Exegesis
Finally, echontas kitharas tou theou {ἔχοντας κιθάρας τοῦ θεοῦ | échontas kitháras tou theoû} adds the detail that they hold harps belonging to God, preparing the reader for the worship that follows. In translation, the dense chain of Greek participles is rendered with finite verbs and participial phrases so that the sequence of seeing, standing, and holding remains clear while reflecting the continuous, flowing nature of the vision.
In context — Revelation 15:2
And I saw what looked like a sea of glass mixed with fire, and those who had conquered the beast and its image and the number of its name, standing on the sea of glass, holding harps of God .
