< Revelation 10 >

1 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.
Lalu saya melihat seorang malaikat perkasa yang lain turun dari surga. Ia diselubungi awan, dan sebuah pelangi melingkari kepalanya. Mukanya bersinar seperti matahari, dan kakinya seperti tiang api.
2 He had in his hand a little open scroll. He set his right foot on the sea, and his left on the land.
Di tangannya ada sebuah gulungan buku kecil yang terbuka. Kaki kanannya berjejak di laut, dan kaki kirinya berjejak di darat.
3 He shouted with a loud voice, as a lion roars. When he shouted, the seven thunders uttered their voices.
Lalu ia berseru dengan suara yang keras seperti meraungnya singa-singa. Sesudah malaikat itu berseru, ketujuh guntur menjawab dengan suara gemuruh.
4 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."
Begitu ketujuh guntur itu bersuara, saya mau mencatatnya, tetapi saya mendengar suara dari surga berkata, "Rahasiakanlah apa yang dikatakan oleh tujuh guntur itu; jangan mencatatnya!"
5 The angel whom I saw standing on the sea and on the land lifted up his right hand to the sky,
Lalu malaikat yang saya lihat berjejak di laut dan di darat itu mengangkat tangan kanannya ke langit.
6 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 g165)
Ia bersumpah demi nama Allah yang hidup selama-lamanya, yang menciptakan langit, bumi dan laut serta segala sesuatu yang ada di dalamnya. Malaikat itu berkata, "Waktunya tidak akan ditunda lagi! (aiōn g165)
7 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.
Tetapi apabila malaikat ketujuh meniup trompetnya, Allah akan melaksanakan rencana rahasia-Nya, seperti telah Ia beritakan kepada hamba-hamba-Nya, yaitu para nabi."
8 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."
Kemudian suara yang telah saya dengar dari surga itu, berbicara lagi kepada saya. Ia berkata, "Pergilah mengambil gulungan buku yang terbuka di tangan malaikat yang berjejak di laut dan di darat itu."
9 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."
Maka saya pun pergi kepada malaikat itu dan meminta supaya ia memberikan gulungan kecil itu kepada saya. Ia berkata, "Ambillah dan makanlah ini. Di dalam perutmu ia akan menjadi pahit, tetapi di dalam mulutmu ia manis seperti madu."
10 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.
Saya mengambil gulungan kecil itu dari tangannya lalu memakannya. Di mulut rasanya seperti madu, tetapi setelah saya menelannya, di dalam perut ia menjadi pahit.
11 They told me, "You must prophesy again about many peoples, nations, languages, and kings."
Kemudian saya diperintahkan, "Sebarkanlah sekali lagi berita Allah tentang bangsa-bangsa, negara-negara, bahasa-bahasa, dan raja-raja."
