OET (OET-RV) So I went to the angel and asked him to give me the little scroll, and he answered, “Take it and eat it. At first it’ll taste sweet like honey, but afterwards it’ll be uncomfortable in your stomach.”
OET-LV And I_went_away to the messenger, telling to_him to_give to_me the little_scroll.

Hoc ad consolationem præsentis Ecclesiæ hic apponitur, ubi major tribulatio pronuntiatur. Vade. Quod bene sciebat, intelligere monetur, ut per admonitionem alii prædicaturi informentur.

10:8-10 As in Ezekiel’s experience, the scroll tasted sweet in the mouth (Ezek 3:1-3; see Jer 15:16; see also Pss 19:10; 119:103). The experiences yet to come for God’s people would be sweet, including the victory of God’s plan and the vindication of his people. John’s sour . . . stomach resembles the effects of Ezekiel’s hard message for Israel (Ezek 3:8-9). The process of bringing God’s plan to fruition involves hardship.
