1And I saw in the right hand of him who sat on the throne a book written within and on the back, sealed shut with seven seals. 2And I saw a strong angel proclaiming with a great voice, Who is worthy to open the book, and to loose its seals? 3And no one in the heaven, or on the earth, or under the earth, was able to open the book, or to look into it. 4And I wept much, because no one was found worthy to open the book, or to look into it: 5and one of the elders says to me, Do not weep; behold, the Lion that is of the tribe of Judah, the Root of David, has overcome to open the book and its seven seals. 6And 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 forth into all the earth. 7And he came, and he takes it out of the right hand of him who sat on the throne. 8And 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. 9And they sing a new song, saying, Worthy are you to take the book, and to open its seals: for you were slain, and purchased for God with your blood men of every tribe, and tongue, and people, and nation, 10and made them to be to our God a kingdom and priests; and they reign upon the earth. 11And I saw, and I heard a voice of many angels round about the throne and the living creatures and the elders; and the number of them was ten thousand times ten thousand, and thousands of thousands; 12saying with a great voice, Worthy is the Lamb who has been slain to receive the power, and riches, and wisdom, and might, and honor, and glory, and blessing. 13And every created thing which is in the heaven, and on the earth, and under the earth, and on the sea, and all things that are in them, I heard saying, To him who sits on the throne, and to the Lamb, be the blessing, and the honor, and the glory, and the dominion, forever and ever. 14And the four living creatures said, Amen. And the elders fell down and bowed down.
