1. Then I saw a scroll in the right hand of the One sitting on the throne. The scroll had writing on both sides and was kept closed with seven seals.
2. And I saw a powerful angel calling in a loud voice, “Who is worthy to break the seals and open the scroll?”
3. But there was no one in heaven or on earth or under the earth who could open the scroll or look inside it.
4. I cried bitterly because there was no one who was worthy to open the scroll or look inside.
