Then I saw in the right hand of the one seated on the throne a scroll with writing on both sides, sealed with seven seals.

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.

And I saw a mighty angel proclaiming in a loud voice, "Who is worthy to open the scroll and break its seals?"

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

But no one in heaven or on earth or under the earth was able to open the scroll or even to look at it.

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

And I wept bitterly because no one was found worthy to open the scroll or to look at it.

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

Then one of the elders said to me, "Do not weep! Look, the Lion of the tribe of Judah, the Root of David, has triumphed and is able to open the scroll and its seven seals."

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

Then I saw a Lamb, standing as though it had been slain, in the midst of the throne and the four living creatures and among the elders. It had seven horns and seven eyes, which are the seven Spirits of God sent out into all the earth.

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 of God sent forth into all the earth.

The Lamb came and took the scroll from the right hand of the one seated on the throne.

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

When he had taken the scroll, the four living creatures and the twenty-four elders fell down before the Lamb. Each of them was holding a harp and golden bowls full of incense, which are the prayers of the saints.

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.

And they sang a new song, saying: "You are worthy to take the scroll and to open its seals because you were slain, and with your blood, you purchased for God people from every tribe, language, people, and nation."

And they sung a new song, saying, Thou art worthy to take the book, and to open the seals thereof: for thou wast slain, and hast redeemed us to God by thy blood out of every kindred, and tongue, and people, and nation;

You have made them to be a kingdom and priests to serve our God, and they will reign on the earth.

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

Then I looked and heard the voice of many angels surrounding the throne, the living creatures, and the elders. Their number was myriads of myriads and thousands of thousands.

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;

In a loud voice they said: "Worthy is the Lamb who was slain to receive power, and wealth, and wisdom, and strength, and honor, and glory, and blessing!"

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.

Then I heard every creature in heaven, on earth, under the earth, and on the sea, and everything in them, saying, "To the one seated on the throne and to the Lamb be blessing, honor, glory, and power forever and ever!"

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 sitteth upon the throne, and unto the Lamb for ever and ever.

The four living creatures said, "Amen," and the twenty-four elders fell down and worshiped the one who lives forever and ever.

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