< Revelation 5 >

1 And I sawe in the right honde of him that sat in ye trone a boke written with in and on the backside sealyd with vii. seales.
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 And I sawe a stronge angell which cryed with a loude voyce: Who is worthy to open the boke and to loose the seales therof.
I saw a mighty angel proclaiming with a loud voice, “Who is worthy to open the book, and to break its seals?”
3 And no man in heven ner in erth nether vnder the erth was able to open the boke nether to loke thereon.
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 And I wepte moche because no man was founde worthy to open and to rede the boke nether to loke thereon.
Then I wept much, because no one was found worthy to open the book or to look in it.
5 And one of the elders sayde unto me: wepe not: Beholde a lion beinge of the tribe of Iuda the rote of Dauid hath obtayned to open the boke and to lose the vii. seales therof.
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 And I behelde and loo in the myddes of the seate and of the. iiii. bestes and in the myddes of the elders stode a lambe as though he had bene kylled which had vii. hornes and vii. eyes which are the spretes of God sent into all the worlde.
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 And he cam and toke the boke oute of the right honde of him that sate apon the seate.
Then he came, and he took it out of the right hand of him who sat on the throne.
8 And when he had take the boke the. iiii. bestes and xxiiii. elders fell doune before the labe havynge harpes and golden vialles full of odoures which are the prayers of saynctes
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 and they songe a newe songe saynge: thou art worthy to take ye boke and to ope ye seales therof: for thou waste kylled and haste redemed vs by thy bloud out of all kynreddes and tonges and people and nacions
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 haste made vs vnto oure god kynges and prestes and we shall raygne on the erth.
and made us kings and priests to our God; and we will reign on the earth.”
11 And I behelde and I herd the voyce of many angylles aboute the trone and about the bestes and the elders and I herde thousand thousandes
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 saynge wt a lowde voyce: Worthy is the lambe that was killed to receave power and riches and wisdom and strenghte and honoure and glory and blyssynge.
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 And all creatures which are in heven and on the erth and vnder the erth and in the see and all that are in them herd I sayinge: blyssinge honour glory and power be vnto hym that sytteth apon the seate and vnto the lambe for ever more. (aiōn g165)
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!” (aiōn g165)
14 And the. iiii. bestes sayd: Ame. And the. xxiiii. elders fell apon their faces and worshypped him that lyveth for ever more.
The four living creatures said, “Amen!” Then the elders fell down and worshiped.
