Revelation 5:6-14
Revised Standard Version
6 And between the throne and the four living creatures and among the elders, I saw a Lamb standing, as though it had been slain, with seven horns and with seven eyes, which are the seven spirits of God sent out into all the earth; 7 and he went and took the scroll from the right hand of him who was seated on the throne. 8 And when he had taken the scroll, the four living creatures and the twenty-four elders fell down before the Lamb, each holding a harp, and with golden bowls full of incense, which are the prayers of the saints; 9 and they sang a new song, saying,
“Worthy art thou to take the scroll and to open its seals,
for thou wast slain and by thy blood didst ransom men for God
from every tribe and tongue and people and nation,
10 and hast made them a kingdom and priests to our God,
and they shall reign on earth.”
11 Then I looked, and I heard around the throne and the living creatures and the elders the voice of many angels, numbering myriads of myriads and thousands of thousands, 12 saying with a loud voice, “Worthy is the Lamb who was slain, to receive power and wealth and wisdom and might and honor and glory and blessing!” 13 And I heard every creature in heaven and on earth and under the earth and in the sea, and all therein, saying, “To him who sits upon the throne and to the Lamb be blessing and honor and glory and might for ever and ever!” 14 And the four living creatures said, “Amen!” and the elders fell down and worshiped.

6 Then I saw a Lamb,(A) looking as if it had been slain, standing at the center of the throne, encircled by the four living creatures(B) and the elders.(C) The Lamb had seven horns and seven eyes,(D) which are the seven spirits[a](E) of God sent out into all the earth. 7 He went and took the scroll from the right hand of him who sat on the throne.(F) 8 And when he had taken it, the four living creatures(G) and the twenty-four elders(H) fell down before the Lamb. Each one had a harp(I) and they were holding golden bowls full of incense, which are the prayers(J) of God’s people. 9 And they sang a new song, saying:(K)
“You are worthy(L) to take the scroll
and to open its seals,
because you were slain,
and with your blood(M) you purchased(N) for God
persons from every tribe and language and people and nation.(O)
10 You have made them to be a kingdom and priests(P) to serve our God,
and they will reign[b] on the earth.”(Q)
11 Then I looked and heard the voice of many angels, numbering thousands upon thousands, and ten thousand times ten thousand.(R) They encircled the throne and the living creatures(S) and the elders.(T) 12 In a loud voice they were saying:
“Worthy is the Lamb,(U) who was slain,(V)
to receive power and wealth and wisdom and strength
and honor and glory and praise!”(W)
13 Then I heard every creature in heaven and on earth and under the earth(X) and on the sea, and all that is in them, saying:
“To him who sits on the throne(Y) and to the Lamb(Z)
be praise and honor and glory and power,
for ever and ever!”(AA)
14 The four living creatures(AB) said, “Amen,”(AC) and the elders(AD) fell down and worshiped.(AE)
