Revelation 5

1AndG2532 I sawG3708 inG1909 the right handG1188 of himG3588 that satG2521 onG1909 the throneG3588G2362 a bookG975 writtenG1125 withinG2081 andG2532 on the backsideG3693, sealedG2696 with sevenG2033 sealsG4973. 2AndG2532 I sawG3708 a strongG2478 angelG32 proclaimingG2784 with a loudG3173 voiceG5456, WhoG5101 isG1510 worthyG514 to openG455 the bookG3588G975, andG2532 to looseG3089 the sealsG3588G4973 thereofG846? 3AndG2532 no manG3762 inG1722 heavenG3588G3772, norG3761 inG1909 earthG3588G1093, neitherG3761 underG5270 the earthG3588G1093, was ableG1410 to openG455 the bookG3588G975, neitherG3761 to lookG991 thereonG846.

4AndG2532 IG1473 weptG2799 muchG4183, becauseG3754 no manG3762 was foundG2147 worthyG514 to openG455 andG2532 to readG314 the bookG3588G975, neitherG3777 to lookG991 thereonG846. 5AndG2532 oneG1520 ofG1537 the eldersG3588G4245 saithG3004 unto meG1473, WeepG2799 notG3361: beholdG3708, the LionG3588G3023 ofG1537 the tribeG3588G5443 of JudahG2448, the RootG3588G4491 of DavidG1138, hath prevailedG3528 to openG455 the bookG3588G975, andG2532 to looseG3089 theG3588G4973 sevenG2033 sealsG3588G4973 thereofG846.

6AndG2532 I beheldG3708, andG2532, loG3708, inG1722 the midstG3319 of the throneG3588G2362 andG2532 of the fourG3588G5064 beastsG2226, andG2532 inG1722 the midstG3319 of the eldersG3588G4245, stoodG2476 a LambG721 asG5613 it had been slainG4969, havingG2192 sevenG2033 hornsG2768 andG2532 sevenG2033 eyesG3788, whichG3739 areG1510 theG3588G4151 sevenG2033 SpiritsG3588G4151 of GodG3588G2316 sent forthG3588G649 intoG1519 allG3956 the earthG3588G1093. 7AndG2532 he cameG2064 andG2532 tookG2983 the bookG3588G975 out ofG1537 the right handG1188 of himG3588 that satG2521 uponG1909 the throneG3588G2362.

8AndG2532 whenG3753 he had takenG2983 the bookG3588G975, theG3588G2226 fourG5064 beastsG3588G2226 andG2532 fourG1501 and twentyG1501 eldersG3588G4245 fell downG4098 beforeG1799 the LambG3588G721, havingG2192 every one of themG1538 harpsG2788, andG2532 goldenG5552 vialsG5357 fullG1073 of odoursG2368, whichG3739 areG1510 the prayersG3588G4335 of saintsG3588G40. 9AndG2532 they sungG103 a newG2537 songG5603, sayingG3004, Thou artG1510 worthyG514 to takeG2983 the bookG3588G975, andG2532 to openG455 the sealsG3588G4973 thereofG846: forG3754 thou wast slainG4969, andG2532 hast redeemedG59 usG1473 to GodG3588G2316 byG1722 thyG4771 bloodG3588G129 outG1537 of everyG3956 kindredG5443, andG2532 tongueG1100, andG2532 peopleG2992, andG2532 nationG1484; 10AndG2532 hast madeG4160 usG1473 unto ourG1473 GodG3588G2316 kingsG935 andG2532 priestsG2409: andG2532 we shall reignG936 onG1909 the earthG3588G1093.

11AndG2532 I beheldG3708, andG2532 I heardG191 the voiceG5456 of manyG4183 angelsG32 round aboutG2943 the throneG3588G2362 andG2532 the beastsG3588G2226 andG2532 the eldersG3588G4245: andG2532 the numberG3588G706 of themG846 wasG1510 ten thousand timesG3461 ten thousandG3461, andG2532 thousandsG5505 of thousandsG5505; 12SayingG3004 with a loudG3173 voiceG5456, WorthyG514 isG1510 the LambG3588G721 that was slainG4969 to receiveG2983 powerG3588G1411, andG2532 richesG4149, andG2532 wisdomG4678, andG2532 strengthG2479, andG2532 honourG5092, andG2532 gloryG1391, andG2532 blessingG2129. 13AndG2532 everyG3956 creatureG2938 whichG3739 isG1510 inG1722 heavenG3588G3772, andG2532 onG1722 the earthG3588G1093, andG2532 underG5270 the earthG3588G1093, andG2532 such asG3739 areG1510 inG1909 the seaG3588G2281, andG2532 allG3956 that are inG1722 themG846, heard IG191 sayingG3004, BlessingG3588G2129, andG2532 honourG3588G5092, andG2532 gloryG3588G1391, andG2532 powerG3588G2904, be unto himG3588 that sittethG2521 uponG1909 the throneG3588G2362, andG2532 unto the LambG3588G721 forG1519 everG3588G165 and everG3588G165. 14AndG2532 theG3588G2226 fourG5064 beastsG3588G2226 saidG3004, AmenG281. AndG2532 theG3588G4245 fourG1501 and twentyG1501 eldersG3588G4245 fell downG4098 andG2532 worshippedG4352 him that livethG2198 forG1519 everG3588G165 and everG3588G165.
