And I wept much, because no man was found worthy to open and to read the book, neither to look thereon.

Verse 4 is found in chapter 5 of Revelation. In the right hand of the one seated on the throne appears a scroll written on both sides and sealed with seven seals. The document represents a determined reality that no one can open, and the inability to find anyone worthy causes John to weep. Then one of the elders announces the Lion of the tribe of Judah and the Root of David as the conqueror. The messianic images of Genesis 49 and Isaiah 11 converge to identify Christ as heir to the royal promises.

Und ich weinte sehr, daß niemand würdig erfunden ward, das Buch aufzutun und zu lesen noch hineinzusehen.
Y yo lloraba mucho, porque no había sido hallado ninguno digno de abrir el libro, ni de leerlo, ni de mirarlo.
Yo lloraba mucho, porque no se encontró a nadie digno de abrir el rollo ni mirarlo.
Et je pleurai beaucoup de ce que personne ne fut trouvé digne d'ouvrir le livre ni de le regarder.
Ed io piangeva forte, perciocchè niuno era stato trovato degno di aprire, e di leggere il libro; e non pur di riguardarlo.
E eu chorava muito, porque ninguém fora achado digno de abrir o livro, nem de o ler, nem de olhar para ele.
因為沒有人配展開、閱覽那書卷,我就大哭。
