Revelation 5:9-12

9And they sang a 1new song, saying, “2Worthy are You to take the 3book and to break its seals; for You were 4slain, and 5purchased for God with Your blood men from 6every tribe and tongue and people and nation. 10You have made them to be a 7kingdom and 8priests to our God; and they will 9reign upon the earth.”

11Then I looked, and I heard the voice of many angels 10around the throne and the 11living creatures and the 12elders; and the number of them was 13myriads of myriads, and thousands of thousands, 12saying with a loud voice, “14Worthy is the 15Lamb that was 16slain to receive power and riches and wisdom and might and honor and glory and blessing.”
