12 and said,“Amen! Praise, glory, wisdom,thanks, honour, power,and strength belong to our Godfor ever and ever! Amen!”
13 One of the elders asked me, “Do you know who these people are that are dressed in white robes? Do you know where they come from?”
14 “Sir,” I answered, “you must know.”Then he told me:“These are the oneswho have gone throughthe great suffering.They have washed their robesin the blood of the Lamband have made them white.
15 And so they standbefore the throne of Godand worship him in his templeday and night.The one who sits on the thronewill spread his tentover them.
16 They will never hungeror thirst again,and they won't be troubledby the sunor any scorching heat.
17 “The Lamb in the centreof the thronewill be their shepherd.He will lead them to streamsof life-giving water,and God will wipe all tearsfrom their eyes.”
