And they sing a new song, saying, Worthy art thou to take the book, and to open its seals: for thou wert slain, and didst purchase us to God by thy blood from every tribe, and tongue, and people, and nation;

And I saw upon the right hand of him sitting upon the throne, a book written within and behind, sealed with seven seals.

And madest us kings and priests to our God: and we shall reign upon the earth.

And one of the elders says to me, Weep not: behold, the Lion conquered, he being of the tribe of Judah, the Root of David, to open the book, and to loose its seven seals.

And I saw, and heard the voice of many angels round about the throne and the living creatures and the elders: and their number was myriads of myriads, and thousands of thousands;

And when he took the book, the four living creatures and the twentyfour elders fell before the Lamb, having each harps, and golden bowls full of incenses, which are the prayers of the holy.

And he came and took the book from the right hand of him sitting upon the throne.

And the four living creatures said, Amen. And the twentyfour elders fell and worshipped him living for the times of times.

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

And none was able in heaven, nor upon earth, nor under the earth, to open the book, nor to look upon it.

And I wept much, that none was found worthy to open and to read the hook, neither to look upon it.

And I saw, and, behold, in the midst of the throne and of the four living creatures, and in the midst of the elders, a Lamb standing as having been slain, having seven horns and seven eyes, which are the seven Spirits of God sent into all the earth.

Saying with a great voice, Worthy is the Lamb slain to receive power, and riches, and wisdom, and strength, and honour, and glory, and praise.

And every creature which is in heaven, and in earth, and under the earth, and upon the sea, which are, and all things in them, heard I saying, To him sitting upon the throne, and to the Lamb, praise, and honour, and glory, and strength, for the times of times.
