The lamb came up and took the scroll from the right hand of the one who was sitting on the throne.

Worthy is the lamb!

When he took the scroll, the four living creatures and the twenty-four elders fell down in front of the lamb. They each had a harp, and they each had golden bowls full of incense, which are the prayers of God’s holy people. They sing a new song, which goes like this:

from every tribe and tongue,
from every people and nation
