Revelation 5:6-13

New International Version

⁶Then I saw a Lamb,^(A) looking as if it had been slain, standing at the center of the throne, encircled by the four living creatures^(B) and the elders.^(C) The Lamb had seven horns and seven eyes,^(D) which are the seven spirits^[a]^(E) of God sent out into all the earth. ⁷He went and took the scroll from the right hand of him who sat on the throne.^(F) ⁸And when he had taken it, the four living creatures^(G) and the twenty-four elders^(H) fell down before the Lamb. Each one had a harp^(I) and they were holding golden bowls full of incense, which are the prayers^(J) of God’s people. ⁹And they sang a new song, saying:^(K)

“You are worthy^(L) to take the scroll
    and to open its seals,
because you were slain,
    and with your blood^(M) you purchased^(N) for God
    persons from every tribe and language and people and nation.^(O)
¹⁰You have made them to be a kingdom and priests^(P) to serve our God,
    and they will reign^[b] on the earth.”^(Q)

¹¹Then I looked and heard the voice of many angels, numbering thousands upon thousands, and ten thousand times ten thousand.^(R) They encircled the throne and the living creatures^(S) and the elders.^(T) ¹²In a loud voice they were saying:

“Worthy is the Lamb,^(U) who was slain,^(V)
to receive power and wealth and wisdom and strength
and honor and glory and praise!”^(W)

¹³Then I heard every creature in heaven and on earth and under the earth^(X) and on the sea, and all that is in them, saying:

“To him who sits on the throne^(Y) and to the Lamb^(Z)
be praise and honor and glory and power,
for ever and ever!”^(AA)
