Revelation 5:7-14
7And He came and took 1the book out of the right hand of Him who 2sat on the throne. 8When He had taken the 3book, the 4four living creatures and the 5twenty-four elders 6fell down before the 7Lamb, each one holding a 8harp and 9golden bowls full of incense, which are the 10prayers of the 11saints. 9And they sang a 12new song, saying, “13Worthy are You to take the 14book and to break its seals; for You were 15slain, and 16purchased for God with Your blood men from 17every tribe and tongue and people and nation. 10You have made them to be a 18kingdom and 19priests to our God; and they will 20reign upon the earth.”
11Then I looked, and I heard the voice of many angels 21around the throne and the 22living creatures and the 23elders; and the number of them was 24myriads of myriads, and thousands of thousands, 12saying with a loud voice, “25Worthy is the 26Lamb that was 27slain to receive power and riches and wisdom and might and honor and glory and blessing.” 13And 28every 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 29sits on the throne, and to the 30Lamb, 31be blessing and honor and glory and dominion forever and ever.” 14And the 32four living creatures kept saying, “33Amen.” And the 34elders 35fell down and worshiped.
