Revelation 5:5 Context
3And no man in heauen, nor in earth, neither vnder the earth, was able to open the booke, neither to looke thereon. 4And I wept much, because no man was found worthy to open, and to reade the booke, neither to looke thereon. 5And one of the Elders saith vnto me, Weepe not: beholde, the Lion of the tribe of Iuda, the roote of Dauid, hath preuailed to open the booke, and to loose the seuen seales thereof. 6And I beheld, and loe, in the middest of the Throne, and of the foure beastes, and in the midst of the Elders stood a Lambe as it had beene slaine, hauing seuen hornes and seuen eyes, which are the seuen Spirits of God, sent foorth into all the earth. 7And he came, and tooke the booke out of the right hand of him that sate vpon the Throne.
