¹I saw, in the right hand of him who sat on the throne, a book written inside and outside, sealed shut with seven seals.

¹In videl sem v desnici sedečega na prestolu knjigo popisano znotraj in zadaj, zapečateno s sedmimi pečati.

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

²In videl sem mogočnega angela, oznanjujočega z velikim glasom: Kdo je vreden odpreti knjigo in odtrgati pečate njene?

³No one in heaven above, or on the earth, or under the earth, was able to open the book, or to look in it.

³In nihče ni mogel ne v nebesih, ne na zemlji, ne pod zemljo odpreti knjige, ne gledati je.

⁴And I wept much, because no one was found worthy to open the book, or to look in it.

⁴In jaz sem jokal silno, da ni bil nihče za vrednega spoznan odpreti knjige, ne gledati je.

⁵One of the elders said to me, “Don’t weep. Behold, the Lion who is of the tribe of Judah, the Root of David, has overcome; he who opens the book and its seven seals.”

⁵In eden izmed starejšin mi reče: Ne jokaj; glej, zmagal je lev, ki je iz roda Judovega, korenina Davidova, da odpre knjigo in sedmere pečate njene.

⁶I saw in the midst of the throne and of the four living creatures, and in the midst of the elders, a Lamb standing, as though it had been slain, having seven horns, and seven eyes, which are the seven Spirits of God, sent out into all the earth.

⁶In videl sem sredi prestola in četverih živali in sredi starejšin Jagnje stoječe, kakor zaklano, ki je imelo sedem rogov in očes sedem, katera so sedmeri Duhovi Božji, poslani na vso zemljo.

⁷Then he came, and he took it out of the right hand of him who sat on the throne.

⁷In pride in vzame knjigo iz desnice sedečega na prestolu.

⁸Now when he had taken the book, the four living creatures and the twenty-four elders fell down before the Lamb, each one having a harp, and golden bowls full of incense, which are the prayers of the saints.

⁸In ko je vzelo knjigo, padejo četvere živali in štiriindvajseteri starejšine pred Jagnjetom, imajoč vsak strune in zlate čaše, polne kadil, ki so molitve svetnikov.

⁹They sang a new song, saying, “You are worthy to take the book, and to open its seals: for you were killed, and bought us for God with your blood, out of every tribe, language, people, and nation,

⁹In pojo pesem novo, govoreč: Vreden si prejeti knjigo in odpreti pečate njene; kajti bilo si zaklano in si jih odkupilo Bogu s krvjo svojo iz vsakega rodu in jezika in ljudstva in naroda,

¹⁰and made us kings and priests to our God, and we will reign on earth.”

¹⁰in si jih storilo našemu Bogu v kraljestvo in za duhovnike, in kraljevali bodo na zemlji.

¹¹I saw, and I heard something like a voice of many angels around the throne, the living creatures, and the elders; and the number of them was ten thousands of ten thousands, and thousands of thousands;

¹¹In videl sem in slišal sem glas mnogih angelov okrog prestola in živali in starejšin, in njih število je bilo miriad miriade in tisočev tisoči,

¹²saying with a loud voice, “Worthy is the Lamb who has been killed to receive the power, wealth, wisdom, strength, honor, glory, and blessing!”

¹²govorečih z velikim glasom: Vredno je Jagnje, ki je bilo zaklano, prejeti moč in bogastvo in modrost in krepkost in čast in slavo in blagoslov.

¹³I heard every created thing which is in heaven, on the earth, under the earth, on the sea, and everything in them, saying, “To him who sits on the throne, and to the Lamb be the blessing, the honor, the glory, and the dominion, forever and ever! Amen! TR omits “Amen!” ”

¹³In vsako stvar, ki je v nebesih in na zemlji in pod zemljo in na morju, in vse, kar je v njih, sem čul govoreče: Sedečemu na prestolu in Jagnjetu blagoslov in čast in slava in moč na vekov veke!In četvere živali so rekle: Amen! In štiriindvajseteri starejšine so padli in so molili.

¹⁴The four living creatures said, “Amen!” The TR adds “twenty-four” elders fell down and worshiped. TR adds “the one living forever and ever”

¹⁴In četvere živali so rekle: Amen! In štiriindvajseteri starejšine so padli in so molili.
