Revelation 5:9 in Context — Revelation 5

7 Il vint, et il prit le livre de la main droite de celui qui était assis sur le trône.

8 Quand il eut pris le livre, les quatre êtres vivants et les vingt-quatre vieillards se prosternèrent devant l’agneau, tenant chacun une harpe et des coupes d’or remplies de parfums, qui sont les prières des saints.

9 Et ils chantaient un cantique nouveau, en disant: Tu es digne de prendre le livre, et d’en ouvrir les sceaux; car tu as été immolé, et tu as racheté pour Dieu par ton sang des hommes de toute tribu, de toute langue, de tout peuple, et de toute nation;

10 tu as fait d’eux un royaume et des sacrificateurs pour notre Dieu, et ils régneront sur la terre.

11 Je regardai, et j’entendis la voix de beaucoup d’anges autour du trône et des êtres vivants et des vieillards, et leur nombre était des myriades de myriades et des milliers de milliers.
