Seekfrom the bookof the LORD,and read:Not oneof thesewill be missing;Nonewill lackits mate.For His mouthhas commanded,And His Spirithas gatheredthem.
Bindup the testimony,sealthe lawamong my disciples.
"The visionof the eveningsand morningsWhichhas been toldis true;But keepthe visionsecret,For [it] pertains to manydays[in the future]."
Then I liftedup my eyesagainand looked,and behold,[there was] a flyingscroll.
and he hadin his handa little bookwhich was open.He placedhis rightfooton the seaand his lefton the land;
And He who was sitting[was] likea jasperstoneand a sardiusin appearance;and [there was] a rainbowaroundthe throne,likean emeraldin appearance.
And whenthe living creaturesgivegloryand honorand thanksto Him who sitson the throne,to Him who livesforeverand ever,
And everycreated thingwhichis in heavenand on the earthand underthe earthand on the sea,and all thingsin them, I heardsaying,"To Him who sitson the throne,and to the Lamb,[be] blessingand honorand gloryand dominionforeverand ever."
And He cameand tookthe book out of the right handof Him who saton the throne.
ThenI sawwhenthe Lambbrokeoneof the sevenseals,and I heardoneof the fourliving creaturessayingas with a voiceof thunder,"Come."
and they saidto the mountainsand to the rocks,"Fallon us and hideus from the presenceof Him who sitson the throne,and from the wrathof the Lamb;
Whenthe Lamb brokethe seventhseal,there was silencein heavenfor abouthalf an hour.
