16 于是,那些在神面前坐在自己座位[a]上的二十四位长老,就把脸伏在地上,敬拜神, 17 说:

“主、神、全能者啊,今在、昔在[b]的那一位啊!我们感谢你!
因为你得了你的大权能,做王了。
18 列国发怒了,可是你的震怒临到了,
你审判死人的时候到了,
你向你的奴仆先知们、圣徒们、敬畏你名的人,
无论卑微尊贵,赐报偿的时候到了,
你毁灭那些败坏大地之人的时候也到了。”

16 And the twenty-four elders,(A) who were seated on their thrones before God, fell on their faces(B) and worshiped God, 17 saying:

“We give thanks(C) to you, Lord God Almighty,(D)
    the One who is and who was,(E)
because you have taken your great power
    and have begun to reign.(F)
18 The nations were angry,(G)
    and your wrath has come.
The time has come for judging the dead,(H)
    and for rewarding your servants the prophets(I)
and your people who revere your name,
    both great and small(J)
and for destroying those who destroy the earth.”
