Berean Standard Bible

Revelation 5:8-14

8When He had taken the scroll, the four living creatures and the twenty-four elders fell down before the Lamb. Each one had a harp, and they were holding golden bowls full of incense, which are the prayers of the saints. 9And they sang a new song:

“Worthy are You to take the scroll and open its seals,because You were slain,and by Your blood You purchased for Godthose from every tribe and tongue and people and nation.10You have made them to be a kingdomand priests to serve our God,and they will reign upon1 the earth.”

11Then I looked, and I heard the voices of many angels encircling the throne, and the living creatures and the elders. And their number was myriads of myriads and thousands of thousands. 12In a loud voice they were saying:

“Worthy is the Lamb who was slain,to receive power and richesand wisdom and strengthand honor and glory and blessing!”

13And I heard every creature in heaven and on earth and under the earth and in the sea, and all that is in them, saying:

“To Him who sits on the throneand to the Lambbe praise and honor and glory and powerforever and ever!”

14And the four living creatures said, “Amen,” and the elders fell down and worshiped.2
