New Living Translation

6 Then I saw a Lamb that looked as if it had been slaughtered, but it was now standing between the throne and the four living beings and among the twenty-four elders. He had seven horns and seven eyes, which represent the sevenfold Spirit of God that is sent out into every part of the earth. 7 He stepped forward and took the scroll from the right hand of the one sitting on the throne. 8 And when he took the scroll, the four living beings and the twenty-four elders fell down before the Lamb. Each one had a harp, and they held gold bowls filled with incense, which are the prayers of God’s people. 9 And they sang a new song with these words:

“You are worthy to take the scroll
and break its seals and open it.
For you were slaughtered, and your blood has ransomed people for God
from every tribe and language and people and nation.

10 And you have caused them to become
a Kingdom of priests for our God.
And they will reign on the earth.”

New Living Translation

17 The Lord is righteous in everything he does;
he is filled with kindness.

18 The Lord is close to all who call on him,
yes, to all who call on him in truth.

19 He grants the desires of those who fear him;
he hears their cries for help and rescues them.

Psalm 2 v 1-4 (from the Archive)

1 Why are the nations so angry?
Why do they waste their time with futile plans?

2 The kings of the earth prepare for battle;
the rulers plot together
against the Lord
and against his anointed one.

3 “Let us break their chains,” they cry,
“and free ourselves from slavery to God.”

4 But the one who rules in heaven laughs.
The Lord scoffs at them.
