Aabenbaringen 10
1 Og jeg saa en anden vældig Engel komme ned fra Himmelen, svøbt i en Sky, og Regnbuen var paa hans Hoved, og hans Ansigt var som Solen og hans Fødder som Ildsøjler,
[In the vision] I saw another mighty angel that was coming down out of heaven. A cloud [surrounded him]. There was a rainbow over his head. His face [shone] [SIM] like the sun. His legs looked like pillars of fire.
2 og han havde i sin Haand en lille aabnet Bog. Og han satte sin højre Fod paa Havet og den venstre paa Jorden.
He had in his hand a small scroll that was open. He set his right foot on the ocean and his left foot on the land.
3 Og han raabte med høj Røst, som en Løve brøler; og da han havde raabt, lode de syv Tordener deres Røster høre.
He shouted something with a loud voice, a voice like the roar of a lion. When he shouted this, it thundered seven [times], speaking [words that I could understand].
4 Og da de syv Tordener havde talt, vilde jeg til at skrive; og jeg hørte en Røst fra Himmelen, som sagde: Forsegl, hvad de syv Tordener talte, og nedskriv det ikke!
When it thundered [like that], I was about to write [the words that I] heard, but a voice from heaven said to me, “Keep secret what the thunder said! Do not write it down!”
5 Og Engelen, som jeg saa staa paa Havet og paa Jorden, opløftede sin højre Haand imod Himmelen
Then the angel whom I had seen standing on the ocean and the land raised his right hand toward heaven,
6 og svor ved ham, som lever i Evighedernes Evigheder, som har skabt Himmelen, og hvad deri er, og Jorden, og hvad derpaa er, og Havet, og hvad deri er, at der ikke mere skal gives Tid; (aiōn g165)
and he asked the one who lives forever, the one who created heaven and everything that is in it, [who created] the earth and everything that is in it, and [who created] the ocean and everything that is in it, to affirm that what he said was true. [He said that he] would surely no longer delay [what he had planned to do]. (aiōn g165)
7 men i de Dage, da den syvende Engels Røst lyder, naar han skal til at basune, da er Guds skjulte Raad fuldbyrdet saaledes, som han har forkyndt sine Tjenere Profeterne.
He said that when the time [came] for the seventh angel to blow his trumpet, [he] would complete what God had secretly planned, just like he announced [long ago] to his servants, the prophets.
8 Og den Røst, som jeg havde hørt fra Himmelen, talte atter med mig og sagde: Gaa hen, tag den lille aabnede Bog, som er i den Engels Haand, der staar paa Havet og paa Jorden.
The one whose voice I had heard from heaven spoke to me again. He said, “Go and take the open scroll from the hand of the angel who is standing on the ocean and on the land.”
9 Og jeg gik hen til Engelen og sagde til ham, at han skulde give mig den lille Bog. Og han sagde til mig: Tag og nedsvælg den! og den vil volde Smerte i din Bug, men i din Mund vil den være sød som Honning.
So I went to the angel and asked him to give me the little scroll. He said to me, “Take it and eat it. In your mouth it will [taste] sweet like honey, but it will make your stomach bitter.”
10 Og jeg tog den lille Bog af Engelens Haand og nedsvælgede den; og den var i min Mund sød som Honning, men da jeg havde nedsvælget den, følte jeg Smerte i min Bug.
I took the little scroll from the angel’s hand and ate it. In my mouth it [tasted] sweet like honey, but when I had eaten it, [it] made my stomach turn sour.
11 Og man sagde til mig: Du bør igen profetere om mange Folk og Folkeslag og Tungemaal og Konger.
The one whose [voice spoke from heaven said to me], “You must (prophesy again/proclaim again what I will reveal to you) about many people-[groups], many nations, [speakers of] many languages [MTY], and many kings.”
