1 And I saw in the right hand of him that was seated on the throne a book written within and on the backside, sealed with seven seals.
2 And I saw a strong angel preaching with a loud voice, Who is worthy to open the book and to loose its seals?
3 And no one was able not in the heaven nor in the earth neither under the earth to open the book neither to look upon it.
4 And I wept much because no one was found worthy to open the book nor to read it neither to look upon it.
5 And one of the elders said unto me, Weep not: behold, the Lion of the tribe of Juda, the Root of David, who has overcome to open the book and to loose its seven seals.
6 And I saw, and, behold, in the midst of the throne and of the four animals 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.
7 And he came and took the book out of the right hand of him that was seated upon the throne.
