1 John saw God on His big seat. In His right hand was a roll book. It had words on both sides. It had 7 seals. ✋7 2 A strong angel shouted, “Who can open the roll and break the 7 seals?” ️7❓ 3 No one in the sky, on the earth, or under the ground could open it or look in it. ⛰️ 4 I, John, cried a lot, because no one could open the roll or look in it. 5 One old leader said to me, “Do not cry. Look! The Lion from Judah, from David’s family, won. He can open the roll and the 7 seals.” 7 6 Then I saw a Lamb. This is Jesus. He stood near the big seat, with the four living ones and the old men. He looked like He had been hurt and killed. He had 7 horns and 7 eyes. The eyes are God's Holy Spirit sent out to all the earth. ✝️7️ 7 He went and took the roll from God’s right hand. ✋ 8 When He took it, the four living ones and the 24 old men fell down to praise Him. Each had a harp. Each had gold bowls with sweet smell. The sweet smell is the prayers of God’s people. ✨ 9 They sang a new song to Jesus: “You can take the roll and open it. You died for us. Your blood paid for people for God. You saved people from every group and land.” ❤️ 10 “You made them a big family and helpers for God. They will rule on earth.” 11 Then I looked and heard many, many angels around the big seat, the living ones, and the old men. There were too many to count. ✨ 12 They said in a loud voice: “The Lamb who died is worthy! Give Him power, money, wise mind, strength, honor, glory, and praise!” ✨ 13 I heard everything in the sky, on the land, under the ground, and in the sea say: “Praise to God on the big seat and to the Lamb! Give them honor, glory, and power for ever!” ⛰️ 14 The four living ones said, “Amen!” The 24 old men fell down and praised.
