< Revelation 4 >
1 After these things I looked, and behold a door opened in heaven, and the voice first that I heard like a trumpet was speaking with me (saying; *N(k)O*) do come up here, and I will show to you what it behooves to take place after these things.
Aftir these thingis Y say, and lo! a dore was openyd in heuene. And the firste vois that Y herde, was as of a trumpe spekinge with me, and seide, Stye thou vp hidur, and Y shal schewe to thee whiche thingis it bihoueth to be don soone aftir these thingus.
2 (and *k*) immediately I was in [the] Spirit and behold a throne was set in heaven, and upon (the throne *N(k)O*) [One] sitting.
Anoon Y was in spirit, and lo! a seete was sett in heuene, and vpon the seete oon sittynge.
3 and the [One] sitting (was *k*) like in appearance stone jasper and sardius And a rainbow [was] around the throne (like in appearance *NK(o)*) (an emerald. *N(k)O*)
And he that sat, was lijk the siyt of a stoon iaspis, and to sardyn; and a reynbowe was in cumpas of the seete, lijk the siyt of smaragdyn.
4 And around the throne (thrones *N(k)O*) [were] twenty (and *k*) four, and on the thrones (I saw *K*) (*k*) twenty (and *k*) four elders sitting, having clothed themselves in garments white, and (had *k*) on the heads of them crowns golden.
And in the cumpas of the seete weren foure and twenti smale seetis; and aboue the troones foure and twenti eldre men sittinge, hilid aboute with whijt clothis, and in the heedis of hem goldun corouns.
5 And out of the throne come flashes of lightning and voices and thunderings, And [there were] seven lamps of fire burning before the throne (of him *O*) (which *N(k)O*) are the seven Spirits of God,
And leitis, and voices, and thundringis camen out of the trone; and seuene laumpis brennynge bifore the trone, whiche ben the seuene spiritis of God.
6 And before the throne ([was something] like *NO*) a sea of glass, like as crystal, And in [the] midst of the throne and around the throne [were] four living creatures being full of eyes in front and behind.
And bifor the seete as a see of glas, lijk a crystal, and in the myddil of the seete, and in the cumpas of the seete, foure beestis ful of iyen bifore and bihynde.
7 And the living creature first [was] like as a lion, and the second living creature like as a calf, and the third living creature (he is having *N(k)O*) the face as (of a man, *N(k)O*) and the fourth living creature like as an eagle flying.
And the firste beeste lijk a lyoun; and the secounde beeste lijk a calf; and the thridde beeste hauynge a face as of a man; and the fourthe beeste lijk an egle fleynge.
8 And the four living creatures, one for (one *n(o)*) (of them *N(k)O*) (he having *N(k)(o)*) respectively wings six around and within (full *N(k)O*) of eyes and rest not they have by day and night (saying: *N(k)O*) Holy Holy Holy Lord God Almighty, who was being and who is being and who is coming.
And the foure beestis hadden euery of hem sixe wyngis; and al aboute and with ynne thei weren ful of iyen; and thei hadden not reste dai and nyyt, seiynge, Hooli, hooli, hooli, the Lord God almyyti, that was, and that is, and that is to comynge.
9 And whenever (will give *NK(o)*) the living creatures glory and honor and thanksgiving to the [One] sitting upon (the throne, *N(k)O*) who is living to the ages of the ages, (aiōn )
And whanne tho foure beestis yauen glorie, and honour, and blessing to hym that sat on the trone, that lyueth in to worldis of worldis, (aiōn )
10 will fall the twenty (and *k*) four elders before the [One] sitting upon the throne and (they will worship *N(k)O*) the [One] living to the ages of the ages and (they will cast *N(k)O*) the crowns of them before the throne saying: (aiōn )
the foure and twenti eldre men fellen doun bifor hym that sat on the trone, and worschipiden hym that lyueth in to worldis of worldis. And thei casten her corouns bifor the trone, and seiden, (aiōn )
11 Worthy are You Lord (and the God of us, *NO*) (the Holy One *O*) to receive glory and honor and power. for You yourself created all things, and because of the will of You (they were existing *N(k)O*) and were created.
Thou, Lord `oure God, art worthi to take glorie, and onour, and vertu; for thou madist of nouyt alle thingis, and for thi wille tho weren, and ben maad of nouyt.
