Apocalipse 5
Portuguese New Testament: Easy-to-Read Version
As visões do pergaminho selado com sete selos e do cordeiro
5 Vi na mão direita daquele que estava sentado no trono um pergaminho escrito em ambos os lados e selado com sete selos. 2 Vi também um anjo forte, que proclamava bem alto:
—Quem é digno de quebrar os selos e abrir o pergaminho?
3 Mas nem no céu, nem na terra, nem debaixo da terra, havia alguém que fosse capaz de abrir o pergaminho e de ver o que estava escrito nele. 4 E eu chorava muito, porque não se tinha encontrado ninguém digno de abrir o pergaminho e de ver o que estava escrito nele. 5 Contudo um dos líderes me disse:
—Não chore. Olhe, o Leão da tribo de Judá, o grande descendente de Davi,[a] venceu e, portanto, pode quebrar os sete selos e abrir o pergaminho.
6 Então vi um Cordeiro em pé bem em frente do trono e dos quatro seres viventes e na presença dos líderes. Parecia que o Cordeiro tinha sido morto. Ele tinha sete chifres, bem como sete[b] olhos que são os sete espíritos de Deus enviados por toda a terra. 7 O Cordeiro, então, veio e pegou o pergaminho da mão direita daquele que estava sentado no trono. 8 Quando ele pegou o pergaminho, os quatro seres viventes e os vinte e quatro líderes caíram de joelhos diante do Cordeiro. Eles tinham uma harpa cada um e estavam segurando taças de ouro cheias de incenso, que são as orações do povo de Deus. 9 E todos eles cantavam um novo cântico:
“O Senhor é digno de pegar o pergaminho
e de abrir os seus selos,
porque foi morto e com o seu sangue comprou[c] para Deus
pessoas de todas as famílias, línguas, povos e nações.
10 Fez delas[d] um reino.
O Senhor também fez delas sacerdotes para o nosso Deus
e elas reinarão sobre toda a terra”.
11 Olhei outra vez e ouvi as vozes de muitos anjos, milhões e milhões deles! Eles estavam de pé ao redor do trono, dos seres viventes e dos líderes, 12 e diziam em voz alta:
“O Cordeiro, que foi morto,
é digno de receber poder, riqueza,
sabedoria, força,
honra, glória e louvor!”
13 Então ouvi que todas as criaturas que há no céu, na terra, debaixo da terra e no mar, todas as criaturas do universo, estavam dizendo:
“Àquele que está sentado no trono
e ao Cordeiro,
pertençam o louvor, a honra, a glória
e o domínio para todo o sempre”.
14 E ouvi os quatro seres viventes responderem: “Amém!” Os líderes também caíram de joelhos e adoraram.

O Livro e o Cordeiro
5 Então vi na mão direita daquele que está assentado no trono um livro em forma de rolo, escrito de ambos os lados e selado com sete selos. 2 Vi um anjo poderoso, proclamando em alta voz: “Quem é digno de romper os selos e de abrir o livro?” 3 Mas não havia ninguém, nem no céu nem na terra nem debaixo da terra, que pudesse abrir o livro, ou sequer olhar para ele. 4 Eu chorava muito, porque não se encontrou ninguém que fosse digno de abrir o livro e de olhar para ele. 5 Então um dos anciãos me disse: “Não chore! Eis que o Leão da tribo de Judá, a Raiz de Davi, venceu para abrir o livro e os seus sete selos”.
6 Depois vi um Cordeiro, que parecia ter estado morto, em pé, no centro do trono, cercado pelos quatro seres viventes e pelos anciãos. Ele tinha sete chifres e sete olhos, que são os sete espíritos de Deus enviados a toda a terra. 7 Ele se aproximou e recebeu o livro da mão direita daquele que estava assentado no trono. 8 Ao recebê-lo, os quatro seres viventes e os vinte e quatro anciãos prostraram-se diante do Cordeiro. Cada um deles tinha uma harpa e taças de ouro cheias de incenso, que são as orações dos santos; 9 e eles cantavam um cântico novo:
“Tu és digno de receber o livro
e de abrir os seus selos,
pois foste morto,
e com teu sangue compraste para Deus
gente de toda tribo, língua, povo e nação.
