Revelation 4:1-4 Holman Christian Standard Bible (HCSB)

1. After this I looked, and there in heaven was an open door. The first voice that I had heard speaking to me like a trumpet said, “Come up here, and I will show you what must take place after this.”

2. Immediately I was in the Spirit, and a throne was set there in heaven. One was seated on the throne,

3. and the One seated looked like jasper and carnelian stone. A rainbow that looked like an emerald surrounded the throne.

4. Around that throne were 24 thrones, and on the thrones sat 24 elders dressed in white clothes, with gold crowns on their heads.
