Revelation 5:5-6
5And one of the elders said to me, “Stop weeping; behold, the 1Lion that is 2from the tribe of Judah, the 3Root of David, has overcome so as to be able to open the scroll and its seven seals.”
6And I saw 4between the throne (with the four living creatures) and 5the elders a 6Lamb standing, as if 7slaughtered, having seven 8horns and 9seven eyes, which are 1011the seven spirits of God sent out into all the earth.
