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.

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.
