'Praise our God, all you his servants, you that fear him, both great and small!' 19 6 Again I heard what sounded like a vast crowd, like the noise of rushing water and deep roars of thunder, and they cried:
'Alleluia! The Lord our God, sovereign over all, has entered on his reign! 19 7 Exult and shout for joy and do him homage, for the wedding-day of the Lamb has come! His bride has made herself ready, 19 8 and for her dress she has been given fine linen, clean and shining.'
(Now the fine linen signifies the righteous deeds of God's people.) 19 9 Then the angel said to me, 'Write this: "Happy are those who are invited to the wedding-supper of the Lamb!" ' And he added, 'These are the very words of God.' 19 10 At this I fell at his feet to worship him. But he said to me, 'No, not that! I am but a fellow-servant with you and your brothers who bear their testimony to Jesus. It is God you must worship. Those who bear testimony to Jesus are inspired like the prophets.' Or: ... worship. For testimony to Jeus is the spirit that inspires prophets.
