< Wahyu 10 >

1 Lalu saya melihat malaikat lain yang penuh kuasa turun dari surga. Malaikat itu berjubahkan awan putih. Kepalanya dikelilingi sebuah pelangi. Mukanya bersinar seperti matahari, dan kakinya kelihatan seperti dua tiang api.
And I saw another mighty angel coming down out of heaven, clad with a cloud; and a rainbow was upon his head, and his face was like the sun, and his feet like pillars of fire.
2 Dia memegang sebuah gulungan kitab yang terbuka. Kaki kanannya menginjak laut, sedangkan kaki kirinya menginjak daratan.
In his hand he had a little book, open; and he set his right foot upon the sea, and his left upon the land.
3 Malaikat itu berseru dengan suara yang sangat nyaring, seperti singa mengaum. Sesudah itu, suara Yang Mahakuasa berbicara dari surga seperti bunyi guntur.
With a great voice he shouted as a lion roars; and when he shouted, the seven thunders uttered their voices.
4 Baru saja saya hendak menuliskan apa yang saya dengar, ada suara lain dari surga yang berkata, “Jangan tuliskan apa yang dikatakan oleh suara yang seperti guntur itu. Rahasiakanlah hal itu.”
When the seven thunders uttered their voices, I was about to write; but I heard a voice from the sky, saying, "Seal up the words which the seven thunders uttered, and write them not."
5 Lalu malaikat yang menginjak laut dan darat tadi mengangkat tangan kanannya ke langit
And the angel whom I had seen standing upon the sea and upon the land lifted up his right hand to heaven,
6 dan bersumpah, “Demi Dia yang hidup selamanya, yaitu TUHAN Pencipta langit, bumi, laut, dan segala isinya: Allah tidak akan menunda untuk melaksanakan apa yang sudah direncanakan-Nya! Ketika malaikat yang ketujuh meniup terompetnya, semua yang dinubuatkan para nabi dan para utusan Allah akan segera terjadi, dan rencana Allah yang masih dirahasiakan dari manusia akan menjadi nyata.” (aiōn g165)
and swore by him who lives forever and ever, who created the heaven and all that is in it, and the earth and all that is in it, and the sea and all that is in it, "Delay there shall be no more, (aiōn g165)
7
but in the days of the voice of the seventh angel, when he is about to blow his trumpet, then shall there be finished the mystery of God, according to the Good News which he told unto his slaves, the prophets."
8 Kemudian suara dari langit itu menyuruh saya, “Pergilah mengambil gulungan kitab kecil yang terbuka dari tangan malaikat yang menginjak laut dan darat.”
And the voice which I had heard from heaven, I heard again, speaking to me, and saying, "Go, take the little book that is open in the hand of the angel who stands upon the sea and upon the land."
9 Maka saya pergi kepada malaikat itu dan berkata, “Tolong berikan gulungan kitab kecil itu kepada saya.” Jawab malaikat itu, “Ambillah ini dan makanlah. Kitab ini akan terasa manis seperti madu di dalam mulutmu, tetapi akan membuat perutmu mual.”
And I went to the angel and told him to give me the little book. And he said to me. "Take it, and eat it up; it will make your belly bitter, but in your mouth it will be as sweet as honey."
10 Ketika saya mengambil kitab itu dari tangannya dan memakannya, kitab itu manis seperti madu di dalam mulut saya, dan sesudah ditelan, perut saya terasa mual.
I took the little book out of the hand of the angel, and ate it up, and it was in my mouth sweet like honey; but when I had eaten it, my belly was made bitter.
11 Lalu saya diberitahu, “Kamu harus bernubuat lagi tentang berbagai suku bahasa, bangsa, dan kerajaan.”
Then I was told, "You must prophesy again over many peoples and nations and tongues and kings."
