10 They cried with a loud voice, saying, "Salvation be to our God, who sits on the throne, and to the Lamb!"
After these things I heard something like a loud voice of a great multitude in heaven, saying, "Hallelujah! Salvation, power, and glory belong to our God:
Salvation belongs to Yahweh. Your blessing be on your people. Selah.
There will be no curse any more. The throne of God and of the Lamb will be in it, and his servants serve him.
He who sits on the throne said, "Behold, I am making all things new." He said, "Write, for these words of God are faithful and true."
The next day, he saw Jesus coming to him, and said, "Behold, the Lamb of God, who takes away the sin of the world!
Declare you, and bring [it] forth; yes, let them take counsel together: who has shown this from ancient time? who has declared it of old? Haven't I, Yahweh? and there is no God else besides me, a just God and a Savior; there is no one besides me.
I, even I, am Yahweh; and besides me there is no savior.
I heard every created thing which is in heaven, on the earth, under the earth, on the sea, and everything in them, saying, "To him who sits on the throne, and to the Lamb be the blessing, the honor, the glory, and the dominion, forever and ever! Amen!{TR omits "Amen!"}" The four living creatures said, "Amen!" The {TR adds "twenty-four"}elders fell down and worshiped.{TR adds "the one living forever and ever"}
But the salvation of the righteous is from Yahweh. He is their stronghold in the time of trouble.
When the living creatures give glory, honor, and thanks to him who sits on the throne, to him who lives forever and ever, the twenty-four elders fall down before him who sits on the throne, and worship him who lives forever and ever, and throw their crowns before the throne, saying, "Worthy are you, our Lord and God, the Holy One,{TR omits "and God, the Holy One,"} to receive the glory, the honor, and the power, for you created all things, and because of your desire they existed, and were created!"
Before the throne was something like a sea of glass, similar to crystal. In the midst of the throne, and around the throne were four living creatures full of eyes before and behind.
You worship that which you don't know. We worship that which we know; for salvation is from the Jews.
and he looked at Jesus as he walked, and said, "Behold, the Lamb of God!"
Who are you, great mountain? Before Zerubbabel you are a plain; and he will bring out the capstone with shouts of 'Grace, grace, to it!'"
"Yet I am Yahweh your God from the land of Egypt; And you will know no god but me, And besides me there is no savior.
