Revelation 5:5-7
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. 7And He came and took 12the scroll out of the right hand of Him who 13sat on the throne.
