Revelation 4:7-11 Catholic Public Domain Version (CPDV)

7. And the first living creature resembled a lion, and the second living creature resembled a calf, and the third living creature had a face like a man, and the fourth living creature resembled a flying eagle.

8. And each of the four living creatures had upon them six wings, and all around and within they are full of eyes. And they took no rest, day or night, from saying: "Holy, Holy, Holy is the Lord God Almighty, who was, and who is, and who is to come."

9. And while those living creatures were giving glory and honor and blessings to the One sitting upon the throne, who lives forever and ever,

10. the twenty-four elders fell prostrate before the One sitting upon the throne, and they adored him who lives forever and ever, and they cast their crowns before the throne, saying:

11. "You are worthy, O Lord our God, to receive glory and honor and power. For you have created all things, and they became and were created because of your will."
