And there were (B)seven lamps of fire burning before the throne, which are [a](C)the seven spirits of God; and before the throne there was something like a (D)sea of glass, like crystal; and in the [b]center and (E)around the throne, (F)four living creatures (G)full of eyes in front and behind. (H)The first living creature was like a lion, the second creature like a calf, the third creature had a face like that of a man, and the fourth creature was like a flying eagle.
