Revelation 5:11-13
New American Bible (Revised Edition)
11 I looked again and heard the voices of many angels who surrounded the throne and the living creatures and the elders. They were countless[a] in number,(A) 12 and they cried out in a loud voice:
“Worthy is the Lamb that was slain
to receive power and riches, wisdom and strength,
honor and glory and blessing.”
13 Then I heard every creature in heaven and on earth and under the earth and in the sea, everything in the universe, cry out:
“To the one who sits on the throne and to the Lamb
be blessing and honor, glory and might,
forever and ever.”
