In context
5Then one of the elders said to me, “Do not weep. Look, the Lion of the tribe of Judah, the Root of David, has triumphed, and he is able to open the scroll and its seven seals.” 6Then I saw, standing in the middle of the throne, between the four living creatures and the elders, a Lamb, looking as if it had been slaughtered. It had seven horns and seven eyes, which are the seven Spirits of God sent out into all the earth. 7He went and took the scroll from the right hand of the one seated on the throne. 8When he took the scroll, the four living creatures and the twenty-four elders fell down before the Lamb. Each held a harp, and golden bowls full of incense, which are the prayers of the saints, 9and they sang a new song: “You are worthy to take the scroll and to open its seals, for you were slaughtered, and with your blood you purchased for God people from every tribe and tongue and people and nation.
