WEB World English Bible (Classic, with Deuterocanon)
1 После сего я взглянул, и вот, дверь отверста на небе, и прежний голос, который я слышал как бы звук трубы, говоривший со мною, сказал: взойди сюда, и покажу тебе, чему надлежит быть после сего.
1 DESPUÉS de estas cosas miré, y he aquí una puerta abierta en el cielo: y la primera voz que oí, [era] como de trompeta que hablaba conmigo, diciendo: Sube acá, y yo te mostraré las cosas que han de ser después de éstas.
1 After these things I looked and saw a door opened in heaven; and the first voice that I heard, like a trumpet speaking with me, was one saying, “Come up here, and I will show you the things which must happen after this.”
2 И тотчас я был в духе; и вот, престол стоял на небе, и на престоле был Сидящий;
2 Y luego yo fuí en Espíritu: y he aquí, un trono que estaba puesto en el cielo, y sobre el trono estaba uno sentado.
2 Immediately I was in the Spirit. Behold, there was a throne set in heaven, and one sitting on the throne
3 и Сей Сидящий видом был подобен камню яспису и сардису; и радуга вокруг престола, видом подобная смарагду.
3 Y el que estaba sentado, era al parecer semejante á una piedra de jaspe y de sardio: y un arco celeste [había] alrededor del trono, semejante en el aspecto á la esmeralda.
3 that looked like a jasper stone and a sardius. There was a rainbow around the throne, like an emerald to look at.
4 И вокруг престола двадцать четыре престола; а на престолах видел я сидевших двадцать четыре старца, которые облечены были в белые одежды и имели на головах своих золотые венцы.
4 Y alrededor del trono había veinticuatro sillas: y vi sobre las sillas veinticuatro ancianos sentados, vestidos de ropas blancas; y tenían sobre sus cabezas coronas de oro.
4 Around the throne were twenty-four thrones. On the thrones were twenty-four elders sitting, dressed in white garments, with crowns of gold on their heads.
5 И от престола исходили молнии и громы и гласы, и семь светильников огненных горели перед престолом, которые суть семь духов Божиих;
5 Y del trono salían relámpagos y truenos y voces: y siete lámparas de fuego estaban ardiendo delante del trono, las cuales son los siete Espíritus de Dios.
5 Out of the throne proceed lightnings, sounds, and thunders. There were seven lamps of fire burning before his throne, which are the seven Spirits of God.
6 и перед престолом море стеклянное, подобное кристаллу; и посреди престола и вокруг престола четыре животных, исполненных очей спереди и сзади.
6 Y delante del trono [había] como un mar de vidrio semejante al cristal; y en medio del trono, y alrededor del trono, cuatro animales llenos de ojos delante y detrás.
6 Before the throne was something like a sea of glass, similar to crystal. In the middle of the throne, and around the throne were four living creatures full of eyes before and behind.
7 И первое животное было подобно льву, и второе животное подобно тельцу, и третье животное имело лице, как человек, и четвертое животное подобно орлу летящему.
7 Y el primer animal [era] semejante á un león; y el segundo animal, semejante á un becerro; y el tercer animal tenía la cara como de hombre; y el cuarto animal, semejante á un águila volando.
7 The first creature was like a lion, the second creature like a calf, the third creature had a face like a man, and the fourth was like a flying eagle.
8 И каждое из четырех животных имело по шести крыл вокруг, а внутри они исполнены очей; и ни днем, ни ночью не имеют покоя, взывая: свят, свят, свят Господь Бог Вседержитель, Который был, есть и грядет.
8 Y los cuatro animales tenían cada uno por sí seis alas alrededor, y de dentro estaban llenos de ojos; y no tenían reposo día ni noche, diciendo: Santo, santo, santo el Señor Dios Todopoderoso, que era, y que es, y que ha de venir.
8 The four living creatures, each one of them having six wings, are full of eyes around and within. They have no rest day and night, saying, “Holy, holy, holy is the Lord God, the Almighty, who was and who is and who is to come!”
9 И когда животные воздают славу и честь и благодарение Сидящему на престоле, Живущему во веки веков,
9 Y cuando aquellos animales daban gloria y honra y alabanza al que estaba sentado en el trono, al que vive para siempre jamás,
9 When the living creatures give glory, honor, and thanks to him who sits on the throne, to him who lives forever and ever,
10 тогда двадцать четыре старца падают пред Сидящим на престоле, и поклоняются Живущему во веки веков, и полагают венцы свои перед престолом, говоря:
10 Los veinticuatro ancianos se postraban delante del que estaba sentado en el trono, y adoraban al que vive para siempre jamás, y echaban sus coronas delante del trono, diciendo:
10 the twenty-four elders fall down before him who sits on the throne and worship him who lives forever and ever, and throw their crowns before the throne, saying,
11 достоин Ты, Господи, приять славу и честь и силу: ибо Ты сотворил все, и все по Твоей воле существует и сотворено.
11 Señor, digno eres de recibir gloria y honra y virtud: porque tú criaste todas las cosas, y por tu voluntad tienen ser y fueron criadas.
11 “Worthy are you, our Lord and God, the Holy One, to receive the glory, the honor, and the power, for you created all things, and because of your desire they existed and were created!”

Passages from the Church Fathers that expound or quote this chapter, verbatim from the public-domain Schaff edition (19th-century English translations).
How these were chosen
“Commentary” is the opening of a homily or exposition on this chapter (John Chrysostom’s homilies, Augustine’s tractates, sermons and expositions of the Psalms). “Quotes” are sentences where the edition’s own footnotes identify a quotation of a verse here, kept only when the wording matches the verse. Only works whose authorship is not in doubt are used. Psalms follow the Hebrew/English numbering (Augustine numbers them as the Septuagint does: his Psalm 50 is Psalm 51 here).
For, [as the Scripture] says, "The first living creature was like a lion," symbolizing His effectual working, His leadership, and royal power; the second [living creature] was like a calf, signifying [His] sacrificial and sacerdotal order; but "the third had, as it were, the face as of a man,"--an evident description of His advent as a human being; "the fourth …
