Pahayag 5
Ang Bagong Tipan: Filipino Standard Version
Ang Aklat at ang Kordero
5 At nakita (A) ko sa kanang kamay ng nakaupo sa trono ang isang balumbon na may sulat sa harap at likod at sarado ng pitong tatak. 2 Nakita ko rin ang isang makapangyarihang anghel na pasigaw na nagpapahayag, “Sino ang karapat-dapat na magbukas ng balumbon at magtanggal ng mga tatak nito?” 3 Ngunit walang sinuman sa langit, sa lupa o sa ilalim man ng lupa ang makapagbukas ng balumbon o kaya'y makatingin sa loob nito. 4 Umiyak ako nang umiyak dahil walang natagpuang karapat-dapat na magbukas ng balumbon o tumingin sa loob nito. 5 (B) Isa sa matatanda ay nagsabi sa akin, “Huwag kang umiyak. Tingnan mo, ang Leon ng lipi ni Juda, na ugat ni David, ay nagtagumpay at kaya niyang buksan ang balumbon at tanggalin ang pitong tatak nito.”
6 At (C) nakita ko sa gitna ng trono at ng apat na buháy na nilalang at ng matatanda ang isang Korderong nakatayo, na tulad ng isang pinatay na may pitong sungay at pitong mata. Ang mga ito'y ang pitong[a] espiritu ng Diyos na isinugo sa buong daigdig. 7 Lumapit ang Kordero at kinuha ang balumbon sa kanang kamay ng nakaupo sa trono. 8 At nang (D) makuha niya ang balumbon, nagpatirapa sa harap ng Kordero ang apat na buháy na nilalang at ang dalawampu't apat na matatanda. Ang bawat isa ay may hawak na alpa at mga gintong mangkok na puno ng insenso, na ang mga ito'y mga panalangin ng mga banal. 9 At umaawit (E) sila ng isang bagong awit:
“Ikaw ang karapat-dapat na kumuha sa balumbon
at magbukas sa mga tatak nito,
sapagkat ikaw ay pinaslang at sa pamamagitan ng iyong dugo, tinubos mo para sa Diyos
ang tao mula sa bawat lipi, wika, bayan, at bansa;
10 at ginawa (F) mo silang isang kaharian at mga paring naglilingkod sa aming Diyos,
at sila'y maghahari sa daigdig.”
11 (G) Ako'y muling tumingin at narinig ko ang tinig ng maraming mga anghel na nakapaligid sa trono, at ng mga buháy na nilalang, at ng mga matatanda; milyun-milyon at libu-libo ang bilang nila, 12 na malakas na umaawit,
“Ang pinaslang na kordero ay karapat-dapat
na tumanggap ng kapangyarihan, kayamanan, karunungan, kalakasan,
karangalan, kaluwalhatian, at kapurihan!”
13 At narinig ko ang bawat nilalang sa langit at sa lupa, at sa ilalim ng lupa at sa dagat, at maging ang lahat ng bagay na nasa mga ito, na nagsasabi,
“Sa kanya na nakaupo sa trono at sa Kordero
ay kapurihan, karangalan, kaluwalhatian, at kapangyarihan
magpakailanpaman!”
14 Sinabi ng apat na buháy na nilalang, “Amen!” At nagpatirapa ang matatanda at sila'y sumamba.

Revelation 5
New King James Version
The Lamb Takes the Scroll
5 And I saw in the right hand of Him who sat on the throne (A)a scroll written inside and on the back, (B)sealed with seven seals. 2 Then I saw a strong angel proclaiming with a loud voice, (C)“Who is worthy to open the scroll and to loose its seals?” 3 And no one in heaven or on the earth or under the earth was able to open the scroll, or to look at it.
4 So I wept much, because no one was found worthy to open [a]and read the scroll, or to look at it. 5 But one of the elders said to me, “Do not weep. Behold, (D)the Lion of the tribe of (E)Judah, (F)the Root of David, has (G)prevailed to open the scroll (H)and [b]to loose its seven seals.”
6 And I looked, [c]and behold, in the midst of the throne and of the four living creatures, and in the midst of the elders, stood (I)a Lamb as though it had been slain, having seven horns and (J)seven eyes, which are (K)the seven Spirits of God sent out into all the earth. 7 Then He came and took the scroll out of the right hand (L)of Him who sat on the throne.
Worthy Is the Lamb
8 Now when He had taken the scroll, (M)the four living creatures and the twenty-four elders fell down before the Lamb, each having a harp, and golden bowls full of incense, which are the (N)prayers of the saints. 9 And (O)they sang a new song, saying:
(P)“You are worthy to take the scroll,
And to open its seals;
For You were slain,
And (Q)have redeemed us to God (R)by Your blood
Out of every tribe and tongue and people and nation,
10 And have made [d]us (S)kings[e] and (T)priests to our God;
And [f]we shall reign on the earth.”
11 Then I looked, and I heard the voice of many angels around the throne, the living creatures, 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 who was slain
To receive power and riches and wisdom,
And strength and honor and glory and blessing!”
13 And (U)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, I heard saying:
(V)“Blessing and honor and glory and power
Be to Him (W)who sits on the throne,
And to the Lamb, forever and [g]ever!”
14 Then the four living creatures said, “Amen!” And the [h]twenty-four elders fell down and worshiped [i]Him who lives forever and ever.

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.
