10:1 The messenger and the small scroll

10Then in the vision I saw another powerful messenger coming down from heaven wrapped in a cloud and with a rainbow above his head. His face was like the sun and his feet were like pillars of fire, 2and he was holding a small opened scroll. He set his right foot down on the ocean and his left foot down on the land 3and shouted in a loud voice like a lion roaring, and when he shouted, the seven thunders spoke out in their own voices. 4When the seven thunders spoke, I was going to write down what they said but I heard a voice from heaven that said, “Keep what the seven thunders have said secret, and don’t write it down.”

5Then the messenger that I’d seen straddling the ocean and the land raised his right hand[ref] 6and made an oath by the one living through all the ages and who created heaven and everything in it and the earth and everything in it, and the sea and everything in it, saying, “There won’t be any more delay, 7but at the time when the seventh messenger will speak and blow his trumpet, then the hidden purposes of God will come to be, just like he told his slaves the prophets long ago.”

8Then the one whom I had heard speak from heaven spoke to me again, saying, “Go and get the open scroll from the hand of the messenger who is straddling the ocean and the land.”[ref] 9So 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.” 10So I took that little scroll from the angel’s hand and ate it, and it tasted sweet like honey, but my stomach hurt afterwards 11and they told me, “You have to speak out God’s message about many nations and people groups and language groups and kings.”


10And I_saw another messenger mighty, coming_down out_of the heaven, having_been_clothed in_a_cloud, and the rainbow on the head of_him, and the face of_him like the sun, and the feet of_him like pillars of_fire, 2and having in the hand of_him a_little_scroll having_been_opened_up.
And he_put the foot of_him the right on the sea, and his the_left on the earth,
3and he_cried_out with_a_voice loud as a_lion is_roaring.
And when he_cried_out, spoke the seven thunders the of_themselves voices.
4And when spoke the seven thunders, I_was_going to_be_writing, but I_heard a_voice out_of the heaven saying:
Seal what things spoke the seven thunders, and not them you_may_write.
5And the messenger, whom I_saw having_stood on the sea and on the land, lifted_up the hand of_him the right to the heaven, 6and swore to to_the one living to the ages of_the ages:
who created the heaven and the things in it, and the earth and the things in it, and the sea and the things in it, that time no_longer will_be.
7But in the days of_the voice of_the messenger, seventh whenever he_may_be_going to_be_trumpeting, also was_finished the mystery of_ the _god, as he_good_message_preached to_the of_himself slaves, the prophets.
8And the voice that I_heard out_of the heaven, again was speaking with me, and saying:
Be_going, take the scroll which having_been_opened_up in the hand of_the messenger, which having_stood on the sea and on the land.
9And I_went_away to the messenger, telling to_him to_give to_me the little_scroll.
And he_is_saying to_me:
Take and devour it, and it_will_be_making_bitter of_you the stomach, but in the mouth of_you, it_will_be sweet as honey.
10And I_took the little_scroll out_of the hand of_the messenger, and I_devoured it, and it_was in the mouth of_me as honey sweet, and when I_ate it, was_made_bitter the stomach of_me.
11And they_are_saying to_me:
It_is_fitting you again to_prophesy concerning peoples, and nations, and tongues, and kings many.
