Revelation 5:1-5 ▼

1 Then I saw in the right hand of Him who sits on the throne a scroll written inside and on the back, sealed up with seven seals.

2 Then I saw a strong angel proclaiming with a loud voice, “Who is worthy to open the scroll and to break its seals?”

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

4 Then I was crying greatly because no one was found worthy to open the scroll or to look into it.

5 And one of the elders said to me, “Stop crying! Behold, the Lion that is from the tribe of Judah, the Root of David, has overcome so as to open the scroll and its seven seals.”
