1 Wǒ kànjian zuò bǎozuò de yòushǒu zhōng yǒu shū juàn , lǐ waì dōu xiĕ zhe zì , yòng qī yìn fēng yán le .
1
Then I saw in the right hand of him who sat on the throne a scroll with writing on both sides and sealed with seven seals.
2 Wǒ yòu kànjian yī wèi dàlì de tiānshǐ , dàshēng xuānchuán shuō , yǒu shuí peì zhǎn kāi nà shū juàn , jiēkāi nà qī yìn ne .
2
And I saw a mighty angel proclaiming in a loud voice, “Who is worthy to break the seals and open the scroll?”
3 Zaì tiān shàng , dì shàng , dì dǐ xià , méiyǒu néng zhǎn kāi néng guānkàn nà shū juàn de .
3
But no one in heaven or on earth or under the earth could open the scroll or even look inside it.
4 Yīnwei méiyǒu peì zhǎn kāi , peì guānkàn nà shū juàn de , wǒ jiù dà kū .
4
I wept and wept because no one was found who was worthy to open the scroll or look inside.
5 Zhǎnglǎo zhōng yǒu yī wèi duì wǒ shuō , búyào kū . kàn nǎ , Yóudà zhīpaì zhōng de shīzi , Dàwèi de gēn , tā yǐ déshèng , néng yǐ zhǎn kāi nà shū juàn , jiēkāi nà qī yìn .
5
Then one of the elders said to me, “Do not weep! See, the Lion of the tribe of Judah, the Root of David, has triumphed. He is able to open the scroll and its seven seals.”
6 Wǒ yòu kànjian bǎozuò yǔ sì huó wù bìng zhǎnglǎo zhī zhōng , yǒu gāoyáng zhàn lì , xiàng shì beì shā guò de , yǒu qī jiǎo qī yǎn , jiù shì shén de qī líng , fèng chāiqiǎn wǎng pǔ tiān xià qù de .
6
Then I saw a Lamb, looking as if it had been slain, standing at the center of the throne, encircled by the four living creatures and the elders. The Lamb had seven horns and seven eyes, which are the seven spirits of God sent out into all the earth.
7 Zhè gāoyáng qián lái , cóng zuò bǎozuò de yòushǒu lǐ ná le shū juàn .
7
He went and took the scroll from the right hand of him who sat on the throne.
8 Tā jì ná le shū juàn , sì huó wù hé èr shí sì wèi zhǎnglǎo , jiù fǔfú zaì gāoyáng miànqián , gè ná zhe qín , hé shèng mǎn le xiāng de jīn lú . zhè xiāng jiù shì zhòng shèngtú de qídǎo .
8
And when he had taken it, the four living creatures and the twenty-four elders fell down before the Lamb. Each one had a harp and they were holding golden bowls full of incense, which are the prayers of God’s people.
9 Tāmen chàng xīn gē , shuō , nǐ peì ná shū juàn , peì jiēkāi qī yìn . yīnwei nǐ céng beì shā , yòng zìjǐ de xuè cóng gè zú gè fāng , gè mín gè guó zhōng mǎi le rén lái , jiào tāmen guīyú shén ,
9
And they sang a new song, saying: “You are worthy to take the scroll and to open its seals, because you were slain, and with your blood you purchased for God persons from every tribe and language and people and nation.
10 Yòu jiào tāmen chéngwéi guó mín , zuò jìsī , guīyú shén . zaì dì shàng zhí zhǎng wáng quán .
10
You have made them to be a kingdom and priests to serve our God, and they will reign on the earth.”
11 Wǒ yòu kànjian , qiĕ tīngjian , bǎozuò yǔ huó wù bìng zhǎnglǎo de zhōuwéi , yǒu xǔduō tiānshǐ de shēngyīn . tāmende shùmù yǒu qiā qiāwàn wàn .
11
Then I looked and heard the voice of many angels, numbering thousands upon thousands, and ten thousand times ten thousand. They encircled the throne and the living creatures and the elders.
12 Dàshēng shuō , céng beì shā de gāoyáng , shì peì de quánbǐng , fēngfù , zhìhuì , nénglì , zūnguì , róngyào , sòngzàn de .
12
In a loud voice they were saying: “Worthy is the Lamb, who was slain, to receive power and wealth and wisdom and strength and honor and glory and praise!”
13 Wǒ yòu tīngjian , zaì tiān shàng , dì shàng , dì dǐ xià , cāng hǎi lǐ , hé tiāndì jiàn yīqiè suǒ yǒu beì zào zhī wù , dōu shuō , dàn yuàn sòngzàn , zūnguì , róngyào , , dōu guī gĕi zuò bǎozuò de hé gāoyáng , zhídào yǒng yǒngyuǎn yuǎn .
13
Then I heard every creature in heaven and on earth and under the earth and on the sea, and all that is in them, saying: “To him who sits on the throne and to the Lamb be praise and honor and glory and power, for ever and ever!”
14 Sì huó wù jiù shuō , Āmén . zhòng zhǎnglǎo yĕ fǔfú jìngbaì .
14
The four living creatures said, “Amen,” and the elders fell down and worshiped.
