Revelation 7:1-3

The 144,000

After this I saw ^afour angels standing at the ^bfour corners of the earth, holding back ^cthe four winds of the earth, ^dso that no wind would blow on the earth or on the sea or on any tree. 2 Then I saw another angel ascending ^afrom the rising of the sun, having the ^bseal of ^cthe living God; and he cried out with a loud voice to the ^dfour angels to whom it was granted to harm the earth and the sea, 3 saying, “^aDo not harm the earth or the sea or the trees until we have ^bsealed the slaves of our God on their ^cforeheads.”
