Revelation 7:4-14

4And I heard the 1number of those who were sealed: 2144,000, sealed from every tribe of the sons of Israel: 5from the tribe of Judah, twelve thousand were sealed, from the tribe of Reuben twelve thousand, from the tribe of Gad twelve thousand, 6from the tribe of Asher twelve thousand, from the tribe of Naphtali twelve thousand, from the tribe of Manasseh twelve thousand, 7from the tribe of Simeon twelve thousand, from the tribe of Levi twelve thousand, from the tribe of Issachar twelve thousand, 8from the tribe of Zebulun twelve thousand, from the tribe of Joseph twelve thousand, and from the tribe of Benjamin, twelve thousand were sealed.

9After these things I looked, and behold, a great multitude which no one could count, from 3every nation and all the tribes, peoples, and languages, standing 4before the throne and 5before the Lamb, clothed in 6white robes, and 7palm branches were in their hands; 10and they cried out with a loud voice, saying, “8Salvation belongs to our God 9who sits on the throne, and to the Lamb.” 11And all the angels were standing 10around the throne and around 11the elders and the 12four living creatures; and they 13fell on their faces before the throne and worshiped God, 12saying, “14Amen, 15blessing, glory, wisdom, thanksgiving, honor, power, and might belong to our God forever and ever. 16Amen.”

13Then one of the elders 17responded, saying to me, “These who are clothed in the 18white robes, who are they, and where have they come from?” 14I 19said to him, “My lord, you know.” And he said to me, “These are the ones who come out of the 20great tribulation, and they have 21washed their robes and made them 22white in the 23blood of the Lamb.
