Revelation 5

1 Then I saw a scroll in the right hand of the One seated on the throne. It had writing on both sides and was sealed with seven seals.

1 我看见坐宝座的右手中有书卷，里外都写着字，用七印封严了。

2 And I saw a mighty angel proclaiming in a loud voice, “Who is worthy to break the seals and open the scroll?”

2 我又看见一位大力的天使大声宣传说：「有谁配展开那书卷，揭开那七印呢？」

3 But no one in heaven or on earth or under the earth was able to open the scroll or look inside it.

3 在天上、地上、地底下，没有能展开、能观看那书卷的。

4 And I began to weep bitterly, because no one was found worthy to open the scroll or look inside it.

4 因为没有配展开、配观看那书卷的，我就大哭。

5 Then one of the elders said to me, “Do not weep! Behold, the Lion of the tribe of Judah, the Root of David, has triumphed to open the scroll and its seven seals.”

5 长老中有一位对我说：「不要哭！看哪，犹大支派中的狮子，大卫的根，他已得胜，能以展开那书卷，揭开那七印。」

6 Then I saw a Lamb who appeared to have been slain, standing in the center of the throne, encircled by the four living creatures and the elders. The Lamb had seven horns and seven eyes, which represent the seven spirits of God sent out into all the earth.

6 我又看见宝座与四活物，并长老之中有羔羊站立，像是被杀过的，有七角七眼，就是 神的七灵，奉差遣往普天下去的。

7 And He came and took the scroll from the right hand of the One seated on the throne.

7 这羔羊前来，从坐宝座的右手里拿了书卷。

8 When He had taken the scroll, the four living creatures and the twenty-four elders fell down before the Lamb. Each one had a harp, and they were holding golden bowls full of incense, which are the prayers of the saints.

8 他既拿了书卷，四活物和二十四位长老就俯伏在羔羊面前，各拿着琴和盛满了香的金炉；这香就是众圣徒的祈祷。

9 And they sang a new song: “Worthy are You to take the scroll and open its seals, because You were slain, and by Your blood You purchased for God those from every tribe and tongue and people and nation.

9 他们唱新歌，说： 你配拿书卷， 配揭开七印； 因为你曾被杀， 用自己的血 从各族、各方、各民、各国中买了人来， 叫他们归于 神，

10 You have made them to be a kingdom and priests to serve our God, and they will reign upon the earth.”

10 又叫他们成为国民， 作祭司归于 神， 在地上执掌王权。

11 Then I looked, and I heard the voices of many angels encircling the throne, and the living creatures and the elders. And their number was myriads of myriads and thousands of thousands.

11 我又看见且听见，宝座与活物并长老的周围有许多天使的声音；他们的数目有千千万万，

12 In a loud voice they were saying: “Worthy is the Lamb who was slain, to receive power and riches and wisdom and strength and honor and glory and blessing!”

12 大声说： 曾被杀的羔羊是配得 权柄、丰富、智慧、能力、 尊贵、荣耀、颂赞的。

13 And I heard every creature in heaven and on earth and under the earth and in the sea, and all that is in them, saying: “To Him who sits on the throne and to the Lamb be praise and honor and glory and power forever and ever!”

13 我又听见在天上、地上、地底下、沧海里，和天地间一切所有被造之物，都说： 但愿颂赞、尊贵、荣耀、权势 都归给坐宝座的和羔羊， 直到永永远远！

14 And the four living creatures said, “Amen,” and the elders fell down and worshiped.

14 四活物就说：「阿们！」众长老也俯伏敬拜。
