J. N. Darby Translation

3
and they sing a new song before the throne, and before the four living creatures and the elders. And no one could learn that song save the hundred and forty-four thousand who were bought from the earth.

W. Kelly Translation

+
3
and they singa [asb] a new song before the throne, and before the four living creatures and the elders; and no one could learn the song but the hundred forty and four thousand that were boughtc from the earth.

WK Translation Notes

+
a
Ancient as well as modern versions, like the English, misled the KJV here as elsewhere in using the word "sung" for "sing," as it stands in the RV.
b
The insertion of "as it were," before "the new song," is by no means certain. It is omitted by many MSS.
c
"Purchased" is right here, and in the following verse, as in chapter 5:9. See note to {vi 30502}{/vi}.
