‏ Revelation of John 10

CHAPTER 10 The Strong Angel with the Small Scroll

1 And I saw [²angel ¹a strong] coming down from the heaven, wearing a cloud and the rainbow upon his head. And his face was as the sun, and his feet as columns of fire. 2 And he had in his hand a small scroll being opened. And he put [³foot ¹his ²right] upon the sea, and the left upon the land.

The Seven Thunders

3 And he cried out [²voice ¹with a great], as a lion roars. And when he cried out, [⁴spoke ¹the ²seven ³thunders] the things of their own voices. 4 And when [⁴spoke ¹the ²seven ³thunders], I was about to write; and I heard a voice out of the heaven saying to me, Set a seal upon what [⁴spoke ¹the ²seven ³thunders], and do not write these things. 5 And the angel whom I saw standing upon the sea, and upon the earth, lifted his hand, the right one, to the heaven. 6 And he swore by an oath, by the one living into the eons of the eons, who created the heaven and the things in it, and the earth and the things in it, and the sea and the things in it; for delay will not any longer be; 7 but in the days of the sound of the seventh angel, whenever he is about to trump, and [⁴should be initiated ¹the ²mystery ³of God], which good news was announced by his bondmen the prophets.

The Small Scroll Is Eaten

8 And the voice which I heard from out of the heaven, again spoke with me, and saying, Go, take the small scroll, the one being open in the hand of the angel standing upon the sea, and upon the land! 9 And I went forth to the angel, saying to him, Give to me the small scroll! And he says to me, Take and devour it! and it shall embitter your belly, but in your mouth it will be sweet as honey. 10 And I took the small scroll from out of the hand of the angel, and devoured it; and it was in my mouth as [²honey ¹sweet]; and when I ate it [²was made bitter ¹my belly]. 11 And he says to me, It is necessary for you again to prophesy over peoples, and over nations, and languages, and kings -- many.
