< 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;
I saw another mighty angel coming down out of the sky, clothed with a cloud. A rainbow was on his head. His face was like the sun, and his legs 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 had in his hand a little open scroll. He set his right foot on the sea, and his left on the land.
3 I kad povika, oglasi se sedam gromova tutnjavom.
He shouted with a loud voice, as a lion roars. When he shouted, the seven thunders uttered 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 sounded, I was about to write; but I heard a voice from the sky saying, "Seal up the things which the seven thunders said, and do not write them."
5 I onaj anđeo što ga vidjeh gdje stoji na moru i zemlji, podiže k nebu desnicu
The angel whom I saw standing on the sea and on the land lifted up his right hand to the sky,
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 )
and swore by him who lives forever and ever, who created heaven and the things that are in it, the earth and the things that are in it, and the sea and the things that are in it, that there will no longer be delay, (aiōn )
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, then the mystery of God is finished, as he declared 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!”
The voice which I heard from heaven, again speaking with me, said, "Go, take the scroll which is open in the hand of the angel who stands 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.”
I went to the angel, telling him to give me the little scroll. He said to me, "Take it, and eat it up. 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.
I took the little scroll out of the angel's hand, and ate it up. It was as sweet as honey in my mouth. When I had eaten it, my stomach was made bitter.
11 I rečeno mi je: “Treba da ponovno prorokuješ proti pucima i narodima i kraljevima mnogim!”
They told me, "You must prophesy again about many peoples, nations, languages, and kings."
