OET (OET-LV) and the one sitting was similar in_appearance to_a_stone, jasper and sardius, and a_rainbow around the throne was similar in_appearance to_an_emerald.

OET (OET-RV) The one sitting there sparkled like jewels, and an emerald-looking rainbow encircled the throne.

uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: translate-unknown

ὅμοιος ὁράσει λίθῳ, ἰάσπιδι καὶ σαρδίῳ & ὅμοιος ὁράσει σμαραγδίνῳ

similar ˱in˲_appearance ˱to˲_˓a˒_stone jasper similar ˱in˲_appearance (Some words not found in SR-GNT: καί ὁ καθήμενος ὅμοιος ὁράσει λίθῳ ἰάσπιδι καί σαρδίῳ καί ἶρις κυκλόθεν τοῦ θρόνου ὅμοιος ὁράσει σμαραγδίνῳ)

The point of these comparisons is that the one sitting on the throne and the rainbow were dazzling in their appearance, like the gemstones John describes. If it would be helpful in your language, you could make this point explicitly. Alternate translation: [was dazzling in appearance, like a jasper stone and a carnelian … dazzling in appearance like an emerald]

Note 2 topic: translate-unknown

λίθῳ, ἰάσπιδι καὶ σαρδίῳ & σμαραγδίνῳ

˱to˲_˓a˒_stone jasper (Some words not found in SR-GNT: καί ὁ καθήμενος ὅμοιος ὁράσει λίθῳ ἰάσπιδι καί σαρδίῳ καί ἶρις κυκλόθεν τοῦ θρόνου ὅμοιος ὁράσει σμαραγδίνῳ)

The terms jasper, carnelian, and emerald describe gemstones. Jasper is often red, carnelian is often orange, and emerald is usually brilliant green. If your readers would not be familiar with these precious stones, in your translation you could use the name of comparable gems that they would recognize, or you could use general expressions. Alternate translation: [to a red or orange gemstone … to a brilliant green gemstone]

TSN Tyndale Study Notes:

4:3 Rather than painting a visual picture of God (Exod 20:4; Deut 4:15-19), John uses gemstones and the rainbow (Gen 9:8-17; Ezek 1:28) to suggest God’s qualities. The rainbow speaks of God’s grace as it recalls God’s covenant with Noah (Gen 9:13-17) that he would never again destroy the earth with water. In Revelation, however, we see the earth destroyed by fire (cp. Gen 19:24-29).
