Revelation 5:6-10
6And I saw 1between the throne (with the four living creatures) and 2the elders a 3Lamb standing, as if 4slain, having seven 5horns and 6seven eyes, which are 7the seven Spirits of God, sent out into all the earth. 7And He came and took 8the book out of the right hand of Him who 9sat on the throne. 8When He had taken the 10book, the 11four living creatures and the 12twenty-four elders 13fell down before the 14Lamb, each one holding a 15harp and 16golden bowls full of incense, which are the 17prayers of the 18saints. 9And they sang a 19new song, saying, “20Worthy are You to take the 21book and to break its seals; for You were 22slain, and 23purchased for God with Your blood men from 24every tribe and tongue and people and nation. 10You have made them to be a 25kingdom and 26priests to our God; and they will 27reign upon the earth.”
