5 And I saw until twenty-three shepherds had pastured and completed their terms fifty-eight times. 6 But behold, lambs were born from those white sheep, and they began to open their eyes and see, and cried out to the sheep. 7 Yes, they cried to them, but they did not listen to what they said to them, but were extremely deaf, and their eyes were exceedingly blinded. 8 And I saw in the vision how the ravens flew upon those lambs and took one of the lambs, and dashed the sheep in pieces and devoured them. 9 And I saw until horns grew upon those lambs, and the ravens cast down their horns; and I saw until a great horn sprouted from one of those sheep, and their eyes were opened. 10 And it looked at them, their eyes opened, and it cried to the sheep, and the rams saw it and all ran to it.

2 And I saw a powerful angel proclaiming in a loud voice: “Who is worthy to open the scroll and to break its seals?” 3 But no one in heaven or on earth or under the earth was able to open the scroll or look into it. 4 So I began weeping bitterly because no one was found who was worthy to open the scroll or to look into it. 5 Then one of the elders said to me, “Stop weeping! Look, the Lion of the tribe of Judah, the root of David, has conquered; thus he can open the scroll and its seven seals.” 6 Then I saw standing in the middle of the throne and of the four living creatures, and in the middle of the elders, a Lamb that appeared to have been killed. He had seven horns and seven eyes, which are the seven spirits of God sent out into all the earth. 7 Then he came and took the scroll from the right hand of the one who was seated on the throne, 8 and when he had taken the scroll, the four living creatures and the twenty-four elders threw themselves to the ground before the Lamb. Each of them had a harp and golden bowls full of incense (which are the prayers of the saints).
