新约--启示录(Revelation)--第 5 章
5:1 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。
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.
5:2 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。
And I saw a strong angel proclaiming with a loud voice, Who is worthy to open the book, and to loose the seals thereof?
5:3 在天上，地上，地底下，没有能展开能观看那书卷的。
And no man in heaven, nor in earth, neither under the earth, was able to open the book, neither to look thereon.
5:4 因为没有配展开，配观看那书卷的，我就大哭。
And I wept much, because no man was found worthy to open and to read the book, neither to look thereon.
5:5 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。
And one of the elders saith unto me, Weep not: behold, the Lion of the tribe of Juda, the Root of David, hath prevailed to open the book, and to loose the seven seals thereof.
5:6 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。
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.
5:7 这羔羊前来，从坐宝座的右手里拿了书卷。
And he came and took the book out of the right hand of him that sat upon the throne.
5:8 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。
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.
5:9 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，
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;
5:10 又叫他们成为国民，作祭司，归于神。在地上执掌王权。
And hast made us unto our God kings and priests: and we shall reign on the earth.
5:11 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。
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;
5:12 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。
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.
5:13 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。
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.
5:14 四活物就说，阿们。众长老也俯伏敬拜。
And the four beasts said, Amen. And the four and twenty elders fell down and worshipped him that liveth for ever and ever.
