Revelation of John 10

The Angel and the Little Book

1I saw another astrong angel bcoming down out of heaven, clothed with a cloud; and the crainbow was upon his head, and dhis face was like the sun, and his efeet like pillars of fire; 2and he had in his hand a flittle book which was open. He placed ghis right foot on the sea and his left on the land; 3and he cried out with a loud voice, has when a lion roars; and when he had cried out, the iseven peals of thunder
Or spoke
uttered their voices.
4When the seven peals of thunder had spoken, kI was about to write; and I lheard a voice from heaven saying, mSeal up the things which the seven peals of thunder have spoken and do not write them.” 5Then the angel whom I saw standing on the sea and on the land nlifted up his right hand to heaven, 6 oand swore by pHim who lives forever and ever, q who created heaven and the things in it, and the earth and the things in it, and the sea and the things in it, that rthere will be delay no longer, 7but in the days of the voice of the sseventh angel, when he is about to sound, then tthe mystery of God is finished, as He
Lit preached the gospel
preached to His servants the prophets.

8Then vthe voice which I heard from heaven, I heard again speaking with me, and saying, “Go, take wthe
Or scroll
book which is open in the hand of the angel who ystands on the sea and on the land.”
9So I went to the angel, telling him to give me the little book. And he said to me, zTake it and eat it; it will make your stomach bitter, but in your mouth it will be sweet as honey.” 10I took the little book out of the angel’s hand and ate it, and in my mouth it was sweet as honey; and when I had eaten it, my stomach was made bitter. 11And aa they said to me, “You must abprophesy again concerning acmany peoples and nations and tongues and adkings.”
