3 Again they said:“Hallelujah!She is burning, and her smoke will rise forever and ever.”
4 Then the twenty-four elders and the four living creatures bowed down and worshiped God, who sits on the throne. They said:“Amen, Hallelujah!”
5 Then a voice came from the throne, saying:“Praise our God, all you who serve himand all you who honor him, both small and great!”
6 Then I heard what sounded like a great many people, like the noise of flooding water, and like the noise of loud thunder. The people were saying:“Hallelujah!Our Lord God, the Almighty, rules.
7 Let us rejoice and be happyand give God glory,because the wedding of the Lamb has come,and the Lamb’s bride has made herself ready.
8 Fine linen, bright and clean, was given to her to wear.”(The fine linen means the good things done by God’s holy people.)
9 And the angel said to me, “Write this: Blessed are those who have been invited to the wedding meal of the Lamb!” And the angel said, “These are the true words of God.”
