And then the Lamb went and took the scroll from the right hand of the one sitting on the throne. When he took the scroll, the four living creatures and the 24 elders fell down in worship before the Lamb. Each of the 24 elders held a harp and gold bowls full of incense, which are the prayers of God’s holy people. And they sang this new song: “You are worthy to take the scroll and to open its seals because you were slain, and with your blood you purchased for God persons from every tribe, language, people, and nation. You made them a kingdom and priests (a priestly kingdom) to serve our God, and they will reign on the earth!”
