< Pahayag 10 >
1 Pagkatapos nakita ko ang isa pang malakas na anghel bumababa mula sa langit. Nababalutan siya ng isang ulap at may isang bahanghari sa itaas ng kaiyang ulo. Ang kaniyang mukha ay tulad ng araw at ang kaniyang mga paa ay gaya ng haliging apoy.
[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 May hawak siya sa kaniyang kamay na isang maliit na balumbon na nakabukas, at ipinatong niya sa dagat ang kaniyang kanang paa at ang kaniyang kaliwang paa sa lupa.
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 Pagkatapos sumigaw siya ng malakas na tinig gaya ng umaatungal na leon, at nang siya ay sumigaw ang pitong mga kulog ay dumagundong.
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 Nang dumagundong ang pitong kulog, halos isusulat ko na, pero narinig ko ang isang tinig mula sa langit na sinasabing, “Manatiling lihin anuman ang sinabi ng pitong kulog. Huwag itong isulat.”
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 Pagkatapos ang anghel na aking nakitang nakatayo sa dagat at sa lupa, ay itinaas ang kaniyang kanang kamay sa langit
Then the angel whom I had seen standing on the ocean and the land raised his right hand toward heaven,
6 at nanumpa sa pamamagitan niya na mabubuhay magpakailanman — siyang lumikha ng langit at lahat ng naroon, ang lupa at lahat ng naroon, at ang dagat at lahat ng naroon: “Walang maaaring magtagal doon. (aiōn )
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 )
7 Pero sa araw kung kailan ang ika-pitong anghel ay malapit nang hipan ang kaniyang trumpeta, pagkatapos ang hiwaga ng Diyos ay naganap na, gaya ng kaniyang ipinahayag sa kaniyang mga lingkod na mga propheta.”
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 Narinig ko ang tinig mula sa langit na may muling sinasabi sa akin: “Lumakad ka, kunin mo ang bukas na balumbon na nasa kamay ng anghel na nakatayo sa dagat at sa lupa.”
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 Pagkatapos pumunta ako sa angel at sinabi ko sa kaniya na ibigay niya sa akin ang maliit na balumbon. Sinabi niya sa akin, “Kunin mo ang balumbon at kaiinin ito. Gagawin nitong mapait ang iyong tiyan, pero sa iyong bibig ito ay magiging kasing tamis ng pulot.
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 Kinuha ko ang maliit na balumbon mula sa kamay ng anghel at kinain ko ito. Ito ay kasing tamis ng pulot sa aking bibig pero pagkatapos ko itong kainin ay pumait ang aking tiyan.
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 Pagkatapos ilang mga tinig ang nagsabi sa akin, “Kailangan mong magpropesiya muli tungkol sa maraming tao, mga bansa, mga wika at sa mga hari.”
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.”
