Revelation 5

1 I saw, in the right hand of him who sat on the throne, a scroll written inside and on the back, sealed shut with seven seals.

AND I saw on the right hand of him who was seated on the throne a volume of a book written within, and on the back sealed with seven seals.

2 I saw a mighty angel proclaiming with a loud voice, "Who is worthy to open the scroll, and to break its seals?"

And I saw mighty angel proclaiming with a loud voice, Who is worthy to open the book, and to break the seals thereon?

3 No one in heaven above, or on the earth, or under the earth, was able to open the scroll, or to look in it.

And no man was able in heaven, nor upon earth, nor under the earth, to open the book, nor to look into it.

4 And I wept much, because no one was found worthy to open the scroll, or to look in it.

And I wept much because no man was found worthy either to open or read the book, or even to look upon it.

5 One of the elders said to me, "Do not weep. Look, the Lion who is of the tribe of Yehudah, the Root of Dawid, has overcome so that he can open the scroll and loose its seven seals."

And one of the presbyters said unto me, Weep not: behold the lion who is of the tribe of Judah, the root of David, hath prevailed, to open the book, and to break the seven seals upon it.

6 I saw in the midst of the throne and of the four living creatures, and in the midst of the elders, a Lamb standing, as though it had been slain, having seven horns, and seven eyes, which are the seven Spirits of God, sent out into all the earth.

And I beheld, and lo! in the midst of the throne, and of the four living beings, and in the midst of the presbyters, stood a lamb as just slaughtered, having seven horns and seven eyes, which are the seven spirits of God that are sent forth into all the world:

7 Then he came, and he took it out of the right hand of him who sat on the throne.

and he came and took the book out of the right hand of him that was seated upon the throne.

8 Now when he had taken the scroll, the four living creatures and the twenty-four elders fell down before the Lamb, each one having a harp, and golden bowls full of incense, which are the prayers of the saints.

And when he had taken the book, the four living beings and the four and twenty presbyters prostrated themselves before the lamb, having each harps, and vases of gold, full of perfumes smoaking, which are the prayers of the saints.

9 They sang a new song, saying, "You are worthy to take the scroll, and to open its seals: for you were killed, and redeemed for God with your blood those from every tribe, language, people, and nation,

And they sung a new song, saying, Worthy art thou to take the book, and to open the seals thereon; because thou hast been slaughtered, and hast redeemed us for God by thy blood, out of every tribe, and tongue, and people, and nation;

10 and made them a kingdom and priests to our God, and they will reign on earth."

and hast made us for our God kings and priests, and we shall reign upon the earth.

11 I saw, and I heard the voice of many angels around the throne, the living creatures, and the elders; and the number of them was ten thousands of ten thousands, and thousands of thousands;

And I looked, and heard the voice of many angels around the throne, and the living beings, and the presbyters, and their number was myriads of myriads and thousands of thousands,

12 saying with a loud voice, "Worthy is the Lamb who has been killed to receive the power, wealth, wisdom, strength, honor, glory, and blessing."

crying with a loud voice, Worthy is the slaughtered lamb to receive power, and riches, and wisdom, and might, and honour, and glory, and blessing.

13 I heard every created thing which is in heaven, on the earth, under the earth, on the sea, and everything in them, saying, "To him who sits on the throne, and to the Lamb be the blessing, the honor, the glory, and the dominion, forever and ever." (aiōn g165)

And every creature which is in heaven, and on the earth, and under the earth, and those who are on the sea, and all things which are therein, heard I, saying, To him who is seated on the throne, and to the lamb, be blessing, and honour, and glory, and might for ever and ever. (aiōn g165)

14 The four living creatures were saying, "Amen." The elders fell down and worshiped.

And the four living beings said, Amen. And the four and twenty presbyters prostrated themselves, and worshipped him that liveth for ever and ever.
