AND after these things I saw four angels standing on the four corners of the earth, holding the four winds of the earth, that the wind should not blow on the earth, nor on the sea, nor on any tree.

Μετὰ τοῦτο εἶδον τέσσαρας ἀγγέλους ἑστῶτας ἐπὶ τὰς τέσσαρας γωνίας τῆς γῆς, κρατοῦντας τοὺς τέσσαρας ἀνέμους τῆς γῆς, ἵνα μὴ πνέῃ ἄνεμος ἐπὶ τῆς γῆς μήτε ἐπὶ τῆς θαλάσσης μήτε ἐπὶ πᾶν δένδρον.

И҆ по се́мъ ви́дѣхъ четы́ри а҆́гг҃лы стоѧ́щыѧ на четы́рехъ ᲂу҆́глѣхъ землѝ, держа́щыѧ четы́ри вѣ́тры зє́мскїѧ, да не ды́шетъ вѣ́тръ на зе́млю, ни на мо́ре, ни на всѧ́ко дре́во.

2

And I saw another angel ascending from the east, having the seal of the living God: and he cried with a loud voice to the four angels, to whom it was given to hurt the earth and the sea,

καὶ εἶδον ἄλλον ἄγγελον ἀναβαίνοντα ἀπὸ ἀνατολῆς ἡλίου, ἔχοντα σφραγῖδα Θεοῦ ζῶντος, καὶ ἔκραξε φωνῇ μεγάλῃ τοῖς τέσσαρσιν ἀγγέλοις, οἷς ἐδόθη αὐτοῖς ἀδικῆσαι τὴν γῆν καὶ τὴν θάλασσαν,

И҆ ви́дѣхъ и҆́наго а҆́гг҃ла восходѧ́ща ѿ восхо́да со́лнца, и҆мꙋ́ща печа́ть бг҃а жива́гѡ. И҆ возопѝ гла́сомъ ве́лїимъ къ четы́ремъ а҆́гг҃лѡмъ, и҆́мже дано̀ бы́сть вреди́ти зе́млю и҆ мо́ре, глаго́лѧ:

3

Saying, Hurt not the earth, neither the sea, nor the trees, till we have sealed the servants of our God in their foreheads.

λέγων· μὴ ἀδικήσητε τὴν γῆν μήτε τὴν θάλασσαν μήτε τὰ δένδρα, ἄχρις οὗ σφραγίσωμεν τοὺς δούλους τοῦ Θεοῦ ἡμῶν ἐπὶ τῶν μετώπων αὐτῶν.

не вреди́те ни землѝ, ни мо́рѧ, ни древе́съ, до́ндеже запечатлѣ́емъ рабы̑ бг҃а на́шегѡ на челѣ́хъ и҆́хъ.

4

And I heard the number of them which were sealed: and there were sealed an hundred and forty and four thousand of all the tribes of the children of Israel.

Καὶ ἤκουσα τὸν ἀριθμὸν τῶν ἐσφραγισμένων· ἑκατὸν τεσσαράκοντα τέσσαρες χιλιάδες ἐσφραγισμένοι ἐκ πάσης φυλῆς υἱῶν Ἰσραήλ·

И҆ слы́шахъ число̀ запечатлѣ́нныхъ: сто̀ четы́редесѧть четы́ри ты́сѧщи запечатлѣ́нныхъ ѿ всѧ́кагѡ колѣ́на сынѡ́въ і҆и҃левыхъ.

9

After this I beheld, and, lo, a great multitude, which no man could number, of all nations, and kindreds, and people, and tongues, stood before the throne, and before the Lamb, clothed with white robes, and palms in their hands;

Μετὰ ταῦτα εἶδον, καὶ ἰδοὺ ὄχλος πολύς, ὃν ἀριθμῆσαι αὐτὸν οὐδεὶς ἐδύνατο, ἐκ παντὸς ἔθνους καὶ φυλῶν καὶ λαῶν καὶ γλωσσῶν, ἑστῶτας ἐνώπιον τοῦ θρόνου καὶ ἐνώπιον τοῦ ἀρνίου, περιβεβλημένους στολὰς λευκάς, καὶ φοίνικες ἐν ταῖς χερσὶν αὐτῶν·

По си́хъ ви́дѣхъ, и҆ сѐ, наро́дъ мно́гъ, є҆го́же и҆счестѝ никто́же мо́жетъ, ѿ всѧ́кагѡ ꙗ҆зы́ка и҆ колѣ́на, и҆ люді́й и҆ племе́нъ, стоѧ́ще пред̾ прⷭ҇то́ломъ и҆ пред̾ а҆́гнцемъ, ѡ҆блече́ны въ ри̑зы бѣлы̑, и҆ фі́нїцы въ рꙋка́хъ и҆́хъ.

10

And cried with a loud voice, saying, Salvation to our God which sitteth upon the throne, and unto the Lamb.

καὶ κράζουσι φωνῇ μεγάλῃ λέγοντες· ἡ σωτηρία τῷ Θεῷ ἡμῶν τῷ καθημένῳ ἐπὶ τοῦ θρόνου καὶ τῷ ἀρνίῳ.

И҆ возопи́ша гла́сомъ ве́лїимъ, глаго́люще: спⷭ҇нїе сѣдѧ́щемꙋ на прⷭ҇то́лѣ бг҃ꙋ на́шемꙋ и҆ а҆́гнцꙋ.

