1Videl som, že ten, čo sedí na tróne, drží v pravej ruke knihu popísanú zvnútra i zvonka a zapečatenú siedmimi pečaťami.2Vtom som zazrel mohutného anjela, ktorý zvolal silným hlasom: „Kto je hodný, aby otvoril túto knihu a rozlomil jej pečate?“3Ale nikto na nebi ani na zemi, ani pod zemou nemohol tú knihu otvoriť a nazrieť do nej.4Veľmi som plakal, že sa nenašiel nik, kto by bol hodný otvoriť tú knihu a nazrieť do nej.5Ale jeden zo starcov mi povedal: „Neplač! Ježiš, Lev z Júdovho kmeňa, potomok kráľa Dávida, zvíťazil! On pečate rozlomí a knihu otvorí.“6Vtom som zazrel, že uprostred medzi trónom a tými štyrmi bytosťami a starcami stojí Baránok, ten obetovaný. Mal sedem rohov a sedem očí, to znamená sedem Božích duchov, poslaných do celého sveta.7Pristúpil k tomu, čo sedel na tróne, a vzal knihu z jeho pravice.8V tej chvíli štyri bytosti a dvadsaťštyri starcov padlo pred Baránkom na kolená. Každý mal harfu a zlatú nádobu naplnenú vôňou kadidla, čo sú modlitby Božieho ľudu.9A spievali novú pieseň:Si hodný prijať tú knihua rozlomiť jej pečate,lebo si bol obetovanýa svojou krvou si Bohu vykúpil ľudízo všetkých kmeňov, jazykov, národov a rás.10Urobil si z nich kráľov a kňazovnášmu Bohua tí budú vládnuť nad celým svetom.11A videl som, ako okolo trónu bytostí a starcov stoja myriady anjelov12a volajú silným hlasom:Hoden je Baránok,ten obetovaný,prijať moc, bohatstvo, múdrosť,silu, česť, slávu i chválu!13A všetko tvorstvo na nebi, na zemi, pod zemou i na mori i všetko, čo je v nich, počul som volať:Tomu, ktorý sedí na tróne, i Baránkovipatrí chvála, česť, moc i slávana veky vekov!14A tie štyri bytosti povedali: „Amen!“ Starci padli na kolená a klaňali sa.

The Scroll and the Lamb
1Then I saw in the right hand of him who was seated on the throne a scroll written within and on the back, sealed with seven seals.2And I saw a mighty angel proclaiming with a loud voice, “Who is worthy to open the scroll and break its seals?”3And no one in heaven or on earth or under the earth was able to open the scroll or to look into it,4and I began to weep loudly because no one was found worthy to open the scroll or to look into it.5And one of the elders said to me, “Weep no more; behold, the Lion of the tribe of Judah, the Root of David, has conquered, so that he can open the scroll and its seven seals.”6And between the throne and the four living creatures and among the elders I saw a Lamb standing, as though it had been slain, with seven horns and with seven eyes, which are the seven spirits of God sent out into all the earth.7And he went and took the scroll from the right hand of him who was seated on the throne.8And when he had taken the scroll, the four living creatures and the twenty-four elders fell down before the Lamb, each holding a harp, and golden bowls full of incense, which are the prayers of the saints.9And they sang a new song, saying, “Worthy are you to take the scroll and to open its seals, for you were slain, and by your blood you ransomed people for God from every tribe and language and people and nation,10and you have made them a kingdom and priests to our God, and they shall reign on the earth.”11Then I looked, and I heard around the throne and the living creatures and the elders the voice of many angels, numbering myriads of myriads and thousands of thousands,12saying with a loud voice, “Worthy is the Lamb who was slain, to receive power and wealth and wisdom and might and honor and glory and blessing!”13And I heard every creature in heaven and on earth and under the earth and in the sea, and all that is in them, saying, “To him who sits on the throne and to the Lamb be blessing and honor and glory and might forever and ever!”14And the four living creatures said, “Amen!” and the elders fell down and worshiped.
