Apocalipsis 5
Nueva Traducción Viviente
El Cordero abre el rollo
5 Luego vi un rollo[a] en la mano derecha de aquel que estaba sentado en el trono. El rollo estaba escrito por dentro y por fuera, y sellado con siete sellos. 2 Vi a un ángel poderoso, que proclamaba con fuerte voz: «¿Quién es digno de romper los sellos de este rollo y abrirlo?». 3 Pero nadie en el cielo ni en la tierra ni debajo de la tierra podía abrir el rollo y leerlo.
4 Entonces comencé a llorar amargamente porque no se encontraba a nadie digno de abrir el rollo y leerlo; 5 pero uno de los veinticuatro ancianos me dijo: «¡Deja de llorar! Mira, el León de la tribu de Judá, el heredero del trono de David,[b] ha ganado la victoria. Él es digno de abrir el rollo y sus siete sellos».
6 Entonces vi a un Cordero que parecía que había sido sacrificado, pero que ahora estaba de pie entre el trono y los cuatro seres vivientes y en medio de los veinticuatro ancianos. Tenía siete cuernos y siete ojos que representan los siete aspectos del Espíritu[c] de Dios, el cual es enviado a todas las partes de la tierra. 7 Él pasó adelante y tomó el rollo de la mano derecha del que estaba sentado en el trono. 8 Y cuando tomó el rollo, los cuatro seres vivientes y los veinticuatro ancianos se postraron delante del Cordero. Cada uno tenía un arpa y llevaba copas de oro llenas de incienso, que son las oraciones del pueblo de Dios. 9 Y cantaban un nuevo canto con las siguientes palabras:
«Tú eres digno de tomar el rollo
y de romper los sellos y abrirlo.
Pues tú fuiste sacrificado y tu sangre pagó el rescate para Dios
de gente de todo pueblo, tribu, lengua y nación.
10 Y la has transformado
en un reino de sacerdotes para nuestro Dios.
Y reinarán[d] sobre la tierra».
11 Entonces volví a mirar y oí las voces de miles de millones de ángeles alrededor del trono y de los seres vivientes y de los ancianos. 12 Ellos cantaban en un potente coro:
«Digno es el Cordero que fue sacrificado,
de recibir el poder y las riquezas
y la sabiduría y la fuerza
y el honor y la gloria y la bendición».
13 Y entonces oí a toda criatura en el cielo, en la tierra, debajo de la tierra y en el mar que cantaban:
«Bendición y honor y gloria y poder
le pertenecen a aquel que está sentado en el trono
y al Cordero por siempre y para siempre».
14 Y los cuatro seres vivientes decían: «¡Amén!». Y los veinticuatro ancianos se postraron y adoraron al Cordero.
Revelation 5
English Standard Version
The Scroll and the Lamb
5 Then I saw in the right hand of him who was seated on the throne (A)a scroll written within and on the back, (B)sealed with seven seals. 2 And (C)I saw a mighty angel proclaiming with a loud voice, “Who is worthy to open the scroll and break its seals?” 3 And no one in heaven or on earth or under the earth was able to open the scroll or to look into it, 4 and I began to weep loudly because no one was found worthy to open the scroll or to look into it. 5 And one of the elders said to me, “Weep no more; behold, (D)the Lion (E)of the tribe of Judah, (F)the Root of David, has conquered, so that he can open the scroll and its seven seals.”
6 And between the throne and the four living creatures and among the elders I saw (G)a Lamb standing, as though it had been slain, with seven horns and with (H)seven eyes, which are (I)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 (J)fell down before the Lamb, (K)each holding a harp, and (L)golden bowls full of incense, (M)which are the prayers of the saints. 9 And they sang (N)a new song, saying,
“Worthy are you to take the scroll
and to open its seals,
for (O)you were slain, and by your blood (P)you ransomed people for God
from (Q)every tribe and language and people and nation,
10 and you have made them (R)a kingdom and priests to our God,
and they shall reign on the earth.”
11 Then I looked, and I heard around the throne and the living creatures and the elders the voice of many angels, numbering (S)myriads of myriads and thousands of thousands, 12 saying with a loud voice,
(T)“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 (U)every creature in heaven and on earth and under the earth and in the sea, and all that is in them, saying,
“To him who sits on the throne and to the Lamb
be blessing and honor and glory and might forever and ever!”
14 And the four living creatures (V)said, “Amen!” and the elders (W)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.
