When the lamb had taken the scroll, the four living creatures and the twenty-four elders bowed down in front of him. Each held a harp and a gold bowl full of incense, the prayers of the saints. They sang a new song:

“You are worthy to take the scroll and open its seals,
    because you were slaughtered.
With your blood you purchased us[a] for God
    from every tribe, language, people, and nation.
10 You made us[b] a kingdom and priests for our God,
    and they will reign on the earth.”
