- Revelation 7:5-8
- Rev 7:5 (KJV)
- Of the tribe of Juda were sealed twelve thousand. Of the
tribe of Reuben were sealed twelve thousand. Of the tribe of
Gad were sealed twelve thousand.
- Rev 7:6 (KJV)
- Of the tribe of Aser were sealed twelve thousand. Of the
tribe of Nephthalim were sealed twelve thousand. Of the tribe
of Manasses were sealed twelve thousand.
- Rev 7:7 (KJV)
- Of the tribe of Simeon were sealed twelve thousand. Of the
tribe of Levi were sealed twelve thousand. Of the tribe of
Issachar were sealed twelve thousand.
- Rev 7:8 (KJV)
- Of the tribe of Zabulon were sealed twelve thousand. Of
the tribe of Joseph were sealed twelve thousand. Of the tribe
of Benjamin were sealed twelve thousand.
-
- The same word is omitted completely in some of the modern versions. That
word is “sealed” which is used twelve times in this listing. It is used once
before the “twelve thousand” in all four verses, three times in each verse.
I am going to list the versions and next to the name of the version, I will
list which ones are included with their corresponding tribe and which ones
are missing.
