The Cambridge Paragraph Bible of the Authorized English VersionOther versions
43And in the midst of them there was a hyoung man of a high stature, taller than all the rest, and upon every one of their heads dhe set crowns, and was more exalted; which I marvelled at greatly. 44So I asked ethe angel, and said, fSir, what are these? 45He answered and said unto me, These be they gthat have put off the mortal clothing, and put on the immortal, and have confessed the name of God: now dare they crowned, and creceive palms. 46Then said I unto ethe angel, What hyoung person is it that crowneth them, and giveth them palms in their hands? 47So he answered and said unto me, dIt is the Son of God, whom they have confessed in the world. Then began I greatly to commend them that stood so stiffly for the name of the Lord.
