Revelation 5:3-5

Holman Christian Standard Bible

³ But no one in heaven or on earth or under the earth was able to open the scroll or even to look in it. ⁴ And I cried and cried because no one was found worthy to open^[a] the scroll or even to look in it.

⁵ Then one of the elders said to me, “Stop crying. Look! The Lion from the tribe of Judah,^(A) the Root of David,^(B) has been victorious^(C) so that He may open the scroll and^[b] its seven seals.”
