The Marriage Supper of the Lamb
6 Then I heard what seemed to be the voice of a great multitude, jlike the roar of many waters and klike the sound of mighty peals of thunder, crying out,
“Hallelujah!
For the Lord our God
the Almighty lreigns.
7 Let us rejoice and exult
and give him the glory,
for the marriage of the mLamb has come,
and his nBride has made herself ready;
8 it was granted her to clothe herself
with fine linen, bright and pure”—
for the fine linen is the righteous deeds of the saints.
9 And the angel said1 to me, o“Write this: pBlessed are those who are invited to the marriage supper of the Lamb.” And he said to me, q“These are the true words of God.”
6 On this fmountain the Lord of hosts will make for all peoples
a feast of rich food, a feast of well-aged wine,
of rich food full of marrow, of aged wine well refined.
7 And he will swallow up on this mountain
the covering that is cast over all peoples,
the veil that is spread over all nations.
8 gHe will swallow up death forever;
and the Lord God will hwipe away tears from all faces,
and the reproach of his people he will take away from all the earth,
for the Lord has spoken.
9 It will be said on that day,
“Behold, this is our God; we have waited for him, that he might save us.
This is the Lord; we have waited for him;
let us be glad and rejoice in his salvation.”
