16 The 24 elders, who were seated before God on their thrones, fell facedown and worshiped God, 17 saying:

We thank You, Lord God, the Almighty,
who is and who was,[a](A)
because You have taken Your great power
and have begun to reign.(B)
18 The nations were angry,(C)
but Your wrath has come.
The time has come
for the dead to be judged
and to give the reward
to Your servants the prophets,(D)
to the saints, and to those who fear Your name,
both small and great,(E)
and the time has come to destroy
those who destroy the earth.
