< Revelation 5 >

1 Then I saw a scroll in the right hand of the One seated on the throne. It had writing on both sides and was sealed with seven seals.
Et vidi in dextera sedentis supra thronum, librum scriptum intus et foris, signatum sigillis septem.
2 And I saw a mighty angel proclaiming in a loud voice, “Who is worthy to break the seals and open the scroll?”
Et vidi Angelum fortem, prædicantem voce magna: Quis est dignus aperire librum, et solvere signacula eius?
3 But no one in heaven or on earth or under the earth was able to open the scroll or look inside it.
Et nemo poterat neque in cælo, neque in terra, neque subtus terram aperire librum, neque respicere illum.
4 And I began to weep bitterly, because no one was found worthy to open the scroll or look inside it.
Et ego flebam multum, quoniam nemo dignus inventus est aperire librum, nec videre eum.
5 Then one of the elders said to me, “Do not weep! Behold, the Lion of the tribe of Judah, the Root of David, has triumphed to open the scroll and its seven seals.”
Et unus de senioribus dixit mihi: Ne fleveris: ecce vicit leo de tribu Iuda, radix David, aperire librum, et solvere septem signacula eius.
6 Then I saw a Lamb who appeared to have been slain, standing in the center of the throne, encircled by the four living creatures and the elders. The Lamb had seven horns and seven eyes, which represent the seven Spirits of God sent out into all the earth.
Et vidi: et ecce in medio throni et quattuor animalium, et in medio seniorum, agnum stantem tamquam occisum, habentem cornua septem, et oculos septem: qui sunt septem spiritus Dei, missi in omnem terram.
7 And He came and took the scroll from the right hand of the One seated on the throne.
Et venit: et accepit de dextera sedentis in throno librum.
8 When He had taken the scroll, the four living creatures and the twenty-four elders fell down before the Lamb. Each one had a harp, and they were holding golden bowls full of incense, which are the prayers of the saints.
Et cum aperuisset librum, quattuor animalia, et vigintiquattuor seniores ceciderunt coram agno, habentes singuli citharas, et phialas aureas plenas odoramentorum, quæ sunt orationes sanctorum:
9 And they sang a new song: “Worthy are You to take the scroll and open its seals, because You were slain, and by Your blood You purchased for God those from every tribe and tongue and people and nation.
et cantabant canticum novum, dicentes: Dignus es Domine accipere librum, et aperire signacula eius: quoniam occisus es, et redemisti nos Deo in sanguine tuo ex omni tribu, et lingua, et populo, et natione:
10 You have made them to be a kingdom and priests to serve our God, and they will reign upon the earth.”
et fecisti nos Deo nostro regnum, et sacerdotes: et regnabimus super terram.
11 Then I looked, and I heard the voices of many angels and living creatures and elders encircling the throne, and their number was myriads of myriads and thousands of thousands.
Et vidi, et audivi vocem angelorum multorum in circuitu throni, et animalium, et seniorum: et erat numerus eorum millia millium,
12 In a loud voice they were saying: “Worthy is the Lamb, who was slain, to receive power and riches and wisdom and strength and honor and glory and blessing!”
dicentium voce magna: Dignus est Agnus, qui occisus est, accipere virtutem, et divinitatem, et sapientiam, et fortitudinem, et honorem, et gloriam, et benedictionem.
13 And I heard every creature in heaven and on earth and under the earth and in the sea, and all that is in them, saying: “To Him who sits on the throne and to the Lamb be praise and honor and glory and power forever and ever!” (aiōn g165)
Et omnem creaturam, quæ in cælo est, et super terram, et sub terra, et quæ sunt in mari, et quæ in eo: omnes audivi dicentes: Sedenti in throno, et Agno: benedictio, et honor, et gloria, et potestas in sæcula sæculorum. (aiōn g165)
14 And the four living creatures said, “Amen,” and the elders fell down and worshiped.
Et quattuor animalia dicebant: Amen. Et viginti quattuor seniores ceciderunt in facies suas: et adoraverunt viventem in sæcula sæculorum.
