NASB Bible

Revelation 5

The Book with Seven Seals

1

I saw  1in the right hand of Him who  asat on the throne a  2 bbook written inside and on the back,  csealed up with seven seals.

2

And I saw a  astrong angel proclaiming with a loud voice, "Who is worthy to open the  1book and to break its seals?"

3

And no one  ain heaven or on the earth or under the earth was able to open the  1book or to look into it.

4

Then I began to weep greatly because no one was found worthy to open the  1book or to look into it;

5

and one of the elders *said to me, "Stop weeping; behold, the  aLion that is  bfrom the tribe of Judah, the  cRoot of David, has overcome so as to open the  1book and its seven seals."

6

And I saw  1between the throne (with the four living creatures) and  athe elders a  bLamb standing, as if  cslain, having seven  dhorns and  eseven eyes, which are  fthe seven Spirits of God, sent out into all the earth.

7

And He came and took  athe book out of the right hand of Him who  asat on the throne.

8

When He had taken the  1book, the  afour living creatures and the  btwenty-four elders  cfell down before the  dLamb, each one holding a  eharp and  fgolden bowls full of incense, which are the  gprayers of the  2saints.

9

And they *sang a  anew song, saying, " bWorthy are You to take the  1book and to break its seals; for You were  cslain, and  dpurchased for God with Your blood men from  eevery tribe and tongue and people and nation.

10

"You have made them to be a  akingdom and  apriests to our God; and they will  breign upon the earth."

Angels Exalt the Lamb

11

Then I looked, and I heard the voice of many angels  aaround the throne and the  bliving creatures and the  celders; and the number of them was  dmyriads of myriads, and thousands of thousands,

12

saying with a loud voice, " aWorthy is the  bLamb that was  bslain to receive power and riches and wisdom and might and honor and glory and blessing."

13

And  aevery created thing which is in heaven and on the earth and under the earth and on the sea, and all things in them, I heard saying, "To Him who  bsits on the throne, and to the  cLamb,  dbe blessing and honor and glory and dominion forever and ever."

14

And the  afour living creatures kept saying, " bAmen." And the  celders  dfell down and worshiped.
