Revelation 5:1-5
The Book with Seven Seals
1 I saw (a)in the right hand of Him who (A)sat on the throne a (b)(B)book written inside and on the back, (C)sealed up with seven seals.
2 And I saw a (D)strong angel proclaiming with a loud voice, “Who is worthy to open the (c)book and to break its seals?”
3 And no one (E)in heaven or on the earth or under the earth was able to open the (d)book or to look into it.
4 Then I began to weep greatly because no one was found worthy to open the (e)book or to look into it;
5 and one of the elders *said to me, “Stop weeping; behold, the (F)Lion that is (G)from the tribe of Judah, the (H)Root of David, has overcome so as to open the (f)book and its seven seals.”
