Otkrivenje 10

1 I vidjeh drugoga jednog, snažnog anđela: silazio s neba ogrnut oblakom, na glavi mu duga, lice mu kao sunce, a noge kao ognjeno stupovlje;

Then I saw another mighty angel coming down from heaven, wrapped in a cloud, with a rainbow above his head. His face was like the sun, and his legs were like pillars of fire.

2 u ruci drži otvorenu knjižicu. I zakorači desnom nogom na more, lijevom na zemlju pa povika iza glasa kao kad lav riče.

He held in his hand a small scroll, which lay open. He placed his right foot on the sea and his left foot on the land.

3 I kad povika, oglasi se sedam gromova tutnjavom.

Then he cried out in a loud voice like the roar of a lion. And when he cried out, the seven thunders sounded their voices.

4 A kad se oglasi sedam gromova, htjedoh pisati, ali začujem glas s neba: “Zapečati to što prozbori sedam gromova! Toga ne piši!”

When the seven thunders had spoken, I was about to put it in writing. But I heard a voice from heaven saying, “Seal up what the seven thunders have said, and do not write it down.”

5 I onaj anđeo što ga vidjeh gdje stoji na moru i zemlji, podiže k nebu desnicu

Then the angel I had seen standing on the sea and on the land lifted up his right hand to heaven.

6 i zakle se Živim u vijeke vjekova, koji stvori nebo i sve što je na njemu, zemlju i sve što je na njoj, more i sve što je u njemu: “Neće više biti vremena! (aiōn g165)

And he swore by Him who lives forever and ever, who created heaven and everything in it, the earth and everything in it, and the sea and everything in it: “There will be no more delay! (aiōn g165)

7 Nego - u dane kad se oglasi sedmi anđeo, čim zatrubi, dovršit će se otajstvo Božje kao što on to navijesti slugama svojim prorocima.”

But in the days of the voice of the seventh angel, when he is about to sound his trumpet, the mystery of God will be fulfilled, just as He proclaimed to His servants the prophets.”

8 I glas što ga začuh s neba opet prozbori sa mnom: “Idi, uzmi otvorenu knjigu iz ruke anđela što stoji na moru i na zemlji!”

Then the voice that I had heard from heaven spoke to me again, saying, “Go, take the small scroll that lies open in the hand of the angel standing on the sea and on the land.”

9 Pristupim k anđelu i zamolim ga da mi dade knjižicu. A on će mi: “Uzmi je i progutaj! Zagorčit će ti utrobu, ali će ti u ustima biti slatka kao med.”

And I went to the angel and said, “Give me the small scroll.” “Take it and eat it,” he said. “It will make your stomach bitter, but in your mouth it will be as sweet as honey.”

10 Uzeh knjižicu iz ruke anđelove i progutah je. I bijaše mi u ustima kao med slatka, ali kad je progutah, zagorči mi utrobu.

So I took the small scroll from the angel’s hand and ate it; and it was as sweet as honey in my mouth, but when I had eaten it, my stomach turned bitter.

11 I rečeno mi je: “Treba da ponovno prorokuješ proti pucima i narodima i kraljevima mnogim!”

And they told me, “You must prophesy again about many peoples and nations and tongues and kings.”
