Revelation 4: A Throne in Heaven

At once I was in the Spirit,
and there before me was a throne in heaven
with Someone sitting on it.
And the One who sat there
had the appearance of jasper and carnelian.
A rainbow, resembling an emerald,
encircled the throne.
Surrounding the throne
were twenty-four other thrones,
and seated on them were twenty-four elders.
There were dressed in white
and had crowns of gold on their heads.
From the throne came flashes of lightning,
rumblings and peals of thunder.
Before the throne,
seven lamps were blazing.
These are the seven spirits of God.
Also before the throne
there was what looked like
a sea of glass, clear as crystal.

(Revelation 4:2-6)
