I do not believe it can be interpreted that way, as it seems contrary to the rest of scripture, those unbelieving kings are political powers, knowing their identity and ruling over unbelieving gentiles, maybe giving their power to a uniting nations. Here in Revelations 7:4 before the great tribulation (prior to Revelations 17:12-14 during the great tribulation) the scattered, at that time of fulfilment, as formerly identity-lost tribes (Reuben, Gad, Asher, Naphtali, Manasseh, Simeon, Issachar, Zebulun, Joseph/Ephraim) unbeknownst formerly of their Ephraimite-Israelite identity, (contrary to the Jewish Judahite-Israelite tribes of Judah, Benjamin and Levi, knowing their identity) gets marked by God before the time of the great tribulation. You can not have the mark of the beast and give your power to the beast, and have God's mark:
John 11 (ESV)
49 But one of them, Caiaphas, who was high priest that year, said to them, "You know nothing at all.
50 Nor do you understand that it is better for you that one man should die for the people, not that the whole nation should perish."
51 He did not say this of his own accord, but being high priest that year he prophesied that
Jesus would die for the nation,
52 and not for the nation only, but also
to gather into one the children of God who are scattered abroad.
Romans 11 (ESV)
26 And
in this way all Israel will be saved, as it is written, "The Deliverer will come from Zion, he will banish ungodliness from Jacob";
27 "and this will be my covenant with them when I take away their sins."
Revelation 7 (ESV)
1 After this I saw four angels standing at the four corners of the earth, holding back the four winds of the earth, that no wind might blow on earth or sea or against any tree.
2 Then I saw another angel ascending from the rising of the sun, with the seal of the living God, and he called with a loud voice to the four angels who had been given power to harm earth and sea,
3 saying, "Do not harm the earth or the sea or the trees, until we have sealed the servants of our God on their foreheads."
4 And I heard the number of the sealed,
144,000, sealed from every tribe of the sons of Israel:
5 12,000 from the tribe of Judah were sealed, 12,000 from the tribe of Reuben, 12,000 from the tribe of Gad,
6 12,000 from the tribe of Asher, 12,000 from the tribe of Naphtali, 12,000 from the tribe of Manasseh,
7 12,000 from the tribe of Simeon, 12,000 from the tribe of Levi, 12,000 from the tribe of Issachar,
8 12,000 from the tribe of Zebulun, 12,000 from the tribe of Joseph, 12,000 from the tribe of Benjamin were sealed.
9 After this I looked, and behold, a great multitude that no one could number, from every nation, from all tribes and peoples and languages, standing before the throne and before the Lamb, clothed in white robes, with palm branches in their hands,
13 Then one of the elders addressed me, saying, "Who are these, clothed in white robes, and from where have they come?"
14 I said to him, "Sir, you know." And he said to me, "These are the ones coming out of
the great tribulation. They have washed their robes and made them white in the blood of the Lamb.