11

And all the angels stood round about the throne, and about the elders and the four beasts, and fell before the throne on their faces, and worshipped God,

καὶ πάντες οἱ ἄγγελοι εἱστήκεισαν κύκλῳ τοῦ θρόνου καὶ τῶν πρεσβυτέρων καὶ τῶν τεσσάρων ζῴων, καὶ ἔπεσαν ἐνώπιον τοῦ θρόνου ἐπὶ τὰ πρόσωπα αὐτῶν καὶ προσεκύνησαν τῷ Θεῷ

И҆ всѝ а҆́гг҃ли стоѧ́хꙋ ѡ҆́крестъ прⷭ҇то́ла и҆ ста́рєцъ и҆ четы́рехъ живо́тныхъ: и҆ падо́ша на лицы̀ пред̾ прⷭ҇то́ломъ и҆ поклони́шасѧ бг҃ꙋ,

12

Saying, Amen: Blessing, and glory, and wisdom, and thanksgiving, and honour, and power, and might, be unto our God for ever and ever. Amen.

λέγοντες· ἀμήν· ἡ εὐλογία καὶ ἡ δόξα καὶ ἡ σοφία καὶ ἡ εὐχαριστία καὶ ἡ τιμὴ καὶ ἡ δύναμις καὶ ἡ ἰσχὺς τῷ Θεῷ ἡμῶν εἰς τοὺς αἰῶνας τῶν αἰώνων· ἀμήν.

глаго́люще: а҆ми́нь: блгⷭ҇ве́нїе и҆ сла́ва, и҆ премⷣрость и҆ хвала̀, и҆ чтⷭ҇ь и҆ си́ла и҆ крѣ́пость бг҃ꙋ на́шемꙋ во вѣ́ки вѣкѡ́въ. А҆ми́нь.

13

And one of the elders answered, saying unto me, What are these which are arrayed in white robes? and whence came they?

Καὶ ἀπεκρίθη εἷς ἐκ τῶν πρεσβυτέρων λέγων μοι· οὗτοι οἱ περιβεβλημένοι τὰς στολὰς τὰς λευκὰς τίνες εἰσὶ καὶ πόθεν ἦλθον;

И҆ ѿвѣща̀ є҆ди́нъ ѿ ста́рєцъ, глаго́лѧ мѝ: сі́и ѡ҆блече́ннїи въ ри̑зы бѣ̑лыѧ кто̀ сꙋ́ть и҆ ѿкꙋ́дꙋ прїидо́ша;

14

And I said unto him, Sir, thou knowest. And he said to me, These are they which came out of great tribulation, and have washed their robes, and made them white in the blood of the Lamb.

καὶ εἴρηκα αὐτῷ· κύριέ μου, σὺ οἶδας. καὶ εἶπέ μοι· οὗτοί εἰσιν οἱ ἐρχόμενοι ἐκ τῆς θλίψεως τῆς μεγάλης, καὶ ἔπλυναν τὰς στολὰς αὐτῶν καὶ ἐλεύκαναν αὐτὰς ἐν τῷ αἵματι τοῦ ἀρνίου.

И҆ рѣ́хъ є҆мꙋ̀: го́споди, ты̀ вѣ́си. И҆ рече́ ми: сі́и сꙋ́ть, и҆̀же прїидо́ша ѿ ско́рби вели́кїѧ, и҆ и҆спра́ша ри̑зы своѧ̑, и҆ ᲂу҆бѣли́ша ри̑зы своѧ̑ въ кро́ви а҆́гнчи:

15

Therefore are they before the throne of God, and serve him day and night in his temple: and he that sitteth on the throne shall dwell among them.

διὰ τοῦτό εἰσιν ἐνώπιον τοῦ θρόνου τοῦ Θεοῦ καὶ λατρεύουσιν αὐτῷ ἡμέρας καὶ νυκτὸς ἐν τῷ ναῷ αὐτοῦ. καὶ ὁ καθήμενος ἐπὶ τοῦ θρόνου σκηνώσει ἐπ᾿ αὐτούς.

сегѡ̀ ра́ди сꙋ́ть пред̾ прⷭ҇то́ломъ бж҃їимъ и҆ слꙋ́жатъ є҆мꙋ̀ де́нь и҆ но́щь въ цр҃кви є҆гѡ̀, и҆ сѣдѧ́й на прⷭ҇то́лѣ всели́тсѧ въ ни́хъ:

16

They shall hunger no more, neither thirst any more; neither shall the sun light on them, nor any heat.

οὐ πεινάσουσιν ἔτι οὐδὲ διψήσουσιν ἔτι, οὐδ᾿ οὐ μὴ πέσῃ ἐπ᾿ αὐτοὺς ὁ ἥλιος οὐδὲ πᾶν καῦμα,

не вза́лчꙋтъ ктомꙋ̀, нижѐ вжа́ждꙋтъ, не и҆́мать же па́сти на ни́хъ со́лнце, нижѐ всѧ́къ зно́й:

17

For the Lamb which is in the midst of the throne shall feed them, and shall lead them unto living fountains of waters: and God shall wipe away all tears from their eyes.

ὅτι τὸ ἀρνίον τὸ ἀνὰ μέσον τοῦ θρόνου ποιμανεῖ αὐτούς, καὶ ὁδηγήσει αὐτοὺς ἐπὶ ζωῆς πηγὰς ὑδάτων, καὶ ἐξαλείψει ὁ Θεὸς πᾶν δάκρυον ἐκ τῶν ὀφθαλμῶν αὐτῶν.

ꙗ҆́кѡ а҆́гнецъ, и҆́же посредѣ̀ прⷭ҇то́ла, ᲂу҆пасе́тъ ѧ҆̀ и҆ наста́витъ и҆̀хъ на живѡ́тныѧ и҆сто́чники во́дъ, и҆ ѿи́метъ бг҃ъ всѧ́кꙋ сле́зꙋ ѿ ѻ҆́чїю и҆́хъ.
