Revelation 5:5-7
American Standard Version
5 and one of the elders saith unto me, Weep not; behold, the Lion that is of the tribe of Judah, the Root of David, hath overcome to open the book and the seven seals thereof. 6 And I saw [a]in the midst of the throne and of the four living creatures, and in the midst of the elders, a Lamb standing, as though it had been slain, having seven horns, and seven eyes, which are the [b]seven Spirits of God, sent forth into all the earth. 7 And he came, and he [c]taketh it out of the right hand of him that sat on the throne.
