Revelation 5:4-6
New American Standard Bible
4 Then I began to weep greatly because no one was found worthy to open the scroll or to look into it. 5 And one of the elders *said to me, “Stop weeping; behold, the (A)Lion that is (B)from the tribe of Judah, the (C)Root of David, has overcome so as to be able to open the scroll and its seven seals.”
6 And I saw [a]between the throne (with the four living creatures) and (D)the elders a (E)Lamb standing, as if (F)slaughtered, having seven (G)horns and (H)seven eyes, which are [b](I)the seven spirits of God sent out into all the earth.

Revelation 5:4-6
New International Version
4 I wept and wept because no one was found who was worthy to open the scroll or look inside. 5 Then one of the elders said to me, “Do not weep! See, the Lion(A) of the tribe of Judah,(B) the Root of David,(C) has triumphed. He is able to open the scroll and its seven seals.”
6 Then I saw a Lamb,(D) looking as if it had been slain, standing at the center of the throne, encircled by the four living creatures(E) and the elders.(F) The Lamb had seven horns and seven eyes,(G) which are the seven spirits[a](H) of God sent out into all the earth.
