Apocalipse 7

Os cento e quarenta e quatro mil selados de Israel
1Depois disso, vi quatro anjos em pé nos quatro cantos da terra, segurando os quatro ventos#Zc 6.5 da terra, para que nenhum vento soprasse sobre a terra, nem sobre o mar, nem sobre árvore alguma. 2Vi outro anjo que subia do nascente do sol, tendo o selo do Deus vivo. Ele gritou com voz bem forte aos quatro anjos, aqueles que tinham recebido poder para causar dano à terra e ao mar, 3dizendo:
— Não danifiquem nem a terra, nem o mar, nem as árvores, até marcarmos com um selo a testa dos servos do nosso Deus.#Ez 9.4
4Então ouvi o número dos que foram marcados com selo. Eram cento e quarenta e quatro mil,#Ap 14.1,3 de todas as tribos dos filhos de Israel.#Gn 35.22-26 5Da tribo de Judá foram marcados com selo doze mil; da tribo de Rúben, doze mil; da tribo de Gade, doze mil; 6da tribo de Aser, doze mil; da tribo de Naftali, doze mil; da tribo de Manassés, doze mil; 7da tribo de Simeão, doze mil; da tribo de Levi, doze mil; da tribo de Issacar, doze mil; 8da tribo de Zebulom, doze mil; da tribo de José, doze mil; da tribo de Benjamim foram marcados com selo doze mil.
A visão dos glorificados
9Depois destas coisas, vi, e eis grande multidão que ninguém podia contar, de todas as nações, tribos, povos e línguas,#Ap 5.9 em pé diante do trono e diante do Cordeiro, vestidos de vestes brancas,#Ap 6.11 com ramos de palmeira nas mãos. 10E clamavam com voz forte, dizendo:
“Ao nosso Deus,
que está sentado no trono,
e ao Cordeiro,
pertence a salvação.”
11Todos os anjos estavam em pé rodeando o trono,#Ap 4.4,6 os anciãos e os quatro seres viventes, e diante do trono se prostraram sobre o seu rosto, e adoraram a Deus,#Ap 11.16 12dizendo:
“Amém! O louvor, a glória,
a sabedoria, as ações de graças,
a honra, o poder e a força
sejam ao nosso Deus,
para todo o sempre. Amém!”
13Um dos anciãos tomou a palavra e me perguntou:
— Quem são e de onde vieram estes que estão vestidos de branco?
14Respondi:
— O senhor sabe.
Então ele me disse:
— Estes são os que vêm da grande tribulação,#Dn 12.1; Mt 24.21; Mc 13.19 que lavaram suas vestes e as alvejaram no sangue do Cordeiro.#1Jo 1.7; Ap 22.14 15Por isso, estão diante do trono de Deus e o adoram de dia e de noite no seu santuário. E aquele que está sentado no trono estenderá sobre eles o seu tabernáculo.#Ap 21.3 16Jamais terão fome,#Is 49.10 nunca mais terão sede, não cairá sobre eles o sol, nem qualquer outro calor forte, 17pois o Cordeiro que está no meio do trono os apascentará#Sl 23.1; Ez 34.23 e os guiará para as fontes#Sl 23.2 da água da vida. E Deus lhes enxugará dos olhos toda lágrima.#Is 25.8

The 144,000 of Israel Sealed
1After this I saw four angels standing at the four corners of the earth, holding back #Jer. 49:36; Dan. 7:2 the four winds of the earth, #[ver. 3]that no wind might blow on earth or sea or against any tree. 2Then I saw another angel ascending #ch. 16:12 from the rising of the sun, with #ch. 9:4the seal of the living God, and he called with a loud voice to the four angels who had been given power to harm earth and sea, 3saying, #ch. 6:6; 9:4 “Do not harm the earth or the sea or the trees, until we have sealed the servants of our God #ch. 14:1; 22:4; Ezek. 9:4; [ch. 13:16; Ezek. 3:8, 9]on their foreheads.” 4And #ch. 9:16I heard the number of the sealed, 144,000, sealed from every tribe of the sons of Israel:
512,000 from the tribe of Judah were sealed,
12,000 from the tribe of Reuben,
12,000 from the tribe of Gad,
612,000 from the tribe of Asher,
12,000 from the tribe of Naphtali,
12,000 from the tribe of Manasseh,
712,000 from the tribe of Simeon,
12,000 from the tribe of Levi,
12,000 from the tribe of Issachar,
812,000 from the tribe of Zebulun,
12,000 from the tribe of Joseph,
12,000 from the tribe of Benjamin were sealed.
A Great Multitude from Every Nation
9After this I looked, and behold, #[Rom. 11:25] a great multitude that no one could number, #ch. 5:9 from every nation, from all tribes and peoples and languages, standing before the throne and before the Lamb, #ver. 14; See ch. 3:4 clothed in white robes, with #[Lev. 23:40; John 12:13]palm branches in their hands, 10and crying out with a loud voice, #ch. 12:10; 19:1; See Ps. 3:8“Salvation belongs to our God who sits on the throne, and to the Lamb!” 11And all the angels were standing around the throne and around the elders and #ch. 4:6 the four living creatures, and they #See ch. 4:10fell on their faces before the throne and worshiped God, 12#ch. 5:14; 19:4; [1 Chr. 29:10, 11]saying, “Amen! Blessing and glory and wisdom and thanksgiving and honor and power and might be to our God forever and ever! Amen.”
13Then one of the elders addressed me, saying, “Who are these, #[See ver. 9 above]clothed in white robes, and from where have they come?” 14I said to him, “Sir, you know.” And he said to me, “These are the ones coming out of #See Matt. 24:21 the great tribulation. #ch. 22:14; [Isa. 1:18; Zech. 3:3-5] They have washed their robes and #[Dan. 12:10; 1 John 1:7] made them white #ch. 1:5in the blood of the Lamb.
15“Therefore they are before the throne of God,
and #ch. 22:3 serve him day and night in his temple;
and he who sits on the throne #ch. 21:3; [Isa. 4:5, 6]will shelter them with his presence.
16 #
Isa. 49:10 They shall hunger no more, neither thirst anymore;
#
Ps. 121:6
the sun shall not strike them,
nor any scorching heat.
17For the Lamb in the midst of the throne #Ps. 23:1, 2; [Matt. 2:6]; See John 10:11 will be their shepherd,
and he will guide them to springs of #ch. 22:1; [Ps. 36:8, 9; John 4:14] living water,
and #ch. 21:4; Isa. 25:8God will wipe away every tear from their eyes.”
