Revelation 5
1 I saw the one sitting on the throne holding a scroll in his right hand. The scroll was written on both sides and was sealed with seven seals.
A i kite ano ahau i te ringa matau o tera e noho ra i runga i te torona, he pukapuka kua oti te tuhituhi a roto, a tua hoki, he mea hiri ki nga hiri e whitu.
2 I saw a powerful angel shouting in a loud voice, “Who is worthy to open the scroll and break its seals?”
A i kite ahau i tetahi anahera kaha e karanga ana, he nui te reo, Ko wai e tika ana hei whakatuwhera i te pukapuka, hei wawahi i ona hiri?
3 Nobody in heaven, or on earth, or under the earth was able to open the scroll and read it.
A kihai i taea e tetahi i te rangi, i te whenua ranei, i raro ranei i te whenua, te whewhera i te pukapuka, te titiro ranei ki reira.
4 I cried many tears because nobody could be found who was worthy to open the book and read it.
Na nui atu toku tangi, no te mea kihai i kitea tetahi e tika ana hei whewhera i te pukapuka, hei titiro iho ranei ki reira:
5 One of the elders spoke to me and said, “Don't cry. Look, the Lion of the tribe of Judah, the descendant of David, has won the battle and can open the scroll and its seven seals.”
Na ka mea mai tetahi o nga kaumatua ki ahau, Kaua e tangi, na, kua riro te wikitoria i te Raiona o te hapu o Hura, i te Putake o Rawiri, mana e whakatuwhera te pukapuka, e wawahi ona hiri e whitu.
6 I saw a Lamb that looked as if it had been killed standing in the center by the throne and the four living creatures, among the elders. He had seven horns and seven eyes that are the seven Spirits of God that are sent out to all the earth.
A i kite ano ahau, na, i waenganui o te torona, o nga mea ora hoki e wha, i waenganui ano hoki o nga kaumatua, he Reme e tu ana, te ahua kei to te mea i whakamatea, e whitu ona haona, e whitu nga kanohi; ko nga Wairua e whitu enei o te Atua, kua tonoa nei puta noa i te ao.
7 He went and took the scroll from the right hand of the one that sat on the throne.
Na ka haere atu ia, ka tango i te pukapuka i roto i te matau o tera e noho ra i runga i te torona.
8 When he had taken the scroll, the four living creatures and the twenty-four elders fell down before the Lamb. Each of them had a harp and golden bowls full of incense, which are the prayers of the believers.
A, no ka tango ia i te pukapuka, ka hinga iho nga mea ora e wha, me nga kaumatua e rua tekau ma wha, ki te aroaro o te Reme, he hapa i tetahi, i tetahi o ratou, me nga oko koura ki tonu i nga mea kakara, ko nga inoi era a te hunga tapu.
9 They sang a new song, “You are worthy to take the scroll and open its seals, for you were slain and with your blood you redeemed for God people from every tribe, language, people, and nation.
Na ka waiata ratou i te waiata hou, ka mea, Pai tonu koe hei tango i te pukapuka, hei wahi i ona hiri: i whakamatea hoki koe, a hokona ana matou e koe hei hunga ma te Atua ki ou toto, i roto i nga hapu, i nga reo, i nga huihuinga tangata, i nga i wi katoa;
10 You made them into a kingdom and priests for our God, and they will reign on the earth.”
A meinga ana ratou e koe hei kingi, hei tohunga ki to matou Atua: ka kingi ano ratou ki runga ki te whenua.
11 As I looked I heard the voices of millions of angels around the throne, together with the living creatures and the elders,
Na i kite ahau, i rongo hoki ahau i te reo o nga anahera maha i nga taha katoa o te torona, o nga mea ora hoki, o nga kaumatua: na ko to ratou tokomaha kei nga mano tekau mano tekau, me nga mano mano;
12 shouting loudly together: “The Lamb that was slain is worthy to receive authority, wealth, wisdom, strength, honor, glory, and blessing.”
Nui atu to ratou reo ki te mea mai, Pai tonu te Reme i whakamatea hei tango i te kaha, i te taonga, i te matauranga, i te mana, i te honore, i te kororia, i te whakapai.
13 Then I heard every creature in heaven, on earth, and under the earth, in the sea—every creature everywhere—replying: “To the one who sits on the throne, and to the Lamb be blessing, honor, glory, and authority, for ever and ever.” (aiōn g165)
I rongo ano ahau ki nga mea hanga katoa o te rangi, o te whenua, i raro ano hoki i te whenua, ki era hoki i te moana, ki nga mea katoa o reira, e mea ana, Waiho atu i tenei e noho nei i runga i te torona, i te Reme hoki, te whakapai, te honore, te kororia, te kaha a ake ake. (aiōn g165)
14 The four living creatures said, “Amen!” and the elders fell down and worshiped.
Na ka mea nga mea ora e wha, Amine. A ka hinga iho nga kaumatua, ka koropiko.
