13. And one of the elders responded and said to me: "These ones who are clothed in white robes, who are they? And where did they come from?"
14. And I said to him, "My lord, you know." And he said to me: "These are the ones who have come out of the great tribulation, and they have washed their robes and have made them white by the blood of the Lamb.
15. Therefore, they are before the throne of God, and they serve him, day and night, in his temple. And the One who sits upon the throne shall dwell over them.
16. They shall not hunger, nor shall they thirst, anymore. Neither shall the sun beat down upon them, nor any heat.
17. For the Lamb, who is in the midst of the throne, will rule over them, and he will lead them to the fountains of the waters of life. And God will wipe away every tear from their eyes."
