Revelation 5

1 And I saw on the right hand of Him that sat on the throne a book written within and without, sealed with seven seals:

In v desnici njega, ki je sedèl na prestolu, sem videl knjigo, popisano znotraj in na zadnji strani, zapečateno s sedmimi pečati.

2 and I saw a mighty angel proclaiming with a loud voice, Who is worthy to open the book and to loose the seals of it?

In videl sem krepkega angela razglašati z močnim glasom: »Kdo je vreden, da odpre knjigo in da odtrga njene pečate?«

3 And no one in heaven, nor on earth, nor under the earth, was able to open the book, or to look into it:

In nihče na nebu niti na zemlji niti pod zemljo, ni bil zmožen, da odpre knjigo niti, da pogleda nanjo.

4 and I wept much because no one was found worthy to open and read the book, nor to look into it.

In zelo sem jokal, ker se ni našel nihče vreden, da odpre in da bere knjigo niti, da pogleda nanjo.

5 And one of the elders said to me, Weep not; ---Behold the lion of the tribe of Juda, the root of David, hath prevailed to open the book, and to loose its seven seals.

In eden izmed starešin mi reče: »Ne jokaj; glej, Lev iz Judovega rodu, Davidova Korenina, je prevladal, da odpre knjigo in da razveže njenih sedem pečatov.«

6 And I beheld, and lo, in the midst of the throne, and of the four animals, and in the midst of the elders, stood a Lamb, as it had been slain, having seven horns and seven eyes, which are the seven spirits of God, sent forth into all the earth.

In pogledal sem in glej, na sredini prestola in štirih živali in sredi starešin je stalo Jagnje, kot bi bilo zaklano in je imelo sedem rogov in sedem oči, ki so sedem Božjih Duhov, poslanih po vsej zemlji.

7 And He came and took the book out of the right hand of Him that sat upon the throne.

In prišlo je ter vzelo knjigo iz desnice tistega, ki je sedel na prestolu.

8 And when He had taken the book, the four animals, and the twenty four elders, fell down before the Lamb, having every one harps and golden vials full of perfumes, which are the prayers of the saints.

In ko je vzelo knjigo, so štiri živali in štiriindvajset starešin padli dol pred Jagnjetom in vsi izmed njih so imeli harfe in zlate stekleničke, polne dišav, ki so molitve svetih.

9 And they sung a new song, saying, Worthy art thou 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;

In peli so novo pesem, rekoč: »Vredno si, da vzameš to knjigo in da odpreš njene pečate; kajti bilo si umorjeno in s svojo krvjo si nas odkupilo Bogu izmed vsakega sorodstva in jezika in ljudstva in naroda

10 and hast made us to our God kings and priests: and we shall reign on the earth.

in si nas naredilo [za] kralje in duhovnike pri našemu Bogu, in mi bomo kraljevali na zemlji.«

11 And I beheld, and I heard the voice of many angels round the throne and the animals and the elders: and the number of them was myriads of myriads, and thousands of thousands;

In zagledal sem in zaslišal glas mnogih angelov naokoli prestola in živali in starešin, in njihovo število je bilo desettisočkrat deset tisoč in tisočev tisoči,

12 saying 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.

ki so z močnim glasom govorili: »Vredno je Jagnje, ki je bilo zaklano, da prejme oblast in bogastva in modrost in moč in čast in slavo in blagoslov.«

13 And I heard every creature in heaven, and on earth, and under the earth, and on the sea, and all that are in them, saying, Blessing, and honor, and glory, and power be unto Him that sitteth upon the throne, and to the Lamb, for ever and ever. (aiōn g165)

In vsako ustvarjeno bitje, ki je na nebu in na zemlji in pod zemljo in takšna, kot so v morju in vse, ki so v njem, sem slišal govoriti: »Blagoslov in čast in slava in oblast naj bo njemu, ki sedi na prestolu in Jagnjetu na veke vekov.« (aiōn g165)

14 And the four animals said, Amen: and the twenty four elders fell down and worshipped Him that liveth to endless ages.

In štiri živali so rekle: »Amen.« In štiriindvajset starešin je padlo dol in oboževalo tistega, ki živi na veke vekov.
