1. I saw a book in the right hand of the One Who sat on the a throne. It had writing on the inside and on the back side. It was locked with seven locks.
|
1. And G2532 I saw G1492 in G1909 the G3588 right hand G1188 of him that sat G2521 on G1909 the G3588 throne G2362 a book G975 written G1125 within G2081 and G2532 on the backside G3693 , sealed G2696 with seven G2033 seals G4973 .
|
|
2. I saw a powerful angel calling with a loud voice, "Who is able to open the book and to break its locks?"
|
2. And G2532 I saw G1492 a strong G2478 angel G32 proclaiming G2784 with a loud G3173 voice G5456 , Who G5101 is G2076 worthy G514 to open G455 the G3588 book G975 , and G2532 to loose G3089 the G3588 seals G4973 thereof G848 ?
|
|
3. No one in heaven or on the earth or under the earth was able to open the book or to look in it.
|
3. And G2532 no man G3762 in G1722 heaven G3772 , nor G3761 in G1909 earth G1093 , neither G3761 under G5270 the G3588 earth G1093 , was able G1410 to open G455 the G3588 book G975 , neither G3761 to look G991 thereon G846 .
|
|
4. Then I began to cry with loud cries. I cried because no one was good enough to open the book or to look in it.
|
4. And G2532 I G1473 wept G2799 much G4183 , because G3754 no man G3762 was found G2147 worthy G514 to open G455 and G2532 to read G314 the G3588 book G975 , neither G3777 to look G991 thereon G846 .
|
|
5. One of the leaders said to me, "Stop crying. See! The Lion from the family group of Judah has power and has won. He can open the book and break its seven locks. He is of the family of David."
|
5. And G2532 one G1520 of G1537 the G3588 elders G4245 saith G3004 unto me G3427 , Weep G2799 not G3361 : behold G2400 , the G3588 Lion G3023 G5607 of G1537 the G3588 tribe G5443 of Judah G2455 , the G3588 Root G4491 of David G1138 , hath prevailed G3528 to open G455 the G3588 book G975 , and G2532 to loose G3089 the G3588 seven G2033 seals G4973 thereof G848 .
|
|
6. I saw a Lamb standing in front of the twenty-four leaders. He was before the throne and in front of the four living beings. He looked as if He had been killed. He had seven horns and seven eyes. These are the seven Spirits of God. They have been sent out into all the world.
|
6. And G2532 I beheld G1492 , and G2532 , lo G2400 , in G1722 the midst G3319 of the G3588 throne G2362 and G2532 of the G3588 four G5064 beasts G2226 , and G2532 in G1722 the midst G3319 of the G3588 elders G4245 , stood G2476 a Lamb G721 as G5613 it had been slain G4969 , having G2192 seven G2033 horns G2768 and G2532 seven G2033 eyes G3788 , which G3739 are G1526 the G3588 seven G2033 Spirits G4151 of God G2316 sent forth G649 into G1519 all G3956 the G3588 earth G1093 .
|
|
7. The Lamb came and took the book from the right hand of the One Who sat on the throne.
|
7. And G2532 he came G2064 and G2532 took G2983 the G3588 book G975 out of G1537 the G3588 right hand G1188 of him that sat G2521 upon G1909 the G3588 throne G2362 .
|
|
8. When the Lamb had taken the book, the four living beings and the twenty-four leaders got down before Him. Each one had a harp. They all had pots made of gold, full of special perfume, which are the prayers of the people who belong to God.
|
8. And G2532 when G3753 he had taken G2983 the G3588 book G975 , the G3588 four G5064 beasts G2226 and G2532 four and twenty G1501 G5064 elders G4245 fell down G4098 before G1799 the G3588 Lamb G721 , having G2192 every one of them G1538 harps G2788 , and G2532 golden G5552 vials G5357 full G1073 of odors G2368 , which G3739 are G1526 the G3588 prayers G4335 of saints G40 .
|
|
9. They sang a new song, saying, "It is right for You to take the book and break its locks. It is because You were killed. Your blood has bought men for God from every family and from every language and from every kind of people and from every nation.
|
9. And G2532 they sung G103 a new G2537 song G5603 , saying G3004 , Thou art G1488 worthy G514 to take G2983 the G3588 book G975 , and G2532 to open G455 the G3588 seals G4973 thereof G848 : for G3754 thou wast slain G4969 , and G2532 hast redeemed G59 us G2248 to God G2316 by G1722 thy G4675 blood G129 out of G1537 every G3956 kindred G5443 , and G2532 tongue G1100 , and G2532 people G2992 , and G2532 nation G1484 ;
|
|
10. You have made them to be a holy nation of religious leaders to work for our God. They will be the leaders on the earth."
|
10. And G2532 hast made G4160 us G2248 unto our G2257 God G2316 kings G935 and G2532 priests G2409 : and G2532 we shall reign G936 on G1909 the G3588 earth G1093 .
|
|
11. I looked again. I heard the voices of many thousands of angels. They stood around the throne and around the four living beings and the leaders.
|
11. And G2532 I beheld G1492 , and G2532 I heard G191 the voice G5456 of many G4183 angels G32 round about G2943 the G3588 throne G2362 and G2532 the G3588 beasts G2226 and G2532 the G3588 elders G4245 : and G2532 the G3588 number G706 of them G846 was G2258 ten thousand times ten thousand G3461 G3461 , and G2532 thousands of thousands G5505 G5505 ;
|
|
12. They said with a loud voice, "The Lamb Who was killed has the right to receive power and riches and wisdom and strength and honor and shining-greatness and thanks."
|
12. Saying G3004 with a loud G3173 voice G5456 , Worthy G514 is G2076 the G3588 Lamb G721 that was slain G4969 to receive G2983 power G1411 , and G2532 riches G4149 , and G2532 wisdom G4678 , and G2532 strength G2479 , and G2532 honor G5092 , and G2532 glory G1391 , and G2532 blessing G2129 .
|
|
13. Then I heard every living thing in heaven and on the earth and under the earth and in the sea and all that are in them. They were saying, "Thanks and honor and shining-greatness and all power are to the One Who sits on the throne and to the Lamb forever."
|
13. And G2532 every G3956 creature G2938 which G3739 is G2076 in G1722 heaven G3772 , and G2532 on G1722 the G3588 earth G1093 , and G2532 under G5270 the G3588 earth G1093 , and G2532 such as G3739 are G2076 in G1909 the G3588 sea G2281 , and G2532 all G3956 that G3588 are in G1722 them G846 , heard G191 I saying G3004 , Blessing G2129 , and G2532 honor G5092 , and G2532 glory G1391 , and G2532 power G2904 , be unto him that sitteth G2521 upon G1909 the G3588 throne G2362 , and G2532 unto the G3588 Lamb G721 forever and ever G1519 G165 G165 .
|
|
14. The four living beings kept saying, "Let it be so!" And the twenty-four leaders fell down and worshiped.
|
14. And G2532 the G3588 four G5064 beasts G2226 said G3004 , Amen G281 . And G2532 the G3588 four and twenty G1501 G5064 elders G4245 fell down G4098 and G2532 worshipped G4352 him that liveth G2198 forever and ever G1519 G165 G165 .
