Exegesis
echontas {τοὺς νικῶντας ... ἑστῶτας ... ἔχοντας | toùs nikôntas ... hestôtas ... échontas} functions as an additional object of eidon, so that John sees both the sea and the people: they are defined by ongoing conquering, a firmly established stance, and the possession of harps.
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 .
