Rejoicing in Heaven

Revelation 19

1 After these things a I 1 heard a loud voice of a great multitude in heaven, saying, "Alleluia! b Salvation and glory and honor and power belong to 2 the Lord our God! 2 "For c true and righteous are His judgments, because He has judged the great harlot who corrupted the earth with her fornication; and He d has avenged on her the blood of His servants shed by her."

3 Again they said, "Alleluia! e Her smoke rises up forever and ever!"

4 And f the twenty-four elders and the four living creatures fell down and worshiped God who sat on the throne, saying, g "Amen! Alleluia!"

5 Then a voice came from the throne, saying, h "Praise our God, all you His servants and those who fear Him, i both 3 small and great!"
