Revelation 5

1 I saw, in the right hand of him who sat on the throne, a book written inside and outside, sealed shut with seven seals.

Pea ne u mamata ʻi he nima toʻomataʻu ʻo ia naʻe nofo ʻi he nofoʻa fakaʻeiʻeiki ʻae tohi kuo tohi ʻi loto mo tuʻa, pea fakamaʻu ʻaki ʻae meʻa fakamaʻu ʻe fitu.

2 I saw a mighty angel proclaiming with a loud voice, “Who is worthy to open the book, and to break its seals?”

Pea ne u mamata ki ha ʻāngelo mālohi, ʻoku kalanga ʻaki ʻae leʻo lahi, “Ko hai ʻoku taau ke toʻo ʻae tohi, mo vete hono ngaahi meʻa fakamaʻu ʻo ia?”

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.

Pea naʻe ʻikai ha tokotaha ʻi he langi, pe ʻi māmani, pe ʻi lalo ʻi māmani, ʻoku faʻa fai ke toʻo ʻae tohi, pe ke mamata ki ai.

4 Then I wept much, because no one was found worthy to open the book or to look in it.

Pea ne u tangi lahi, koeʻuhi naʻe ʻikai ke ʻiloʻi ha taha ʻoku taau ke ne toʻo mo lau ʻae tohi, pe ke mamata ki ai.

5 One of the elders said to me, “Do not 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.”

Pea pehē ʻe ha tokotaha ʻoe kau mātuʻa kiate au, “ʻOua ʻe tangi: vakai, ko e Laione ʻoe faʻahinga ʻo Siuta, ko e Aka ʻo Tevita, kuo ne lavaʻi ke ne toʻo ʻae tohi, pea ke vete ʻa hono meʻa fakamaʻu ʻe fitu.”

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.

Pea ne u mamata, pea vakai, ʻi he haʻohaʻonga ʻoe nofoʻa fakaʻeiʻeiki mo e meʻa moʻui ʻe fā, pea ʻi he haʻohaʻonga ʻoe kau mātuʻa, naʻe tuaʻā e Lami ʻo hangē kuo tāmateʻi, kuo fitu ʻae nifo ʻi hono ʻulu, mo e mata ʻe fitu, ʻaia ko e Laumālie ʻe Fitu ʻoe ʻOtua ʻoku fekau atu ki māmani kotoa pē.

7 Then he came, and he took it out of the right hand of him who sat on the throne.

Pea naʻe haʻu ia, ʻo ne toʻo ʻae tohi mei he nima toʻomataʻu ʻo ia naʻe nofo ʻi he nofoʻa fakaʻeiʻeiki.

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.

Pea ʻi heʻene toʻo ʻae tohi, naʻe fakafoʻohifo ʻi he ʻao ʻoe Lami ʻae meʻa moʻui ʻe fā mo e kau mātuʻa ʻe toko uofulu ma toko fā, naʻa nau taki taha ʻae haʻape, mo e hina koula kuo pito ʻi he meʻa namu kakala, ʻaia ko e ngaahi lotu ʻoe kakai māʻoniʻoni.

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,

Pea naʻa nau hiva ʻaki ʻae hiva foʻou, ʻo pehē, “ʻOku taau mo koe ke toʻo ʻae tohi, Pea ke vete hono ngaahi meʻa fakamaʻu ʻo ia: He naʻe tāmateʻi koe, Pea kuo ke huhuʻi ʻae kakai ʻaki ho taʻataʻa ki he ʻOtua, Mei he faʻahinga, mo e lea, mo e kakai, mo e puleʻanga kotoa pē.

10 and made us kings and priests to our God; and we will reign on the earth.”

Pea kuo ke ngaohi ʻakinautolu ko e ngaahi tuʻi mo e kau taulaʻeiki ki homau ʻOtua: Pea te nau pule ʻi he maama.”

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,

Pea ne u vakai, pea u fanongo ki he leʻo ʻoe kau ʻāngelo tokolahi naʻe tuʻu takatakai ʻi he nofoʻa fakaʻeiʻeiki mo e ngaahi meʻa moʻui mo e kau mātuʻa: pea ko honau lau ko e ngaahi toko mano lauʻi ngaahi mano, mo e ngaahi toko afe lauʻi ngaahi toko afe;

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!”

‌ʻOku nau pehē, ʻaki ʻae leʻo lahi, “ʻOku taau mo e Lami naʻe tāmateʻi Ke tuku kiate ia ʻae māfimafi, mo e koloa, mo e poto, Mo e mālohi, mo e fakaʻapaʻapa, mo e ongoongolelei, mo e fakafetaʻi.”

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, for the ages (aiōn g165) of the ages (aiōn g165)! Amen!"

Pea ne u fanongo ki he ngaahi meʻa kotoa pē ʻaia ʻoku ʻi he langi, pea ʻi he māmani, pea ʻi lalo ʻi māmani, pea mo ia ʻoku ʻi he tahi, pea mo kinautolu kotoa pē ʻoku ʻi ai, naʻa nau pehē, “Ke ʻiate ia ʻoku nofo ʻi he nofoʻa fakaʻeiʻeiki, pea ki he Lami, ʻae fakafetaʻi, mo e fakaʻapaʻapa, mo e ongoongolelei, mo e māfimafi, ʻo taʻengata pea taʻengata.” (aiōn g165)

14 The four living creatures said, "Amen!" Then the elders fell down and worshiped.

Pea naʻe pehē ʻe he meʻa moʻui ʻe fā, “ʻEmeni.” Pea naʻe fakafoʻohifo ʻae mātuʻa ʻe toko uofulu ma toko fā, ʻo hū kiate ia ʻoku moʻui ʻo taʻengata pea taʻengata.
