Revelation 10

1 Then I saw another powerful angel descending from heaven, with a cloud wrapped around him and with a rainbow over his head. His face looked like the sun, and his feet like pillars of fire.

AND I saw another mighty angel descending from heaven, clothed (with a) cloud, and the bow of the cloud (was) upon his head; and his countenance was as the sun, and his feet as columns of fire.

2 He was holding a small scroll that had already been opened. He placed his right foot on the sea, and this left foot on the land.

And he had in his hand an open book; and he set his right foot upon the sea, but the left upon the land,

3 He gave a great shout, like a lion roaring. When he shouted, the seven thunders responded.

and cried with a great voice, as the roar of a lion. And when he had cried, seven thunders spoke their voices.

4 When the seven thunders spoke, I was about to write down what they said when I heard a voice from heaven that told me, “Keep under seal what the seven thunders said. Don't write them down.”

And when those seven thunders had spoken, I was about to write. And I heard a voice from heaven, which said, Seal those (things) which the seven thunders have spoken, and write them not.

5 The angel I saw standing on the sea and on the land held up his right hand to heaven.

And the angel whom I saw standing upon the sea and upon the land, lifted his right hand to heaven,

6 He made a sacred oath by the one who lives for ever and ever, who created the heavens and everything in them, and the earth and everything in it, and the sea and everything in it. “No more delay!” he said. (aiōn g165)

and sware by Him who liveth for ever and ever, who created heaven and those who are in it, and the earth and those that are in it, and the sea and those that are in it, That time no more shall be; (aiōn g165)

7 But at the time when the seventh angel speaks, when he blows his trumpet, then the mystery of God will be completed—the good news he announced through his servants the prophets.

but (that) in the days of the voice of the seventh angel, when he is about to sound, the mystery of Aloha shall be completed, as he hath declared to his servants the prophets.

8 Then I heard again the voice from heaven telling me, “Go and take the scroll that is open in the hand of the angel that stands on the sea and on the land.”

And the voice which I heard from heaven spake with me again, and said, Go, take the book which is open in the hand of the angel who standeth upon the sea and upon the land.

9 So I went to the angel, and asked him to give me the little scroll. He said to me, “Take it and eat it up. It will be sour in your stomach, but sweet as honey in your mouth.”

And I went to the angel, and said to him, Give me the book. And he said to me, Take, and eat it; and it will embitter thee thy belly, but in thy mouth it will be sweet as honey.

10 I took the little scroll from the angel and ate it up. In my mouth it was as sweet as honey, but it was sour in my stomach.

And I took the book from the hand of the angel, and ate it. And it was in my mouth as sweet as honey; and when I had eaten it my belly was made bitter.

11 I was told, “You must prophesy again regarding many peoples, nations, languages, and kings.”

And he said to me, It behoves thee yet to prophesy concerning many nations, and concerning peoples and princes and kings.
