Αποκαλυψις Ιωαννου 5

1 και ειδον επι την δεξιαν του καθημενου επι του θρονου βιβλιον γεγραμμενον εσωθεν και εξωθεν κατεσφραγισμενον σφραγισιν επτα

And I saw in the right hand of him that sat on the throne a book written within and on the backside, sealed with seven seals.

2 και ειδον αγγελον ισχυρον κηρυσσοντα εν φωνη μεγαλη τις αξιος εστιν ανοιξαι το βιβλιον και λυσαι τας σφραγιδας αυτου

And I saw a strong angel proclaiming with a loud voice, Who is worthy to open the book, and to loose the seals thereof?

3 και ουδεις εδυνατο εν τω ουρανω ουτε επι της γης ουτε υποκατω της γης ανοιξαι το βιβλιον ουτε βλεπειν αυτο

And no man in heaven, nor in earth, neither under the earth, was able to open the book, neither to look thereon.

4 και εγω εκλαιον πολυ οτι ουδεις αξιος ευρεθη ανοιξαι το βιβλιον ουτε βλεπειν αυτο

And I wept much, because no man was found worthy to open and to read the book, neither to look thereon.

5 και εις εκ των πρεσβυτερων λεγει μοι μη κλαιε ιδου ενικησεν ο λεων ο εκ της φυλης ιουδα η ριζα δαυιδ ανοιξαι το βιβλιον και τας επτα σφραγιδας αυτου

And one of the elders says unto me, Weep not: behold, the Lion of the tribe of Juda, the Root of David, has prevailed to open the book, and to loose the seven seals thereof.

6 και ειδον εν μεσω του θρονου και των τεσσαρων ζωων και εν μεσω των πρεσβυτερων αρνιον εστηκος ως εσφαγμενον εχον κερατα επτα και οφθαλμους επτα α εισιν τα επτα πνευματα του θεου αποστελλομενα εις πασαν την γην

And I beheld, and, lo, in the midst of the throne and of the four beasts, 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 (pneuma) of God sent forth into all the earth.

7 και ηλθεν και ειληφεν εκ της δεξιας του καθημενου επι του θρονου

And he came and took the book out of the right hand of him that sat upon the throne.

8 και οτε ελαβεν το βιβλιον τα τεσσαρα ζωα και οι εικοσι τεσσαρες πρεσβυτεροι επεσαν ενωπιον του αρνιου εχοντες εκαστος κιθαραν και φιαλας χρυσας γεμουσας θυμιαματων αι εισιν αι προσευχαι των αγιων

And when he had taken the book, the four beasts and four and twenty elders fell down before the Lamb, having every one of them harps, and golden vials full of odours, which are the prayers of saints.

9 και αδουσιν ωδην καινην λεγοντες αξιος ει λαβειν το βιβλιον και ανοιξαι τας σφραγιδας αυτου οτι εσφαγης και ηγορασας τω θεω ημας εν τω αιματι σου εκ πασης φυλης και γλωσσης και λαου και εθνους

And they sung a new song, saying, You are worthy to take the book, and to open the seals thereof: for you were slain, and have redeemed us to God by your blood out of every kindred, and tongue, and people, and nation;

10 και εποιησας αυτους τω θεω ημων βασιλεις και ιερεις και βασιλευσουσιν επι της γης

And have made us unto our God kings and priests: and we shall reign on the earth.

11 και ειδον και ηκουσα [ ως ] φωνην αγγελων πολλων κυκλω του θρονου και των ζωων και των πρεσβυτερων και ην ο αριθμος αυτων μυριαδες μυριαδων και χιλιαδες χιλιαδων

And I beheld, and I heard the voice of many angels round about the throne and the beasts and the elders: and the number of them was ten thousand times ten thousand, and thousands of thousands;

12 λεγοντες φωνη μεγαλη αξιον εστιν το αρνιον το εσφαγμενον λαβειν την δυναμιν και [ τον ] πλουτον και σοφιαν και ισχυν και τιμην και δοξαν και ευλογιαν

Saying with a loud voice, Worthy is the Lamb that was slain to receive power, and riches, and wisdom, and strength, and honour, and glory, and blessing.

13 και παν κτισμα ο εν τω ουρανω και επι της γης και υποκατω της γης και επι της θαλασσης εστιν και τα εν αυτοις παντα ηκουσα λεγοντας τω καθημενω επι του θρονου και τω αρνιω η ευλογια και η τιμη και η δοξα και το κρατος εις τους αιωνας των αιωνων (aiōn g165)

And every creature which is in heaven, and on the earth, and under the earth, and such as are in the sea, and all that are in them, heard I saying, Blessing, and honour, and glory, and power, be unto him that sits upon the throne, and unto the Lamb for ever and ever. (aiōn g165)

14 και τα τεσσαρα ζωα ελεγον αμην και οι πρεσβυτεροι επεσαν και προσεκυνησαν

And the four beasts said, Amen. And the four and twenty elders fell down and worshipped him that lives for ever and ever.
