Shall fall down (pesountai, future middle of piptō), shall worship (proskunēsousin, future active of proskuneō), shall cast their crowns (balousin tous stephanous, future active of ballō). The two actions by the two groups (living creatures, elders) are coordinated (simultaneous in the repetition). They thus acknowledge that all this kingly dignity comes from God, who is King of kings and Lord of lords. Charles takes the elders, however, to be angels, not redeemed men.
