Lammet och bokrullen med sju sigill
5 Sedan såg jag att han som satt på tronen hade en bokrulle i högra handen. Den hade text på båda sidor och var förseglad med sju sigill. 2 Jag såg en väldig ängel som frågade med hög röst: ”Vem är värdig att bryta sigillen och öppna bokrullen?” 3 Men ingen i himlen eller på jorden eller under jorden kunde öppna bokrullen och se i den. 4 Jag grät av besvikelse, eftersom det inte fanns någon som var värdig att öppna bokrullen och se i den.
5 Men en av de äldste sa till mig: ”Gråt inte, för lejonet av Judas stam, Davids rotskott,[a] har segrat. Han kan bryta de sju sigillen och öppna bokrullen.”
6 Sedan såg jag ett lamm[b] i mitten av tronen och mitt ibland de fyra levande varelserna och de äldste, och det såg ut som om det hade blivit slaktat. Det hade sju horn och sju ögon, som är Guds sju andar[c], som har sänts ut över hela jorden. 7 Lammet steg nu fram till honom som satt på tronen och tog emot bokrullen från hans högra hand. 8 När Lammet tog emot bokrullen, föll de fyra levande varelserna och de tjugofyra äldste ner inför Lammet. Alla hade var sin harpa och en guldskål fylld med rökelse, som är de heligas böner. 9 Och de sjöng en ny sång:
”Du är värdig att ta bokrullen och bryta dess sigill,
för du har blivit slaktad,
och med ditt blod har du friköpt människor åt Gud
från alla stammar och språk och folk och länder.
10 Du har gjort dem till ett kungarike,
till präster åt vår Gud,
och de ska regera på jorden.”
11 Sedan såg jag och hörde en stor kör av änglar, och de stod runt tronen och de fyra levande varelserna och de tjugofyra äldste. De var tiotusentals och åter tiotusentals, tusentals och åter tusentals i antal. 12 De sjöng med väldig kraft:
”Lammet som blev slaktat är värdigt
att få makt, rikedom, vishet och styrka,
ära, härlighet och pris.”
13 Sedan hörde jag allt skapat i himlen och på jorden och under jorden och i havet säga:
”Priset och äran och härligheten och makten
tillhör honom som sitter på tronen och Lammet
i all evighet.”
14 De fyra levande varelserna sa: ”Amen.” Och de äldste föll ner och tillbad.

The Scroll and the Lamb
5 Then I saw in the right hand of him who sat on the throne(A) a scroll with writing on both sides(B) and sealed(C) with seven seals. 2 And I saw a mighty angel(D) proclaiming in a loud voice, “Who is worthy to break the seals and open the scroll?” 3 But no one in heaven or on earth or under the earth could open the scroll or even look inside it. 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(E) of the tribe of Judah,(F) the Root of David,(G) has triumphed. He is able to open the scroll and its seven seals.”
6 Then I saw a Lamb,(H) looking as if it had been slain, standing at the center of the throne, encircled by the four living creatures(I) and the elders.(J) The Lamb had seven horns and seven eyes,(K) which are the seven spirits[a](L) 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.(M) 8 And when he had taken it, the four living creatures(N) and the twenty-four elders(O) fell down before the Lamb. Each one had a harp(P) and they were holding golden bowls full of incense, which are the prayers(Q) of God’s people. 9 And they sang a new song, saying:(R)
“You are worthy(S) to take the scroll
and to open its seals,
because you were slain,
and with your blood(T) you purchased(U) for God
persons from every tribe and language and people and nation.(V)
10 You have made them to be a kingdom and priests(W) to serve our God,
and they will reign[b] on the earth.”(X)
11 Then I looked and heard the voice of many angels, numbering thousands upon thousands, and ten thousand times ten thousand.(Y) They encircled the throne and the living creatures(Z) and the elders.(AA) 12 In a loud voice they were saying:
“Worthy is the Lamb,(AB) who was slain,(AC)
to receive power and wealth and wisdom and strength
and honor and glory and praise!”(AD)
13 Then I heard every creature in heaven and on earth and under the earth(AE) and on the sea, and all that is in them, saying:
“To him who sits on the throne(AF) and to the Lamb(AG)
be praise and honor and glory and power,
for ever and ever!”(AH)
14 The four living creatures(AI) said, “Amen,”(AJ) and the elders(AK) fell down and worshiped.(AL)

The Lamb Takes the Scroll
5 And I saw in the right hand of Him who sat on the throne (A)a scroll written inside and on the back, (B)sealed with seven seals. 2 Then I saw a strong angel proclaiming with a loud voice, (C)“Who is worthy to open the scroll and to loose its seals?” 3 And no one in heaven or on the earth or under the earth was able to open the scroll, or to look at it.
4 So I wept much, because no one was found worthy to open [a]and read the scroll, or to look at it. 5 But one of the elders said to me, “Do not weep. Behold, (D)the Lion of the tribe of (E)Judah, (F)the Root of David, has (G)prevailed to open the scroll (H)and [b]to loose its seven seals.”
6 And I looked, [c]and behold, in the midst of the throne and of the four living creatures, and in the midst of the elders, stood (I)a Lamb as though it had been slain, having seven horns and (J)seven eyes, which are (K)the seven Spirits of God sent out into all the earth. 7 Then He came and took the scroll out of the right hand (L)of Him who sat on the throne.
Worthy Is the Lamb
8 Now when He had taken the scroll, (M)the four living creatures and the twenty-four elders fell down before the Lamb, each having a harp, and golden bowls full of incense, which are the (N)prayers of the saints. 9 And (O)they sang a new song, saying:
(P)“You are worthy to take the scroll,
And to open its seals;
For You were slain,
And (Q)have redeemed us to God (R)by Your blood
Out of every tribe and tongue and people and nation,
10 And have made [d]us (S)kings[e] and (T)priests to our God;
And [f]we shall reign on the earth.”
11 Then I looked, and I heard the voice of many angels around the throne, the living creatures, and the elders; and the number of them was ten thousand times ten thousand, and thousands of thousands, 12 saying with a loud voice:
“Worthy is the Lamb who was slain
To receive power and riches and wisdom,
And strength and honor and glory and blessing!”
13 And (U)every creature which is in heaven and on the earth and under the earth and such as are in the sea, and all that are in them, I heard saying:
(V)“Blessing and honor and glory and power
Be to Him (W)who sits on the throne,
And to the Lamb, forever and [g]ever!”
14 Then the four living creatures said, “Amen!” And the [h]twenty-four elders fell down and worshiped [i]Him who lives forever and ever.
