007:005 of the tribe of Judah were sealed twelve thousand, of the tribe of Reuben twelve thousand, of the tribe of Gad twelve thousand, 007:006 of the tribe of Asher twelve thousand, of the tribe of Naphtali twelve thousand, of the tribe of Manasseh twelve thousand, 007:007 of the tribe of Simeon twelve thousand, of the tribe of Levi twelve thousand, of the tribe of Issachar twelve thousand, 007:008 of the tribe of Zebulun twelve thousand, of the tribe of Joseph twelve thousand, of the tribe of Benjamin were sealed twelve thousand. 007:009 After these things I looked, and behold, a great multitude, which no man could number, out of every nation and of all tribes, peoples, and languages, standing before the throne and before the Lamb, dressed in white robes, with palm branches in their hands. 007:010 They cried with a loud voice, saying, "Salvation be to our God, who sits on the throne, and to the Lamb!" 007:011 All the angels were standing around the throne, the elders, and the four living creatures; and they fell on their faces before his throne, and worshiped God, 007:012 saying, "Amen! Blessing, glory, wisdom, thanksgiving, honor, power, and might, be to our God forever and ever! Amen." 007:013 One of the elders answered, saying to me, "These who are arrayed in white robes, who are they, and from where did they come?" 007:014 I told him, "My lord, you know." He said to me, "These are those who came out of the great tribulation. They washed their robes, and made them white in the Lamb's blood. 007:015 Therefore they are before the throne of God, they serve him day and night in his temple. He who sits on the throne will spread his tent over them. 007:016 They will never be hungry, neither thirsty any more; neither will the sun beat on them, nor any heat; 007:017 for the Lamb who is in the midst of the throne shepherds them, and leads them to springs of waters of life. And God will wipe away every tear from their eyes." 008:001 When he opened the seventh seal, there was silence in heaven for about half an hour. 008:002 I saw the seven angels who stand before God, and seven trumpets were given to them. 008:003 Another angel came and stood over the altar, having a golden censer. Much incense was given to him, that he should add it to the prayers of all the saints on the golden altar which was before the throne. 008:004 The smoke of the incense, with the prayers of the saints, went up before God out of the angel's hand. 008:005 The angel took the censer, and he filled it with the fire of the altar, and threw it on the earth. There followed thunders, sounds, lightnings, and an earthquake. 008:006 The seven angels who had the seven trumpets prepared themselves to sound.
