Revelation 5:6–14

⁶Then I saw one like a slaughtered lamb^q standing in the midst of the throne and the four living creatures and among the elders. He had seven horns and seven eyes, which are the seven spirits of God^r sent into all the earth. ⁷He went and took the scroll out of the right hand of the one seated on the throne.

THE LAMB IS WORTHY

⁸When he took the scroll, the four living creatures and the twenty-four elders fell down before the Lamb. Each one had a harp^s and golden bowls^t filled with incense,^u which are the prayers of the saints. ⁹And they sang a new song:^v

You are worthy to take the scroll

and to open its seals,

because you were slaughtered,

and you purchased^A people^B

for God by your blood

from every tribe and language

and people and nation.^w

¹⁰You made them a kingdom^C

and priests to our God,^x

and they will reign on the earth.

¹¹Then I looked and heard the voice of many angels around the throne, and also of the living creatures and of the elders. Their number was countless thousands, plus thousands of thousands.^{y 12}They said with a loud voice,

Worthy is the Lamb who was slaughtered

to receive power and riches

and wisdom and strength

and honor and glory and blessing!

¹³I heard every creature in heaven, on earth, under the earth,^z on the sea, and everything in them say,^aa

Blessing and honor and glory and power

be to the one seated on the throne,

and to the Lamb, forever and ever!

¹⁴The four living creatures said, “Amen,” and the elders fell down and worshiped.
