Revelation 5:2-4
Living Bible
2 A mighty angel with a loud voice was shouting out this question: “Who is worthy to break the seals on this scroll and to unroll it?” 3 But no one in all heaven or earth or from among the dead was permitted to open and read it.
4 Then I wept with disappointment[a] because no one anywhere was worthy; no one could tell us what it said.
