After this I looked, and behold a door was open in heaven, and the first voice which I heard was as it were a trumpet talking with me, which said: come up hither, and I will she we thee things which must be fulfilled hereafter. And immediately I was in the spirit: and behold a seat was set in heaven, and one sate on the seat. And he that sate, was to look upon like a Jasper stone, and a Sardine stone: and there was a rainbow about the seat, in sight like a Smaragd. And about the seat, were xxiiii. seats. And upon the seats, xxiiii. Elders sitting, clothed in white raiment, and had on their heads crowns of Gold.
