2 Then I saw another angel, who had the seal of the living God rise up from the east. He cried out in a loud voice to the four angels who were empowered to harm the earth and the sea:
3 “Don’t harm the earth or the sea or the trees until we seal the slaves of our God on their foreheads. ”
4 And I heard the number of those who were sealed:144,000 sealed from every tribe of the Israelites:
