10:1 我又看见另有一位大力的天使,从天降下,披着云彩,头上有虹。脸面像日头,两脚像火柱。
And I saw another mighty angel come down from heaven, clothed with a cloud: and a rainbow was upon his head, and his face was as it were the sun, and his feet as pillars of fire:
10:2 他手里拿着小书卷是展开的。他用右脚踏海,左脚踏地。
And he had in his hand a little book open: and he set his right foot upon the sea, and his left foot on the earth,
10:3 大声呼喊,好像狮子吼叫,呼喊完了,就有七雷发声。
And cried with a loud voice, as when a lion roareth: and when he had cried, seven thunders uttered their voices.
10:4 七雷发声之后,我正要写出来,就听见从天上有声音说,七雷所说的你要封上,不可写出来。
And when the seven thunders had uttered their voices, I was about to write: and I heard a voice from heaven saying unto me, Seal up those things which the seven thunders uttered, and write them not.
10:5 我所看见的那踏海踏地的天使,向天举起右手来,
And the angel which I saw stand upon the sea and upon the earth lifted up his hand to heaven,
10:6 指着那创造天和天上之物,地和地上之物,海和海中之物,直活到永永远远的,起誓说,不再有时日了。(或作不再耽延了)
And sware by him that liveth for ever and ever, who created heaven, and the things that therein are, and the earth, and the things that therein are, and the sea, and the things which are therein, that there should be time no longer:
10:7 但在第七位天使吹号发声的时候,神的奥秘,就成全了,正如神所传给他仆人众先知的佳音。
But in the days of the voice of the seventh angel, when he shall begin to sound, the mystery of God should be finished, as he hath declared to his servants the prophets.
10:8 我先前从天上所听见的那声音,又吩咐我说,你去把那踏海踏地之天使手中展开的小书卷取过来。
And the voice which I heard from heaven spake unto me again, and said, Go and take the little book which is open in the hand of the angel which standeth upon the sea and upon the earth.
10:9 我就走到天使那里,对他说,请你把小书卷给我。他对我说,你拿着吃尽了,便叫你肚子发苦,然而在你口中要甜如蜜。
And I went unto the angel, and said unto him, Give me the little book. And he said unto me, Take it, and eat it up; and it shall make thy belly bitter, but it shall be in thy mouth sweet as honey.
10:10 我从天使手中把小书卷接过来,吃尽了。在我口中果然甜如蜜。吃了以后,肚子觉得发苦了。
And I took the little book out of the angel's hand, and ate it up; and it was in my mouth sweet as honey: and as soon as I had eaten it, my belly was bitter.
10:11 天使(原文作他们)对我说,你必指着多民多国多方多王说预言。
And he said unto me, Thou must prophesy again before many peoples, and nations, and tongues, and kings.
