启示录 5
Chinese Contemporary Bible (Simplified)
羔羊与封印的书卷
5 接着，我看见坐在宝座上的那位右手拿着一卷内外写着字、用七个印封住的书。 2 有一位大力天使高声问道：“谁有资格揭开那七个封印，打开那卷书？” 3 可是，天上、地上、甚至地底下都没有人有资格揭开并阅读那卷书。 4 我见无人有资格揭开并阅读那卷书，便放声大哭。 5 有一位长老对我说：“不要哭。你看，犹大支派的狮子、大卫的根已经得胜了！祂能揭开那七个封印，打开那卷书。”
6 我又看到宝座、四个活物和众长老之间站着一只好像是被宰杀过的羔羊。祂身上的七只角和七只眼睛代表奉差遣到普天下去的上帝的七灵。 7 那羔羊走上前去，从坐在宝座上的那位右手中接过书卷。 8 祂拿过书卷后，四个活物和二十四位长老就俯伏在羔羊面前，各拿着竖琴和盛满了香的金香炉。那些香就是众圣徒的祈祷。 9 他们唱着一首新歌：
“你配拿书卷并揭开封印，
因你曾被杀，
用你的血从各部落、各语言族群、各民族、各国家，
将人买赎回来归给上帝。
10 你又使他们成为上帝的国度和祭司，
他们要在地上执掌王权。”
11 我看见宝座、四个活物和众长老的周围有千千万万的天使，又听见他们高声呼喊： 12 “那被杀的羔羊配得权柄、财富、智慧、能力、尊贵、荣耀和颂赞！”
13 我又听到天上、地上、地底下和海洋中一切被造之物同声说：“愿颂赞、尊贵、荣耀和权柄都归于坐在宝座上的那位和羔羊，直到永永远远！” 14 四个活物就说：“阿们！”众长老也俯伏敬拜。
Revelation 5
Douay-Rheims 1899 American Edition
5 And I saw in the right hand of him that sat on the throne, a book written within and without, sealed with seven seals.
2 And I saw a strong angel, proclaiming with a loud voice: Who is worthy to open the book, and to loose the seals thereof?
3 And no man was able, neither in heaven, nor on earth, nor under the earth, to open the book, nor to look on it.
4 And I wept much, because no man was found worthy to open the book, nor to see it.
5 And one of the ancients said to me: Weep not; behold the lion of the tribe of Juda, the root of David, hath prevailed to open the book, and to loose the seven seals thereof.
6 And I saw: and behold in the midst of the throne and of the four living creatures, and in the midst of the ancients, a Lamb standing as it were slain, having seven horns and seven eyes: which are the seven Spirits of God, sent forth into all the earth.
7 And he came and took the book out of the right hand of him that sat on the throne.
8 And when he had opened the book, the four living creatures, and the four and twenty ancients fell down before the Lamb, having every one of them harps, and golden vials full of odours, which are the prayers of saints:
9 And they sung a new canticle, saying: Thou art worthy, O Lord, to take the book, and to open the seals thereof; because thou wast slain, and hast redeemed us to God, in thy blood, out of every tribe, and tongue, and people, and nation.
10 And hast made us to our God a kingdom and priests, and we shall reign on the earth.
11 And I beheld, and I heard the voice of many angels round about the throne, and the living creatures, and the ancients; and the number of them was thousands of thousands,
12 Saying with a loud voice: The Lamb that was slain is worthy to receive power, and divinity, and wisdom, and strength, and honour, and glory, and benediction.
13 And 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 all saying: To him that sitteth on the throne, and to the Lamb, benediction, and honour, and glory, and power, for ever and ever.
14 And the four living creatures said: Amen. And the four and twenty ancients fell down on their faces, and adored him that liveth for ever and ever.
