    10And cried with a loud voice, saying, Salvation to our God which sitteth upon the throne, and unto the Lamb.

    11And all the angels stood round about the throne, and about the elders and the four beasts, and fell before the throne on their faces, and worshipped God,

    16They shall hunger no more, neither thirst any more; neither shall the sun light on them, nor any heat.

    17For the Lamb which is in the midst of the throne shall feed them, and shall lead them unto living fountains of waters: and God shall wipe away all tears from their eyes.
