Revelation 7

KJ3 Literal Translation — Chapter 7 of 22

1 And after these things I saw four angels standing on the four corners of the earth, holding the four winds of the earth, that wind should not blow on the earth, nor on the sea, nor on every tree.

2 And I saw another angel coming up from the rising of the sun, having a seal of the living God. And he cried with a great voice to the four angels to whom it was given to them to harm the earth and the sea,

3 saying, Do not harm the earth, nor the sea, nor the trees, until we seal the slaves of our God on their foreheads.
