I saw, and behold, the Lamb standing on Mount Zion, and with him a number, one hundred forty-four thousand, having his name and the name of his Father written on their foreheads.
I heard a sound from heaven like the sound of many waters and like the sound of a great thunder.
The sound which I heard was like that of harpists playing on their harps.
They sing a new song before the throne and before the four living creatures and the elders.
No one could learn the song except the one hundred forty-four thousand, those who had been redeemed out of the earth.
