Revelation 5:9–14
9 And they * sang a anew song, saying,
“bWorthy are You to take the 1book and to break its seals; for You were cslain, and dpurchased for God with Your blood men from eevery tribe and tongue and people and nation.
10 “You have made them to be a akingdom and apriests to our God; and they will breign upon the earth.”
11 Then I looked, and I heard the voice of many angels aaround the throne and the bliving creatures and the celders; and the number of them was dmyriads of myriads, and thousands of thousands,
“aWorthy is the bLamb that was bslain to receive power and riches and wisdom and might and honor and glory and blessing.”
13 And aevery created thing which is in heaven and on the earth and under the earth and on the sea, and all things in them, I heard saying,
“To Him who bsits on the throne, and to the cLamb, dbe blessing and honor and glory and dominion forever and ever.”
14 And the afour living creatures kept saying, “bAmen.” And the celders dfell down and worshiped.
| * | A star (*) is used to mark verbs that are historical presents in the Greek which have been translated with an English past tense in order to conform to modern usage. The translators recognized that in some contexts the present tense seems more unexpected and unjustified to the English reader than a past tense would have been. But Greek authors frequently used the present tense for the sake of heightened vividness, thereby transporting their readers in imagination to the actual scene at the time of occurence. However, the translators felt that it would be wise to change these historical presents to English past tenses. |
