There were seven lamps of fire burning before the throne, which are the seven Spirits of God. 6 Before the throne there was a sea of glass, like crystal.

And they do not rest day or night, saying, "Holy, holy, holy, Lord God Almighty, who was, and is, and is to come." 9 Whenever the living creatures give glory and honor and thanks to Him who sits on the throne, who lives forever and ever, 10 the twenty-four elders fall down before Him who sits on the throne and worship Him who lives forever and ever, and cast their crowns before the throne, saying, 11 "You are worthy, O Lord, to receive glory, honor, and power; for You created all things, and by Your will they exist and were created."
