Revelation 5
World English Bible
5 I saw, in the right hand of him who sat on the throne, a book written inside and outside, sealed shut with seven seals. 2 I saw a mighty angel proclaiming with a loud voice, “Who is worthy to open the book, and to break its seals?” 3 No one in heaven above, or on the earth, or under the earth, was able to open the book or to look in it. 4 Then I wept much, because no one was found worthy to open the book or to look in it. 5 One of the elders said to me, “Don’t weep. Behold, the Lion who is of the tribe of Judah, the Root of David, has overcome: he who opens the book and its seven seals.”
6 I saw in the middle of the throne and of the four living creatures, and in the middle of the elders, a Lamb standing, as though it had been slain, having seven horns and seven eyes, which are the seven Spirits of God, sent out into all the earth. 7 Then he came, and he took it out of the right hand of him who sat on the throne. 8 Now when he had taken the book, the four living creatures and the twenty-four elders fell down before the Lamb, each one having a harp, and golden bowls full of incense, which are the prayers of the saints. 9 They sang a new song, saying,
“You are worthy to take the book
and to open its seals,
for you were killed,
and bought us for God with your blood
out of every tribe, language, people, and nation,
10 and made us kings and priests to our God;
and we will reign on the earth.”
11 I looked, and I heard something like a voice of many angels around the throne, the living creatures, and the elders. The number of them was ten thousands of ten thousands, and thousands of thousands, 12 saying with a loud voice, “Worthy is the Lamb who has been killed to receive the power, wealth, wisdom, strength, honor, glory, and blessing!”
13 I heard every created thing which is in heaven, on the earth, under the earth, on the sea, and everything in them, saying, “To him who sits on the throne and to the Lamb be the blessing, the honor, the glory, and the dominion, forever and ever! Amen!”[a]
14 The four living creatures said, “Amen!” Then the[b] elders fell down and worshiped.[c]
Apocalipsa 5
Nouă Traducere În Limba Română
Sulul scris şi Mielul
5 În mâna dreaptă a Celui Ce şedea pe tron am văzut un sul scris pe ambele părţi şi sigilat cu şapte sigilii. 2 Am văzut un înger puternic proclamând cu glas tare: „Cine este vrednic să desfacă sulul şi să-i rupă sigiliile?“ 3 Dar nimeni în cer, nici pe pământ, nici sub pământ n-a putut să desfacă sulul şi să se uite în el. 4 Am plâns mult, pentru că nimeni n-a fost găsit vrednic să desfacă sulul şi să se uite în el. 5 Dar unul dintre bătrâni mi-a zis: „Nu plânge! Iată că Leul din seminţia lui Iuda, Rădăcina lui David, a învins şi este vrednic să desfacă sulul şi cele şapte sigilii ale lui!“
6 M-am uitat şi am văzut un Miel, care părea înjunghiat, stând în mijlocul tronului şi al celor patru fiinţe vii şi printre bătrâni. Avea şapte coarne[a] şi şapte ochi, care sunt cele şapte duhuri ale lui Dumnezeu, trimise pe întreg pământul. 7 El a venit şi a luat sulul din mâna dreaptă a Celui Ce şedea pe tron. 8 Când Mielul a luat sulul, cele patru fiinţe vii şi cei douăzeci şi patru de bătrâni au căzut la pământ înaintea Lui. Fiecare avea o harfă şi vase de aur pline cu tămâie – care sunt rugăciunile sfinţilor – 9 şi cântau un cântec nou:
„Tu eşti vrednic să iei sulul
şi să-i rupi sigiliile,
pentru că ai fost înjunghiat
şi prin sângele Tău ai răscumpărat pentru Dumnezeu
oameni din orice seminţie, limbă, popor şi neam
10 şi i-ai făcut o împărăţie şi preoţi pentru Dumnezeul nostru;
şi ei vor domni pe pământ!“
11 M-am uitat şi am auzit glasul multor îngeri care erau împrejurul tronului, al fiinţelor vii şi al bătrânilor. Numărul lor era de zece mii de ori zece mii şi de o mie de ori o mie[b]. 12 Ei spuneau cu glas puternic:
„Vrednic este Mielul, Care a fost înjunghiat,
să primească putere, bogăţie, înţelepciune, tărie,
onoare, slavă şi laudă!“
13 Apoi, pe orice făptură care este în cer, pe pământ, sub pământ, pe mare, adică orice făptură ce se află în aceste locuri, am auzit-o zicând:
„A Celui Ce şade pe tron şi a Mielului
să fie lauda, onoarea, slava şi puterea,
în vecii vecilor!“
14 Şi cele patru fiinţe vii au zis: „Amin!“, iar bătrânii au căzut la pământ şi s-au închinat.

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.
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.