10 Tu os constituíste reino
e sacerdotes
para o nosso Deus,
e eles reinarão sobre a terra”.
11 Então olhei e ouvi a voz de muitos anjos, milhares de milhares e milhões de milhões. Eles rodeavam o trono, bem como os seres viventes e os anciãos, 12 e cantavam em alta voz:
“Digno é o Cordeiro
que foi morto
de receber poder, riqueza, sabedoria, força,
honra, glória e louvor!”
13 Depois ouvi todas as criaturas existentes no céu, na terra, debaixo da terra e no mar, e tudo o que neles há, que diziam:
“Àquele que está assentado
no trono
e ao Cordeiro
sejam o louvor, a honra,
a glória e o poder,
para todo o sempre!”
14 Os quatro seres viventes disseram: “Amém”, e os anciãos prostraram-se e o adoraram.
Revelation 5
Christian Standard Bible
The Lamb Takes the Scroll
5 Then I saw in the right hand of the one seated on the throne a scroll with writing on both sides, sealed with seven seals.(A) 2 I also saw a mighty angel(B) proclaiming with a loud voice, “Who is worthy to open the scroll and break its seals?” 3 But no one in heaven or on earth or under the earth was able to open the scroll or even to look in it. 4 I wept and wept because no one was found worthy to open[a] the scroll or even to look in it. 5 Then one of the elders said to me, “Do not weep. Look, the Lion from the tribe of Judah,(C) the Root of David,(D) has conquered(E) so that he is able to open the scroll and[b] its seven seals.”
6 Then I saw one like a slaughtered lamb(F) standing in the midst of the throne and the four living creatures and among the elders. He had seven horns and seven eyes, which are the seven spirits of God(G) sent into all the earth. 7 He went and took the scroll out of the right hand of the one seated on the throne.
The Lamb Is Worthy
8 When he took the scroll, the four living creatures and the twenty-four elders fell down before the Lamb. Each one had a harp(H) and golden bowls(I) filled with incense,(J) which are the prayers of the saints. 9 And they sang a new song:(K)
You are worthy to take the scroll
and to open its seals,
because you were slaughtered,
and you purchased[c] people[d]
for God by your blood
from every tribe and language
and people and nation.(L)
10 You made them a kingdom[e]
and priests to our God,(M)
and they will reign on the earth.
11 Then I looked and heard the voice of many angels around the throne, and also of the living creatures and of the elders. Their number was countless thousands, plus thousands of thousands.(N) 12 They said with a loud voice,
Worthy is the Lamb who was slaughtered
to receive power and riches
and wisdom and strength
and honor and glory and blessing!
13 I heard every creature in heaven, on earth, under the earth,(O) on the sea, and everything in them say,(P)
Blessing and honor and glory and power
be to the one seated on the throne,
and to the Lamb, forever and ever!
14 The four living creatures said, “Amen,” and the elders fell down and worshiped.
Revelation 5
King James Version
5 And I saw in the right hand of him that sat on the throne a book written within and on the backside, 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 in heaven, nor in earth, neither under the earth, was able to open the book, neither to look thereon.
4 And I wept much, because no man was found worthy to open and to read the book, neither to look thereon.
5 And one of the elders saith unto me, Weep not: behold, the Lion of the tribe of Judah, the Root of David, hath prevailed to open the book, and to loose the seven seals thereof.
6 And I beheld, and, lo, in the midst of the throne and of the four beasts, and in the midst of the elders, stood a Lamb as it had been 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 upon the throne.
8 And when he had taken the book, the four beasts and four and twenty elders 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 song, saying, Thou art worthy to take the book, and to open the seals thereof: for thou wast slain, and hast redeemed us to God by thy blood out of every kindred, and tongue, and people, and nation;
10 And hast made us unto our God kings 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 beasts 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 that was slain to receive power, and riches, and wisdom, and strength, and honour, and glory, and blessing.
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, heard I saying, Blessing, and honour, and glory, and power, be unto him that sitteth upon the throne, and unto the Lamb for ever and ever.
14 And the four beasts said, Amen. And the four and twenty elders fell down and worshipped him that liveth for ever and ever.

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)
