Plenty Crowd Wey Nobody Fit Count

⁹After dis one, I see one big crowd wey nobody fit count, from every nation, tribe, people, and language, wey stand for front of di throne and for front of di Lamb, wey wear white cloth, and dem hold palm branch for dem hand. ¹⁰Dem shout loud loud say, “Salvation na for our Papa, wey siddon for di throne, and for di Lamb!”

¹¹All di angels stand round di throne, and round di elders, and di four living creatures, den dem fall face down for front of di throne, dem worship our Papa, ¹²dem talk say, “Amen! Blessing, glory, wisdom, thank you, honour, power, and strength, na for our Papa forever and ever! Amen.”

¹³Den one of di elders ask me say, “Dis people wey wear white cloth—na who dem be, and na where dem comot from?”

¹⁴I talk say, “My oga, na you know.” E talk say, “Dis people na from di great tribulation dem comot; dem wash dem cloth, dem make am white for di blood of di Lamb.”

¹⁵Na why dem dey for front of di throne of our Papa, dey serve am day and night for im temple; and di one wey siddon for di throne go cover dem with im tent. ¹⁶Hunger no go catch dem again, and thirst no go catch dem again; di sun no go beat dem, and no hot heat go touch dem. ¹⁷Because di Lamb wey dey di center of di throne go shepherd dem, and e go lead dem go di springs of living water; and our Papa go wipe away every tear from dem eye. ^b b v17 Na our Papa imsef — no be angel, no be servant — dey wipe di tears comot from di eye of im pikin dem.
