Revelation 4:5-7

Holman Christian Standard Bible

⁵ Flashes of lightning and rumblings of thunder came from the throne. Seven fiery torches were burning before the throne, which are the seven spirits of God.^{(A) 6} Something like a sea of glass, similar to crystal, was also before the throne. Four living creatures^(B) covered with eyes in front and in back were in the middle^[a] and around the throne. ⁷ The first living creature was like a lion; the second living creature was like a calf; the third living creature had a face like a man; and the fourth living creature was like a flying eagle.
