Rev 10
1
And I saw another strong angel coming down out of heaven, arrayed with a cloud; and
the rainbow was upon his head, and his face was as the sun, and his feet as pillars
of fire;
2
and he had in his hand a little book open: and he set his right foot upon the sea,
and his left upon the earth;
3
and he cried with a great voice, as a lion roars: and when he cried, the seven thunders
uttered their voices.
4
And when the seven thunders uttered [their voices], I was about to write: and I heard
a voice from heaven saying, Seal up the things which the seven thunders uttered, and
write them not.
5
And the angel that I saw standing upon the sea and upon the earth lifted up his right
hand to heaven,
6
and swore by him whom lives for ever and ever, who created the heaven and the things
that are therein, and the earth and the things that are therein, and the sea and the
things that are therein, that there shall be delay no longer:
7
but in the days of the voice of the seventh angel, when he is about to sound, then
is finished they mystery of God, according to the good tidings which he declared to
his servants the prophets.
8
And the voice which I heard from heaven, [I heard it] again speaking with me, and
saying, Go, take the book which is open in the hand of the angel that stands upon
the sea and upon the earth.
9
And I went to the angel, saying to him whom he should give me the little book. And
he says to me, Take it, and eat it up; and it shall make your belly bitter, but in
your mouth it shall be sweet as honey.
10
And I took the little book out of the angel`s hand, and ate it up; and it was in my
mouth sweet as honey: and when I had eaten it, my belly was made bitter.
11
And they say to me, You must prophesy again over many peoples and nations and tongues
and kings.
