Revelation 7:14-16
Lexham English Bible
14 And I said to him, “My lord, you know.” And he said to me,
“These are the ones who have come out of the great tribulation,
and have washed their robes
and made them white in the blood of the Lamb.
15 Because of this, they are before the throne of God,
and they serve[a] him day and night in his temple,
and the one who is seated on the throne will shelter[b] them.
16 They will not be hungry any longer or be thirsty any longer,
nor will the sun ever beat down on them, nor any heat,[c]

14 “Sir,” I replied, “you know!”
“These are the ones,” he said, “who have come out of the great suffering. They have washed their clothes and made them white in the blood of the lamb. 15 That is why they are there in front of God’s throne, serving him day and night in his temple. The one who sits on the throne will shelter them with his presence. 16 They will never be hungry again, or thirsty again. The sun will not scorch them, nor will any fierce heat.
