Revelation 4:1-3
1After 1these things I looked, and behold, 2a door standing open in heaven, and the first voice which I had heard, 3like the sound of a trumpet speaking with me, said, “4Come up here, and I will 5show you what must take place after these things.”
2Immediately I was 6in the 7Spirit; and behold, 8a throne was standing in heaven, and 9someone was sitting on the throne.
3And He who was sitting was like a 10jasper stone and a 11sardius in appearance; and there was a 1213rainbow around the throne, like an 14emerald in appearance.
