Revelation 5:9-14, New Living Translation

9 And they sang a new song with these words:   "You are worthy to take the scroll and break its seals and open it. For you were killed, and your blood has ransomed people for God from every tribe and language and people and nation.

10 And you have caused them to become God's Kingdom and his priests.
And they will reign[3][Some manuscripts read they are reigning. ] on the earth."
        11 Then I looked again, and I heard the singing of thousands and millions of angels around the throne and the living beings and the elders.
12 And they sang in a mighty chorus:   "The Lamb is worthy—the Lamb who was killed. He is worthy to receive power and riches
and wisdom and strength
and honor and glory and blessing."

        13 And then I heard every creature in heaven and on earth and under the earth and in the sea. They also sang:   "Blessing and honor and glory and power belong to the one sitting on the throne
and to the Lamb forever and ever."

        14 And the four living beings said, "Amen!" And the twenty-four elders fell down and worshiped God and the Lamb.
