Revelation 5:4

So ¹  I began weeping bitterly ²  because no one was found who was worthy to open the scroll or to look into it.

I wept and wept because no-one was found who was worthy to open the scroll or look inside.

Then I began to weep greatly because no one was found worthy to open the book or to look into it;

Then I wept because no one could be found who was worthy to open the scroll and read it.

I wept and wept and wept that no one was found able to open the scroll, able to read it.

And I was very sad, because there was no one able to get the book open or to see what was in it.

And I began to weep bitterly because no one was found worthy to open the scroll or to look into it.

So I wept much, because no one was found worthy to open and read the scroll, or to look at it.

So ¹  I began weeping bitterly ²  because no one was found who was worthy to open the scroll or to look into it.

¹ tn Here καί (kai) has been translated as “so” to indicate the implied result of no one being found worthy to open the scroll.

² tn Grk “much.”
