And I saw a mighty angel proclaiming in a loud voice, “Who is worthy to break the seals and open the scroll?”

But no one in heaven or on earth or under the earth could open the scroll or even look inside it.
And no one in heaven or on earth or under the earth was able to open the scroll or to look into it,
I wept and wept because no one was found who was worthy to open the scroll or look inside.
and I began to weep loudly because no one was found worthy to open the scroll or to look into it.
Then one of the elders said to me, “Do not weep! See, the Lion of the tribe of Judah, the Root of David, has triumphed. He is able to open the scroll and its seven seals.”
And one of the elders said to me, “Weep no more; behold, 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.
He went and took the scroll from the right hand of him who sat on the throne.
And he went and took the scroll from the right hand of him who was seated on the throne.

and to open its seals,
because you were slain,
and with your blood you purchased for God
persons from every tribe and language and people and nation.

and to open its seals,
for you were slain, and by your blood you ransomed people for God
from every tribe and language and people and nation,
and you have made them a kingdom and priests to our God,
and they shall reign on the earth.”

Then I looked and heard the voice of many angels, numbering thousands upon thousands, and ten thousand times ten thousand. They encircled the throne and the living creatures and the elders.
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,

“Worthy is the Lamb, who was slain,
to receive power and wealth and wisdom and strength
and honor and glory and praise!”

and honor and glory and blessing!”

to receive power and wealth and wisdom and might
and honor and glory and blessing!”

“To him who sits on the throne and to the Lamb
be praise and honor and glory and power,
for ever and ever!”
“To him who sits on the throne and to the Lamb
be praise and honor and glory and power,
for ever and ever!”

“To him who sits on the throne and to the Lamb
be blessing and honor and glory and might forever and ever!”
“To him who sits on the throne and to the Lamb
be blessing and honor and glory and might forever and ever!”
