Revelation:5
Seeker Overlay ON
*
And I saw in the right hand of him who was seated on the throne a scroll written within and on the back ,
sealed with seven seals ;
*
and I saw a strong angel proclaiming with a loud voice , "
Who is worthy to open the scroll and break its seals ?"
*
And no one in heaven or on earth or under the earth was able to open the scroll or to look into it ,
*
and I wept much that no one was found worthy to open the scroll or to into into it .
*
Then one of the elders said to me , "
Weep not ;
lo ,
the Lion of the tribe of Judah ,
the Root of David ,
has conquered ,
so that he can open the scroll and its seven seals ."
*
And between the throne and the four living creatures and among the elders ,
I saw a Lamb standing ,
as though it had been slain ,
with seven horns and with seven eyes ,
which are the seven spirits of God sent out into all the earth ;
*
and he went and took the scroll from the right hand of him who was seated on the throne .
*
And when he had taken the scroll ,
the four living creatures and the twenty-four elders fell down before the Lamb ,
each holding a harp ,
and with golden bowls full of incense ,
which are the prayers of the saints ;
*
and they sang a new song ,
saying , "
Worthy art thou to take the scroll and to open its seals ,
for thou wast slain and by thy blood didst ransom men for God from every tribe and tongue and people and nation ,
*
and hast made them a kingdom and priests to our God ,
and they shall reign on earth ."
*
Then I looked ,
and I heard around the throne and the living creatures and the elders the voice of many angels ,
numbering myriads of myriads and thousands of thousands ,
*
saying with a loud voice , "
Worthy is the Lamb who was slain ,
to receive power and wealth and wisdom and might and honor and glory and blessing !"
*
And I heard every creature in heaven and on earth and under the earth and in the sea ,
and all therein ,
saying , "
To him who sits upon the throne and to the Lamb be blessing and honor and glory and might for ever and ever !"
*
And the four living creatures said , "
Amen !"
and the elders fell down and worshiped .
