CHAPTER 5

:1  And I saw <G 1492> in the right <G 1188> hand of him that

sat <G 2521> on <G

1909> the throne <G 2362> a book <G 0975> written <G 1125>

within <G 2081> and

on <G 1909> the backside <G 3693>, sealed <G 2696> with seven <G

2033> seals <G

4973>.

:2  And I saw <G 1492> a strong <G 2478> angel <G 0032>

proclaiming <G 2784>

with a loud <G 3173> voice <G 5456>, Who <G 5101> is worthy <G

0514> to open <G

0455> the book <G 0975>, and to loose <G 3089> the seals <G

4973> thereof <G

0846>?

:3  And no <G 3762> man <G 3762> in heaven <G 3772>, nor <G

3761> in earth <G

1093>, neither <G 3761> under <G 5270> the earth <G 1093>, was

able <G 1410> to

open <G 0455> the book <G 0975>, neither <G 3761> to look <G

0991> thereon <G

0846>.

:4  And I wept <G 2799> much <G 4183>, because <G 3754> no <G

3762> man <G 3762>

was found <G 2147> worthy <G 0514> to open <G 0455> and to read

<G 0314> the

book <G 0975>, neither <G 3777> to look <G 0991> thereon <G

0846>.

:5  And one <G 1520> of the elders <G 4245> saith <G 3004> unto

me, Weep <G

2799> not: behold <G 2400>, the Lion <G 3023> of the tribe <G

5443> of Juda <G

2455>, the Root <G 4491> of David <G 1138>, hath prevailed <G

3528> to open <G

0455> the book <G 0975>, and to loose <G 3089> the seven <G

2033> seals <G 4973>

thereof <G 0846>.

:6  And I beheld <G 1492>, and, lo <G 2400>, in the midst <G

3319> of the throne

<G 2362> and of the four <G 5064> beasts <G 2226>, and in the

midst <G 3319> of

the elders <G 4245>, stood <G 2476> a Lamb <G 0721> as it had

been slain <G

4969>, having <G 2192> seven <G 2033> horns <G 2768> and seven

<G 2033> eyes <G

3788>, which <G 3739> are the seven <G 2033> Spirits <G 4151> of

God <G 2316>

sent <G 0649> forth <G 0649> into <G 1519> all <G 3956> the

earth <G 1093>.

:7  And he came <G 2064> and took <G 2983> the book <G 0975> out

of the right <G

1188> hand of him that sat <G 2521> upon the throne <G 2362>.

:8  And when <G 3753> he had taken <G 2983> the book <G 0975>,

the four <G 5064>

beasts <G 2226> and four <G 5064> [and] twenty <G 1501> elders

<G 4245> fell <G

4098> down before <G 1799> the Lamb <G 0721>, having <G 2192>

every <G 1538> one

of them harps <G 2788>, and golden <G 5552> vials <G 5357> full

<G 1073> of

odours <G 2368>, which <G 3739> are the prayers <G 4335> of

saints <G 0040>.

:9  And they sung <G 0103> a new <G 2537> song <G 5603>, saying

<G 3004>, Thou

art <G 1488> worthy <G 0514> to take <G 2983> the book <G 0975>,

and to open <G

0455> the seals <G 4973> thereof <G 0846>: for thou wast slain

<G 4969>, and

hast redeemed <G 0059> us to God <G 2316> by thy blood <G 0129>

out of every <G

3956> kindred <G 5443>, and tongue <G 1100>, and people <G 2992>,

 and nation <G

1484>;

:10  And hast made <G 4160> us unto our God <G 2316> kings <G

0935> and priests

<G 2409>: and we shall reign <G 0936> on <G 1909> the earth <G

1093>.

:11  And I beheld <G 1492>, and I heard <G 0191> the voice <G

5456> of many <G

4183> angels <G 0032> round <G 2943> about <G 2943> the throne

<G 2362> and the

beasts <G 2226> and the elders <G 4245>: and the number <G 0706>

of them was ten

<G 3461> thousand <G 3461> times ten <G 3461> thousand <G 3461>,

and thousands

<G 5505> of thousands <G 5505>;

:12  Saying <G 3004> with a loud <G 3173> voice <G 5456>, Worthy

<G 0514> is the

Lamb <G 0721> that was slain <G 4969> to receive <G 2983> power

<G 1411>, and

riches <G 4149>, and wisdom <G 4678>, and strength <G 2479>, and

honour <G

5092>, and glory <G 1391>, and blessing <G 2129>.

:13  And every <G 3956> creature <G 2938> which <G 3739> is in

heaven <G 3772>,

and on <G 1722> the earth <G 1093>, and under <G 5270> the earth

<G 1093>, and

such as are in the sea <G 2281>, and all <G 3956> that are in

them, heard <G

0191> I saying <G 3004>, Blessing <G 2129>, and honour <G 5092>,

and glory <G

1391>, and power <G 2904>, [be] unto him that sitteth <G 2521>

upon the throne

<G 2362>, and unto the Lamb <G 0721> for ever <G 0165> and ever

<G 0165>.

:14  And the four <G 5064> beasts <G 2226> said <G 3004>, Amen

<G 0281>. And the

four <G 5064> [and] twenty <G 1501> elders <G 4245> fell <G

4098> down and

worshipped <G 4352> him that liveth <G 2198> for ever <G 0165>

and ever <G

0165>.
