(6)And I heard as it were the voice of a great multitude, and as the
sound of many waters, and as the sound of mighty thunders, saying:
Alleluia; because the Lord God the Almighty reigns. (7)Let us rejoice
and exult, and we will give to him the glory; because the marriage of
the Lamb is come, and his wife made herself ready. (8)And it was given
her that she should be clothed in fine linen, pure and shining; for
the fine linen is the righteousness of the saints.
(9)And he says to me: Write, Happy are they who are called to the
marriage-supper of the Lamb. And he says to me: These are the true
sayings of God. (10)And I fell before his feet to worship him. And he
