1 After this I looked and there was a door that had been opened in heaven. The first voice that I had heard, which sounded like a trumpet, said to me, "Come up here, and I will show you what must take place after this."
2 At once I was in a Spirit-inspired trance and I saw a throne in heaven, and someone was seated on the throne.
3 The one seated there looked like jasper and carnelian, and surrounding the throne was a rainbow that looked like an emerald.
4 Twenty-four thrones, with twenty-four elders seated upon them, surrounded the throne. The elders were dressed in white clothing and had gold crowns on their heads.
