Revelation 5:1-5 And I saw in the right hand of him that sat on the throne a book written within and without, close sealed with seven seals.

JPS_ASV_Byz⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹ And I saw in the right hand of him that sat on the throne a book written within and without, close sealed with seven seals. ² And I saw a strong angel proclaiming with a great voice, Who is worthy to open the book, and to loose the seals thereof? ³ And no one in the heaven above, or on the earth, or under the earth, was able to open the book, or to look thereon. ⁴ And I wept much, because no one was found worthy to open the book, or to look thereon: ⁵ and one of the elders saith unto me, Weep not, behold, the Lion that is of the tribe of Judah, the Root of David, hath overcome to open the book and the seven seals thereof.
