And when the Lamb took the scroll, the four living creatures and the twenty-four elders bowed down before the Lamb. Each one had a harp and gold bowls full of incense (these are the prayers of the saints). And they sang a new song, saying:

You are worthy to take the scroll and to open its seals,
    because you were slain,
    and you bought us[a] for God with your blood
        out of every tribe and language and people and nation.
10 You made them[b] to be a kingdom and priests for our God,
and they will reign on the earth.
