Actually, this says that those who take the mark of the beast will be tortured before/in the sight of the angels and the Lamb, and their torment is “to perpetuity perpetuity,” “eis aion aion.”

Rev 14:9 And the third angel followed them, saying with a loud voice, If any man worship the beast and his image, and receive his mark in his forehead, or in his hand,
Rev 14:10 The same shall drink of the wine of the wrath of God, which is poured out without mixture into the cup of his indignation; and he shall be tormented with fire and brimstone in the presence of the holy angels, and in the presence of the Lamb:
Rev 14:11 And the smoke of their torment ascendeth up for ever and ever: and they have no rest day nor night, who worship the beast and his image, and whosoever receiveth the mark of his name.

These verses are instructive and indicate the punishment before God and the angels, but do they necessitate a continued presence of the divine for the “for ever and ever” spoken of? Or is it that they pass into the state of judgement before all present as they enter hell.
