1 I saw, in the right hand of him who sat on the throne, a book written inside and outside, sealed shut with seven seals. 2 I saw a mighty angel proclaiming with a loud 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 book, or to look in it. 4 And I wept much, because no one was found worthy to open the book, or to look in it. 5 One of the elders said to me, "Don't weep. Behold, the Lion who is of the tribe of Judah, the Root of David, has overcome; he who opens 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. 7 Then he came, and he took it out of the right hand of him who sat on the throne. 8 Now when he had taken the book, 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. 9 They sang a new song, saying,
"You are worthy to take the book,
For you were killed,
10 And made them kings and priests to our God,
11 I saw, and I heard something like a 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; 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!"
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!
14 The four living creatures said, "Amen!" The *2 elders fell down and worshiped.*3
