This is still a very early look into the unfinished text of the Open English Translation of the Bible. Please double-check the text in advance before using in public.
9 Then I heard Yahweh call out with a loud voice, saying, “Let the guards come up to the city, each one carrying his destructive weapon.” 2 Then wow, six men came out from the pathway of the upper gate that faces north, each carrying his weapon of slaughter. There was a man among them dressed in linen with a wrter’s equipment at his side. Then they went in and stood beside the bronze altar.
3 Then the bright light representing Yisrael’s God went from the winged creature where it had been, up to the threshold of the house. Yahweh called to the man dressed in linen who had the writing equipment at his side. 4 Yahweh told him, “Go through the middle of Yerushalem City, and make a mark on the foreheads of those who complain and despair about all the disgusting things being done there in the middle of the city.”[ref]
5 Then he spoke to the others within my hearing, “Go through the city after him and kill. Don’t let yourselves have compassion, and don’t show any pity. 6 Slaughter all the old men, young men and women, little children and women, but don’t approach anyone who has the mark on their head. Begin at my sacred place.” So they began with the elders who were in front of the temple.
7 Yahweh told them, “Defile the temple, and fill its courtyards with the dead. Now go.” So they went out and started attacking the city.
8 As they were attacking it, I found myself alone and I fell to my knees with my head bowed down to the ground and cried out and said, “Ah, master Yahweh, will you destroy the entire remnant of Yisrael in the outpouring of your rage on Yerushalem?”
9 “The disobedience of the people of Yisrael and Yehudah has been extremely bad,” he answered. “The land is full of blood and the city full of perversions, since they say, ‘Yahweh has forgotten this country,’ and ‘Yahweh won’t take any notice.’ 10 So then, I won’t show compassion, and I won’t spare them, rather I’ll bring it all on their heads.”
11 Then wow, the man dressed in linen who had the writing equipment by his side came back to report, saying, “I’ve done everything you commanded.”
Rev 7:1-8:
7 After that I saw four messengers standing around the earth, holding back the four winds of the earth so that no wind would blow on land or sea or on any tree.[ref] 2 Then I saw another messenger coming up from the direction of the rising sun, and he was holding the living God’s seal. He called out loudly to the four messengers that God had permitted to damage the earth and the sea, 3 saying, “Don’t harm the earth or the sea or the trees until we can mark the seal on the foreheads of God’s servants.”[ref] 4 Then I heard the count of those who were marked with the seal. There were 144,000 from all of Israel’s tribes. 5 There were 12,000 from the tribes of Yehudah, Reuben, Gad, 6 Asher, Naftali, Manashsheh, 7 Shimeon (Simeon), Levi, Yissashkar (Issachar), 8 Zebulun, Yosef (Joseph), and Benyamin (Benjamin).
9:4:
4 However the locusts were told that they shouldn’t harm the grass or any green plants or trees, but only those people who didn’t have God’s mark on their foreheads.[ref]
14:1:
14 Then I looked and wow, the lamb was standing on Mt. Tsiyyon/Zion, and with him were 144,000 people with his name and the name of his father written on their foreheads.[ref]
