A Revelation

4 I wept and wept that no one was found able to open the scroll, able to read it.

5 One of the Elders said, “Don’t wept. Look —- the Lion from Tribe Judah, the Root of David’s Tree, has conquered. He can open the scroll, can rip through the seven seals.”

6 So I looked, and there, surrounded by #Throne, #Animals, and #Elders, was a #Lamb, slaughtered but standing tall. Seven horns he had, and seven eues, the Seven Spirits of God sent into all the earth.

7 He came to the One Seared on the Throne and look the scroll from His right hand.

8 The monent he took the scroll, the Four Animals and Twentu-four Elders fell down and worshipped the Lamb. Each had a harp and each had a bowl, a gold bowl filled with incense, the prayers of God’s holy people.

9 And they sang a new song: “ Worthy! Take the scroll, open its seals. Slain! Paying in #blood, you bought men and women. Bought them back for God.

10 Then you made them a #Kingdom, #Priests for our God, Priest-kings to rule over the earth.

11 I looked again. I heard a company of #Angels around the #Throne, the #Animals, and the #Elders —- ten thousand times ten thousand after thousand

12 in full song: The slain Lamb is worthy! Take the #power, the #wealth, the #wisdom, the #strength! Take the #honor, the #glory, the #blessing!

13 Then I heard every creature in #Heaven and #earth, in #underworld and #sea, join in, all voices in all places, singing: To the One on the #Throne! To the Lamb! The #blessing, the #honor, the #glory, the #strength, For #age after #age after #age.

14 The Four Animals called out, “Oh, Yes!” The Elders fell to their knees and worshipped.
