1 And I saw in the right hand of him that sat on the throne a book written within and on the backside, sealed with seven seals.
1 Y VI en la mano derecha del que estaba sentado sobre el trono un libro escrito de dentro y de 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 And I saw a strong angel proclaiming with a loud voice, Who is worthy to open the book, and to loose its seals?
2 Y vi un fuerte ángel predicando en alta voz: ¿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 And no man in heaven, nor in earth, neither under the earth, was able to open the book, neither to look upon it.
3 Y ninguno podía, ni en el cielo, ni en la tierra, ni debajo 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 And I wept much, because no man was found worthy to open, and to read the book, neither to look upon it.
4 Y yo lloraba mucho, porque no había sido hallado ninguno digno de abrir el libro, ni de leerlo, ni de mirarlo.
4 Then I wept much, because no one was found worthy to open the book or to look in it.
5 And one of the elders saith to me, Weep not: behold, the Lion of the tribe of Judah, the Root of David, hath prevailed to open the book, and to loose its seven seals.
5 Y uno de los ancianos me dice: 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 And I beheld, and lo, in the midst of the throne, and of the four living beings, and in the midst of the elders stood a Lamb as it had been slain, having seven horns, and seven eyes, which are the seven Spirits of God sent forth into all the earth.
6 Y miré; y he aquí en medio del trono y de los cuatro animales, y en medio de los ancianos, estaba un Cordero como inmolado, que tenía siete cuernos, y siete ojos, que son los siete Espíritus de Dios enviados en 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 And he came and took the book out of the right hand of him that sat upon the throne.
7 Y él vino, y tomó el libro de la mano derecha de aquel que estaba sentado en el trono.
7 Then he came, and he took it out of the right hand of him who sat on the throne.
8 And when he had taken the book, the four living beings, and four [and] twenty elders fell down before the Lamb, having every one of them harps, and golden vials full of odors, which are the prayers of saints.
8 Y cuando hubo tomado el libro, los cuatro animales y los veinticuatro ancianos se postraron delante del Cordero, teniendo cada uno arpas, 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 And they sung a new song, saying, Thou art worthy to take the book, and to open the seals of it: for thou wast slain, and hast redeemed us to God by thy blood out of every kindred, and language, and people, and nation;
9 Y cantaban un nuevo cántico, diciendo: Digno eres de tomar el libro, y de abrir sus sellos; porque tú fuiste inmolado, y nos has redimido para Dios con tu sangre, de todo linaje 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 reyes y sacerdotes, y reinaremos sobre la tierra.
10 and made us kings and priests to our God; and we will reign on the earth.”
11 And I beheld, and I heard the voice of many angels around the throne, and the living beings, and the elders: and the number of them was ten thousand times ten thousand, and thousands of thousands;
11 Y miré, y oí voz de muchos ángeles alrededor del trono, y de los animales, y de los ancianos; y la multitud de ellos era millones de millones,
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 Saying with a loud voice, Worthy is the Lamb that was slain to receive power, and riches, and wisdom, and strength, and honor, and glory, and blessing.
12 Que decían en alta voz: El Cordero que fué inmolado es digno de tomar el poder y riquezas y sabiduría, y fortaleza y honra y gloria y alabanza.
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 And every creature which is in heaven, and on the earth, and under the earth, and such as are in the sea, and all that are in them, I heard saying, Blessing, and honor, and glory, and power, [be] to him that sitteth upon the throne, and to the Lamb for ever and ever.
13 Y oí á toda criatura que está en el cielo, y sobre la tierra, y debajo de la tierra, y que está en el mar, y todas las cosas que en ellos están, diciendo: Al que está sentado en el trono, y al Cordero, [sea] la bendición, y la honra, y la gloria, y el poder, para siempre jamás.

14 And the four living beings said, Amen. And the four [and] twenty elders fell down and worshiped him that liveth for ever and ever.
14 Y los cuatro animales decían: Amén. Y los veinticuatro ancianos cayeron sobre sus rostros, y adoraron al que vive para siempre jamás.
14 The four living creatures said, “Amen!” Then the elders fell down and worshiped.
