Apocalisse 5
Nuova Riveduta 2006

Il libro dei sette sigilli. Solo l’Agnello è degno di aprirlo

5 (A)Vidi nella destra di colui che sedeva sul trono un libro scritto di dentro e di fuori, sigillato con sette sigilli. 2 E vidi un angelo potente che gridava a gran voce: «Chi è degno di aprire il libro e di sciogliere i sigilli?» 3 Ma nessuno, né in cielo, né sulla terra, né sotto la terra, poteva aprire il libro, né guardarlo. 4 Io piangevo molto perché non si era trovato nessuno che fosse degno di aprire[a] il libro e di guardarlo. 5 Ma uno degli anziani mi disse: «Non piangere; ecco, il leone della tribù di Giuda, la radice di Davide, ha vinto per aprire il libro e[b] i suoi sette sigilli».

6 Poi vidi[c], in mezzo al trono e alle quattro creature viventi e in mezzo agli anziani, un Agnello in piedi, come immolato, e aveva sette corna e sette occhi, che sono i {sette} spiriti di Dio, mandati per tutta la terra. 7 Egli venne e prese il libro dalla destra di colui che sedeva sul trono.

8 Quando ebbe preso il libro, le quattro creature viventi e i ventiquattro anziani si prostrarono davanti all’Agnello, ciascuno con una cetra e delle coppe d’oro piene di profumi, che sono le preghiere dei santi. 9 Essi cantavano un cantico nuovo, dicendo: «Tu sei degno di prendere il libro e di aprirne i sigilli, perché sei stato immolato e hai acquistato a Dio, con il tuo sangue, gente di ogni tribù[d], lingua, popolo e nazione, 10 e ne hai fatto[e] per il nostro Dio un regno e dei sacerdoti[f]; e regneranno[g] sulla terra».

11 E vidi, e udii la voce[h] di molti angeli intorno al trono, alle creature viventi e agli anziani; e il loro numero era di miriadi di miriadi e di migliaia di migliaia. 12 Essi dicevano a gran voce: «Degno è l’Agnello, che è stato immolato, di ricevere la potenza, le ricchezze, la sapienza, la forza, l’onore, la gloria e la lode».

13 E tutte le creature che sono nel cielo, sulla terra, sotto la terra e nel mare[i], e tutte le cose che sono in essi, udii che dicevano: «A colui che siede sul trono, e all’Agnello, siano la lode, l’onore, la gloria e la potenza, nei secoli dei secoli[j]».

14 Le quattro creature viventi dicevano: «Amen!» E gli anziani[k] si prostrarono e adorarono[l].

Hisgalus 5
Orthodox Jewish Bible

5 And I saw on the yad yamin (right hand) of the One sitting on the Kes (Throne) a sefer (book) having been written inside and on the back, having been sealed with sheva chotamot (seven seals). [YECHEZKEL 2:9,10; YESHAYAH 29:11; DANIEL 12:4]

2 And I saw a strong malach (angel), proclaiming in a kol gadol (loud voice), Who is worthy to open the sefer (book) and break its chotamot (seals)?

3 And no one in Shomayim or on ha’aretz or under ha’aretz was being able to open the sefer (book) or to look into it.

4 And I was weeping copiously because no one was found worthy to open the sefer (book) or to look into it.

5 And one of the Zekenim says to me, Do not weep, hinei, HaAryeh (The Lion) from the Shevet Yehudah (Tribe of Judah), the Shoresh Dovid (Root of Dovid), has won the nitzachon (victory) and he is able to open the sefer (book) and its sheva chotamot (seven seals). [BERESHIS 49:9; YESHAYAH 11:1,10]

6 And I saw between the Kes (Throne) and the Arbah Chayyot (four living beings) and among the Zekenim (Elders, SHEMOT 12:21) a SEH (Lamb, YESHAYAH 53:7, Moshiach) having stood as having been slain, having sheva karnayim (horns, omnipotence), sheva eynayim (eyes, omniscience), which are the sheva ruchot (spirits) of Hashem having been sent into kol ha’aretz (all the earth).

7 And the SEH (Lamb, YESHAYAH 53:7) came and has taken the sefer out of the yad yamin (right hand) of the One sitting on the Kes (Throne).

8 And when the SEH (YESHAYAH 53:7) received the sefer, the Arbah Chayyot (four living beings) and the esrim v’arba’ah Zekenim (twenty-four Elders, SHEMOT 12:21) fell down before the SEH, (Lamb, YESHAYAH 53:7) each one having a nevel (harp) and golden ke’arot (bowls) full of ketoret (incense), which are the tefillos (prayers) of the Kadoshim. [TEHILLIM 141:2;16:3]

9 And they are singing a SHIR CHADASH (TEHILLIM 96:1) saying, Worthy art thou to take the sefer (book) and to open the chotamot (seals) of it, because you were slain and with your dahm [kapporah] you paid the price for the Geulah [VAYIKRA 25:50-51] redemption and purchased ones for Hashem from every mishpochah (family) and lashon (tongue) and am (people) and goy (nation), [TEHILLIM 40:3; 98:1; YESHAYAH 42:10]

10 And made them for Eloheinu a Malchut and kohanim, and they will reign on ha’aretz (the earth).

11 And I saw and I heard the kol (voice) of many malachim (angels); they numbered myriads of myriads and v’alfei alafim (thousands of thousands), around the Kes (Throne) and the Chayyot (the living beings) and the Zekenim (Elders, SHEMOT 12:21) [DANIEL 7:10]

12 Saying with a kol gadol, Worthy is the SEH (Lamb, SHEMOT 12:3; YESHAYAH 53:7 Moshiach) having been slain, to receive the oz (power) and the osher (wealth) and the chochmah (wisdom) and the gevurah (strength) and hod (honor) and kavod (glory) and bracha (blessing).

13 And every beriyah (creature) which is in Shomayim and on ha’aretz (the earth) and under ha’aretz and on the yam (sea) and all things in them, I heard saying, To the One sitting on the Kes (Throne) and to the SEH (Lamb, SHEMOT 12:3; YESHAYAH 53:7 Moshiach) be the bracha (blessing) and the hod (honor) and the hadar (glory) and the memshalah (dominion) ad Olemei Olamim (forever and ever). [DIVREY HAYAMIM ALEF 29:11; MALACHI 1:6; 2:2]

14 And the Arbah Chayyot were saying, Omein. And the Zekenim (Elders, SHEMOT 12:21) fell down and worshiped.

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)
