Revelation 5:9-13

9The beings that are alive and the leaders sang a new song. They sang: ‘You are so good! You are good enough to take the book. You can break its seals and open it. You can do this because they killed you. When you died, you bought people for God with your blood. You bought them from every tribe, from every language and every nation.

10You have caused them to belong to the kingdom of our God. You have made them priests, so that they serve God. And they will rule on the earth.’

11Then I looked again, and I heard the voices of many angels. There were thousands and millions of them. They were standing around the throne, with the beings that are alive and the leaders.

12They all sang with loud voices: ‘The Lamb that people killed is completely good! He has all authority, and all things belong to him. He is wise and powerful. Everyone must agree that he is great! Everyone must praise him and worship him!’

13Then I heard everything that is alive singing. That was everything in heaven and everything on the earth, and everything under the earth and everything in the sea. They were singing: ‘We praise the one who sits on the throne. We praise the one who is the Lamb. We say that they are great! We worship them! They have power to rule for ever!’
