The Revelation to Yochanan, Chapter 5
{5:1} I saw, in the right hand of him who sat on the throne, a book
written inside and outside, sealed shut with seven seals. {5:2} I saw
a mighty angel proclaiming with a loud voice, "Who is worthy to open
the book, and to break its seals?" {5:3} No one in heaven above, or on
the [1>]eretz[<1], or under the [2>]eretz[<2], was able to open the
book, or to look in it. {5:4} And I wept much, because no one was
found worthy to open the book, or to look in it. {5:5} One of the
Zakenim said to me, "Don't weep. Behold, the Lion who is of the tribe
of Yehudah, the Root of David, has overcome; he who opens the book and
its seven seals." {5:6} I saw in the midst of the throne and of the
four living creatures, and in the midst of the Zakenim, a Lamb
standing, as though it had been slain, having seven horns, and seven
eyes, which are the seven Spirits of God, sent out into all the
[3>]eretz[<3]. {5:7} Then he came, and he took it out of the right
hand of him who sat on the throne. {5:8} Now when he had taken the
book, the four living creatures and the twenty-four Zakenim fell down
before the Lamb, each one having a harp, and golden bowls full of
incense, which are the prayers of the holy ones. {5:9} They sang a new
song, saying,
"You are worthy to take the book,
And to open its seals:
For you were killed,
And bought us for God with your blood,
Out of every tribe, language, people, and nation,
{5:10} And made them kings and [4>]Kohanim[<4] to our God,
And they reign on [5>]eretz[<5]."
{5:11} I saw, and I heard something like a voice of many angels
around the throne, the living creatures, and the Zakenim; and the
number of them was ten thousands of ten thousands, and thousands of
thousands; {5:12} saying with a loud voice, "Worthy is the Lamb who
has been killed to receive the power, riches, wisdom, might, honor,
glory, and blessing!"
{5:13} I heard every created thing which is in heaven, on the
[6>]eretz[<6], under the [7>]eretz[<7], on the sea, and everything in
them, saying, "To him who sits on the throne, and to the Lamb be the
blessing, the honor, the glory, and the dominion, forever and ever!
Amein."
{5:14} The four living creatures said, "Amein!" The Zakenim fell
down and worshiped.
