Revelation 5:8-9

8When He had taken the scroll, the 1four living creatures and the 2twenty-four elders 3fell down before the 4Lamb, each one holding a 5harp and 6golden bowls full of incense, which are the 7prayers of the 8saints.

9And they sang a 9new song, saying, “10Worthy are You to take the scroll and to break its seals; for You were 11slaughtered, and You 12purchased people for God with Your blood from 13every tribe, language, people, and nation.
