1 Y ví en la mano derecha del que estaba sentado sobre el throno, un libro escrito dentro y fuera, sellado con siete sellos.
1 I saw, in the right hand of him who sat on the throne, a book written inside and outside, sealed shut with seven seals.
2 Y ví un Angel fuerte, que decía á grandes voces: ¿Quién es digno de abrir el libro, y de desatar sus sellos?
2 I saw a mighty angel proclaiming with a loud voice, “Who is worthy to open the book, and to break its seals?”
3 Y ninguno podía, ni en el Cielo, ni en la tierra, ni debaxo de la tierra abrir el libro, ni mirarlo.
3 No one in heaven above, or on the earth, or under the earth, was able to open the book or to look in it.
4 Y yo lloraba mucho, porque no fue hallado ninguno digno de abrir el libro, ni de mirarlo.
4 Then I wept much, because no one was found worthy to open the book or to look in it.
5 Y uno de los Ancianos me dixo: No llores: he aquí el León de la tribu de Judá, la raíz de David, que ha vencido para abrir el libro, y desatar sus siete sellos.
5 One 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.”
6 Y miré: y ví en medio del throno y de los quatro animales, y en medio de los Ancianos un Cordero en pie así como muerto, que tenía siete cuernos, y siete ojos, que son los siete Espíritus de Dios, enviados por toda la tierra.
6 I saw in the middle of the throne and of the four living creatures, and in the middle 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.
7 Y vino, y tomó el libro de la mano derecha del que estaba sentado en el throno.
7 Then he came, and he took it out of the right hand of him who sat on the throne.
8 Y quando hubo abierto el libro, los quatro animales, y los veinte y quatro Ancianos se postráron delante del Cordero, teniendo cada uno harpas, y copas de oro llenas de perfumes, que son las oraciones de los Santos:
8 Now 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.
9 Y cantaban un nuevo cántico, diciendo: Digno eres, Señor, de tomar el libro: y de abrir sus sellos: porque fuiste muerto, y nos has redimido para Dios con tu sangre, de toda tribu, y lengua, y pueblo, y nación:
9 They 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,
10 Y nos has hecho para nuestro Dios reyno y Sacerdotes, y reynarémos sobre la tierra.
10 and made us kings and priests to our God; and we will reign on the earth.”
11 Y ví, y oí voz de muchos Angeles al rededor del throno, y de los animales, y de los Ancianos y era el número de ellos millares de millares,
11 I looked, and I heard something like a voice of many angels around the throne, the living creatures, and the elders. The number of them was ten thousands of ten thousands, and thousands of thousands,
12 Que decían en alta voz; Digno es el Cordero, que fué muerto, de recibir virtud, y divinidad, y sabiduría, y fortaleza, y honra, y gloria, y bendición.
12 saying with a loud voice, “Worthy is the Lamb who has been killed to receive the power, wealth, wisdom, strength, honor, glory, and blessing!”
13 Y á toda criatura que hay en el Cielo, y sobre la tierra, y debaxo de la tierra, y las que hay en la mar, y quanto allí hay, oí decir á todas: Al que está sentado en el throno, y al Cordero, bendición, y honra, y gloria, y poder en los siglos de los siglos.
13 I 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!”
14 Y los quatro animales décían: Amén. Y los veinte y quatro Ancianos cayéron sobre sus rostros, y adoráron al que vive en los siglos de los siglos.
14 The four living creatures said, “Amen!” Then the elders fell down and worshiped.

What the Fathers said
Passages from the Church Fathers that expound or quote this chapter, verbatim from the public-domain Schaff edition (19th-century English translations).
How these were chosen
“Commentary” is the opening of a homily or exposition on this chapter (John Chrysostom’s homilies, Augustine’s tractates, sermons and expositions of the Psalms). “Quotes” are sentences where the edition’s own footnotes identify a quotation of a verse here, kept only when the wording matches the verse. Only works whose authorship is not in doubt are used. Psalms follow the Hebrew/English numbering (Augustine numbers them as the Septuagint does: his Psalm 50 is Psalm 51 here).
… the midst of the throne, and of the four living creatures, and in the midst of the elders, a Lamb standing as it had been slain, having seven horns, and seven eyes, which are the seven spirits of God, sent forth into all the earth." And again, he says, speaking of this very same Lamb: "And behold a white horse; …
Another example of the same is that a lion stands for Christ in the place where it is said, "The lion of the tribe of Judah hath prevailed;" and again, stands for the devil where it is written, "Your adversary the devil, as a roaring lion, walketh about seeking whom he may devour." In the same way the serpent is …

For although they are done on earth, yet nevertheless they are worthy of the Heavens.

yet both Christ and the devil are called "a lion." Christ is called "a lion:" "The Lion hath prevailed of the tribe of Judah;" and the devil is called a lion: "Know ye not that your adversary the Devil walketh about as a roaring lion, seeking whom he may devour?" Both the one and the other then is a lion; …
