14 And I at once said to him—My lord! thou, knowest! And he said unto me—These, are they who come out of the great tribulation, and they washed their robes, and made them white in the blood of the Lamb;
我回答：“我主啊，你知道答案。”他告诉我：“这些人经历过巨大的迫害。他们用羊羔的血，把自己的长袍洗白。
15 For this cause, are they before the throne of God, and are rendering divine service unto him, day and night, in his sanctuary; and he that sitteth upon the throne shall spread his tent over them;
因此他们才能坐在上帝的宝座前，日夜在他的圣殿中事奉他。那坐在宝座上的，也会以其存在而保护他们。
16 They shall hunger no more, neither thirst any more, neither in any wise shall the sun fall upon them, nor any burning heat;
他们不会再挨饿，不会再口渴；太阳不会炙烤他们，他们也不会因炎热而受苦，
17 Because, the Lamb that is in the midst of the throne, shall shepherd them, and shall lead them unto life’s fountains of waters; and God shall wipe away every tear out of their eyes.
因为在宝座中间的羊羔会成为他们的牧羊人，领他们到生命水泉，上帝也必抹去他们的一切眼泪。”
