Revelation 5 New American Standard Bible (NASB)

The Scroll with Seven Seals

5 I saw ^[a]in the right hand of Him who ^(A)sat on the throne a ^[b]^(B)scroll written inside and on the back, ^(C)sealed up with seven seals. ²And I saw a ^(D)strong angel proclaiming with a loud voice, “Who is worthy to open the scroll and to break its seals?” ³And no one ^(E)in heaven or on the earth or under the earth was able to open the scroll or to look into it. ⁴Then I began to weep greatly because no one was found worthy to open the scroll or to look into it. ⁵And one of the elders *said to me, “Stop weeping; behold, the ^(F)Lion that is ^(G)from the tribe of Judah, the ^(H)Root of David, has overcome so as to be able to open the scroll and its seven seals.”

⁶And I saw ^[c]between the throne (with the four living creatures) and ^(I)the elders a ^(J)Lamb standing, as if ^(K)slaughtered, having seven ^(L)horns and ^(M)seven eyes, which are ^[d]^(N)the seven spirits of God sent out into all the earth. ⁷And He came and took ^(O)the scroll out of the right hand of Him who ^(P)sat on the throne. ⁸When He had taken the scroll, the ^(Q)four living creatures and the ^(R)twenty-four elders ^(S)fell down before the ^(T)Lamb, each one holding a ^(U)harp and ^(V)golden bowls full of incense, which are the ^(W)prayers of the ^[e]saints. ⁹And they *sang a ^(X)new song, saying,

“^(Y)Worthy are You to take the scroll and to break its seals; for You were ^(Z)slaughtered, and You ^(AA)purchased people for God with Your blood from ^(AB)every tribe, language, people, and nation.

¹⁰You have made them into a ^(AC)kingdom and ^(AD)priests to our God, and they will ^(AE)reign upon the earth.”

Angels Exalt the Lamb

¹¹Then I looked, and I heard the voices of many angels ^(AF)around the throne and the ^(AG)living creatures and the ^(AH)elders; and the number of them was ^[f]^(AI)myriads of myriads, and thousands of thousands, ¹²saying with a loud voice,

“^(AJ)Worthy is the ^(AK)Lamb that was ^(AL)slaughtered to receive power, wealth, wisdom, might, honor, glory, and blessing.”

¹³And I heard ^(AM)every created thing which is in heaven, or on the earth, or under the earth, or on the sea, and all the things in them, saying,

“To Him who ^(AN)sits on the throne and to the ^(AO)Lamb ^(AP)be the blessing, the honor, the glory, and the dominion forever and ever.”

¹⁴And the ^(AQ)four living creatures were saying, “^(AR)Amen.” And the ^(AS)elders ^(AT)fell down and worshiped.
