< 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.
Et vidi in dextera sedentis supra thronum, librum scriptum intus et foris, signatum sigillis septem.
2 I saw a mighty angel proclaiming with a loud voice, "Who is worthy to open the scroll, and to break its seals?"
Et vidi Angelum fortem, prædicantem voce magna: Quis est dignus aperire librum, et solvere signacula eius?
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.
Et nemo poterat neque in cælo, neque in terra, neque subtus terram aperire librum, neque respicere illum.
4 And I wept much, because no one was found worthy to open the scroll, or to look in it.
Et ego flebam multum, quoniam nemo dignus inventus est aperire librum, nec videre eum.
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."
Et unus de senioribus dixit mihi: Ne fleveris: ecce vicit leo de tribu Iuda, radix David, aperire librum, et solvere septem signacula eius.
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.
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 Then he came, and he took it out of the right hand of him who sat on the throne.
Et venit: et accepit de dextera sedentis in throno librum.
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.
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 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,
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 and made them a kingdom and priests to our God, and they will reign on earth."
et fecisti nos Deo nostro regnum, et sacerdotes: et regnabimus super terram.
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;
Et vidi, et audivi vocem Angelorum multorum in circuitu throni, et animalium, et seniorum: et erat numerus eorum millia millium,
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."
dicentium voce magna: Dignus est Agnus, qui occisus est, accipere virtutem, et divinitatem, et sapientiam, et fortitudinem, et honorem, et gloriam, et benedictionem.
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 )
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 )
14 The four living creatures were saying, "Amen." The elders fell down and worshiped.
Et quattuor animalia dicebant: Amen. Et vigintiquattuor seniores ceciderunt in facies suas: et adoraverunt viventem in sæcula sæculorum.
