Translation

Then I looked

and behold,

the LAMB was

standing

upon Mt ZION,

Go to footnote number

and with Him were

144,000

who have His name and

the name of His Father written on their foreheads.

Paraphrase

Then I looked again, and, Oh, you should have seen this, there was THE ONLY EFFICACIOUS SACRIFICE who was victorious, and was a SIGNPOST for a proper connection between earth and heaven, and with Him were absolutely all those who keep

His reputation and

the reputation of His Father

as their top priority.

The name “Zion” means “Signpost,” but it was known by the Jews as one of key places where God met with His people. In the paraphrase I have incorporated both ideas.
