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 strong angel coming down from Heaven. He was robed in a cloud, and over his head was the rainbow. His face was like the sun, and his feet resembled 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.

In his hand he held a small scroll unrolled; and, planting his right foot on the sea and his left foot on the land,

3 I kad povika, oglasi se sedam gromova tutnjavom.

he cried out in a loud voice which resembled the roar of a lion. And when he had cried out, each of the seven peals of thunder uttered its own message.

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

And when the seven peals of thunder had spoken, I was about to write down what they had said; but I heard a voice from Heaven which told me to keep secret all that the seven peals of thunder had said, and not write it down.

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

Then the angel that I saw standing on the sea and on the land, lifted his right hand toward 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 in the name of Him who lives until the Ages of the Ages, the Creator of Heaven and all that is in it, of the earth and all that is in it, and of the sea and all that is in it, he solemnly declared, (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.”

"There shall be no further delay; but in the days when the seventh angel blows his trumpet--when he begins to do so--then the secret purposes of God are realized, in accordance with the good news which He gave 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 which I had heard speaking from Heaven once more addressed me. It said, "Go and take the little book which lies open in the hand of the angel who is 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.”

So I went to the angel and asked him to give me the little book. "Take it," he said, "and eat the whole of it. You will find it bitter when you have eaten it, although in your mouth it will taste 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 roll out of the angel's hand and ate the whole of it; and in my mouth it was as sweet as honey, but when I had eaten it I found it very bitter.

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

And a voice said to me, "You must prophesy yet further concerning peoples, nations, languages, and many kings."
