启示录 5
Chinese New Version (Simplified)
得胜的羊羔配展开书卷
5 我看见那位坐在宝座上的，右手拿着书卷，这书卷的两面都写满了字，用七个印封着。 2 我又看见一位大力的天使，大声宣告说：“谁配展开那书卷，拆开它的封印呢？” 3 在天上、地上、地底下，没有一个能够展开书卷观看的。 4 因为没有人配展开观看书卷，我就大哭。 5 长老中有一位对我说：“不要哭！看哪，那从犹大支派出来的狮子，大卫的根，他已经得胜了，他能够展开那书卷，拆开它的七印。”
6 我又看见在宝座和四个活物中间，并且在众长老中间，有羊羔站着，像是被杀过的。他有七角七眼，就是 神的七灵，奉差遣到全地去的。 7 羊羔走过去，从坐在宝座上那位的右手中取了书卷。 8 他拿了书卷之后，四个活物和二十四位长老就俯伏在羊羔面前，各拿着琴和盛满了香的金炉，这香就是众圣徒的祈祷。 9 他们唱着新歌，说：
“你配取书卷，配拆开封印，
因为你曾被杀，曾用你的血，
从各支派、各方言、各民族、各邦国，
把人买了来归给 神，
10 使他们成为我们 神的国度和祭司，
他们要在地上执掌王权。”
11 我又观看，听见了千千万万天使的声音，他们都在宝座、活物和长老的四周， 12 大声说：
“被杀的羊羔是配得
权能、丰富、智慧、力量、
尊贵、荣耀、颂赞的！”
13 我又听见在天上、地上、地底下和海里的一切被造之物，以及天地间的万有，都说：
“愿颂赞、尊贵、荣耀、能力，
都归给坐在宝座上的那一位和羊羔，
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

The Scroll and the Lamb
5 (A)I saw a scroll in the right hand of the one who sits on the throne; it was covered with writing on both sides and was sealed with seven seals. 2 And I saw a mighty angel, who announced in a loud voice, “Who is worthy to break the seals and open the scroll?” 3 But there was no one in heaven or on earth or in the world below[a] who could open the scroll and look inside it. 4 I cried bitterly because no one could be found who was worthy to open the scroll or look inside it. 5 (B)Then one of the elders said to me, “Don't cry. Look! The Lion from Judah's tribe, the great descendant of David, has won the victory, and he can break the seven seals and open the scroll.”
6 (C)Then I saw a Lamb standing in the center of the throne, surrounded by the four living creatures and the elders. The Lamb appeared to have been killed. It had seven horns and seven eyes, which are the seven spirits of God that have been sent through the whole earth. 7 The Lamb went and took the scroll from the right hand of the one who sits on the throne. 8 (D)As he did so, the four living creatures and the twenty-four elders fell down before the Lamb. Each had a harp and gold bowls filled with incense, which are the prayers of God's people. 9 (E)They sang a new song:
“You are worthy to take the scroll
and to break open its seals.
For you were killed, and by your sacrificial death you bought for God
people from every tribe, language, nation, and race.
10 (F)You have made them a kingdom of priests to serve our God,
and they shall rule on earth.”
11 (G)Again I looked, and I heard angels, thousands and millions of them! They stood around the throne, the four living creatures, and the elders, 12 and sang in a loud voice:
“The Lamb who was killed is worthy
to receive power, wealth, wisdom, and strength,
honor, glory, and praise!”
13 And I heard every creature in heaven, on earth, in the world below, and in the sea—all living beings in the universe—and they were singing:
“To him who sits on the throne and to the Lamb,
be praise and honor, glory and might,
forever and ever!”
14 The four living creatures answered, “Amen!” And the elders fell down and worshiped.
