In context
AI-assisted, sourcedRevelation 5:6-10The Lamb takes the book
About Revelation 5The one on the throne holds "a book written within and on the backside, sealed with seven seals," and when no one is found worthy to open it John weeps, but an elder says, "Weep not: behold, the Lion of the tribe of Juda, the Root of David, hath prevailed to open the book." John sees "a Lamb as it had been slain," and the elders, holding "golden vials full of odours, which are the prayers of saints," sing a new song: "Thou art worthy to take the book... for thou wast slain, and hast redeemed us to God by thy blood out of every kindred, and tongue, and people, and nation." Countless angels say, "Worthy is the Lamb that was slain," and every creature gives blessing "unto him that sitteth upon the throne, and unto the Lamb for ever and ever."
