The Revelation to Yochanan, Chapter 10
{10:1} I saw a 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
[1>]feet[<1] like pillars of fire. {10:2} He had in his hand a little
open book. He set his right foot on the sea, and his left on the land.
{10:3} He cried with a loud voice, as a lion roars. When he cried, the
seven thunders uttered their voices. {10:4} 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 don't
write them."
{10:5} The angel whom I saw standing on the sea and on the land
lifted up his right hand to the sky, {10:6} 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, {10:7} 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. {10:8} The voice which I heard from heaven, again
speaking with me, said, "Go, take the book which is open in the hand
of the angel who stands on the sea and on the land."
{10:9} I went to the angel, telling him to give me the little book.
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."
{10:10} I took the little book 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. {10:11} They told me, "You must prophesy
again over many peoples, nations, languages, and kings."
