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 in the right hand of him that sits on the throne, a book written within and without, 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 a strong angel crying with a great voice: Who is worthy to open the book, and to break its seals?

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 one in heaven, or on earth, or under the earth, was able to open the book, or to look upon 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 one was found worthy to open the book, or to look upon it.

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

And one of the elders said to me: Weep not: behold, the Lion of the tribe of Judah, the root of David, has the power to open the book and its seven seals.

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 saw, in the midst of the throne, and of the four living creatures, and in the midst of the elders, a Lamb standing, like one that had been slain, having seven horns and seven eyes, which are the seven spirits of God that are sent into all the earth.

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 sits on 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 creatures, and the twenty-four elders fell down before the Lamb, having, each of them, harps, and golden cups full of incense, which is 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: Thou art worthy to take the book, and to open its seals: for thou wast slain, and hast redeemed us to 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 to our God kings and priests, and we shall reign on 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 saw, and I heard the voice of many angels round about the throne and the living creatures and the elders; and the number of them 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."

And they said, with a loud voice: Worthy is the Lamb that was slain, to receive power and riches and wisdom and strength and honor 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 that is in heaven, and on the earth, and under the earth, and such as are on the sea, even all that are in them, I heard saying: To him that sits on the throne, and to the Lamb, be blessing and honor and glory and strength from age to age. (aiōn g165)

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

And the four living creatures said, Amen; and the elders fell down, and worshiped.
