King James Version
Then
I saw a
scroll
in the right hand of the
One
seated
on the throne .
It
had
writing
on
both
sides
and was
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 break
the seals
and open
the scroll
? ”
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
look inside
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 began
to
weep
bitterly
, because no one
was found worthy to open the scroll
or
look inside
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 !
Behold, the Lion of the tribe of Judah
, the Root of David, has
triumphed
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
who
appeared
to
have
been
slain
, standing
in the center
of the throne ,
encircled
by
the four living
creatures
and the elders.
The Lamb had seven horns and seven eyes, which represent
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.
And He 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
one had
a
harp
, and they
were
holding
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 :
“
Worthy are
You
to take the scroll
and open its
seals ,
because
You
were
slain, and by Your
blood You
purchased
for
God
those
from
every tribe
and tongue and 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 upon
the earth. ”
And hast
made
us
unto
our God kings
and priests:
and
we
shall
reign on
the earth.
Then
I looked
, and I heard the voices
of many angels and living
creatures
and elders
encircling
the throne,
and 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
were
saying:
“
Worthy is the Lamb ,
who
was slain ,
to receive power and riches 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 .
And I
heard
every creature in heaven and on earth and under the earth and in the sea, and all that is
in them, saying :
“To
Him who
sits
on
the throne and to
the Lamb be
praise
and
honor
and
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 .
And the four living
creatures
said, “
Amen ,”
and the elders fell down and worshiped
.
And the four beasts
said, Amen .
And the four
and
twenty
elders fell down and worshipped
him
that
liveth
for
ever
and
ever
.
