Chapter 5

5:1 [hgb]  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 。
    [kjv]  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.
    [bbe]  And I saw in the right hand of him who was seated on the high seat, a book with writing inside it and on the back, shut with seven stamps of wax.
5:2 [hgb]  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 ？
    [kjv]  And I saw a strong angel proclaiming with a loud voice, Who is worthy¹ to open the book, and to loose the seals thereof?
    [bbe]  And I saw a strong angel saying in a loud voice, Who is able to make the book open, and to undo² its stamps?
5:3 [hgb]  在 天 上 ， 地 上 ， 地 底 下 ， 没 有 能 展 开 能 观 看 那 书 卷 的 。
    [kjv]  And no man in heaven, nor in earth, neither under the earth, was able to open the book, neither to look thereon.
    [bbe]  And no one in heaven, or on the earth, or under the earth, was able to get the book open, or to see what was in it.
5:4 [hgb]  因 为 没 有 配 展 开 ， 配 观 看 那 书 卷 的 ， 我 就 大 哭 。
    [kjv]  And I wept much, because no man was found worthy to open and to read the book, neither to look thereon.
    [bbe]  And I was very sad, because there was no one able to get the book open or to see what was in it.
5:5 [hgb]  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 。
    [kjv]  And one of the elders saith unto me, Weep not: behold³, the Lion of the tribe of Juda, the Root of David, hath prevailed to open the book, and to loose the seven seals thereof.
    [bbe]  And one of the rulers said to me, Do not be sad: see, the Lion of the tribe of Judah, the Root of David, has overcome, and has power to undo the book and its seven stamps.
5:6 [hgb]  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 。
    [kjv]  And I beheld⁴, 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 slain⁵, having seven horns and seven eyes, which are the seven Spirits of God sent forth⁶ into all the earth.
    [bbe]  And I saw in the middle of the high seat and of the four beasts, and in the middle of the rulers, a Lamb in his place, which seemed as if it had been put to death, having seven horns and seven eyes, which are the seven Spirits of God, sent out into all the earth.

    [kjv]  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 harps⁷, and golden vials full of odours, which are the prayers of saints.
    [bbe]  And when he had taken the book, the four beasts and the four and twenty rulers went down on their faces before the Lamb, having every one an instrument of music, and gold vessels⁸ full of perfumes, which are the prayers of the saints.
5:9 [hgb]  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 ，
    [kjv]  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 redeemed⁹ us to God by thy blood out of every kindred, and tongue, and people, and nation;
    [bbe]  And their voices are sounding in a new song, saying, It is right for you to take the book and to make it open: for you were put to death and have made an offering to God of your blood for men of every tribe, and language, and people, and nation,
5:10 [hgb]  又 叫 他 们 成 为 国 民 ， 作 祭 司 ， 归 于 神 。 在 地 上 执 掌 王 权 。
    [kjv]  And hast made us unto our God kings and priests: and we shall reign¹⁰ on the earth.
    [bbe]  And have made them a kingdom and priests to our God, and they are ruling on the earth.
5:11 [hgb]  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 。

    [kjv]  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 blessing¹¹.
    [bbe]  Saying with a great voice, It is right to give to the Lamb who was put to death, power and wealth and wisdom and strength and honour and glory and blessing.
5:13 [hgb]  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 。
    [kjv]  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.
    [bbe]  And to my ears came the voice of everything in heaven and on earth and under the earth and in the sea, and of all things which are in them, saying, To him who is seated on the high seat, and to the Lamb, may blessing and honour and glory and power be given for ever and ever.
5:14 [hgb]  四 活 物 就 说 ， 阿 们 。 众 长 老 也 俯 伏 敬 拜 。
    [kjv]  And the four beasts said, Amen. And the four and twenty elders fell down and worshipped him that liveth for ever and ever.
