1And I saw another mighty Angel coming down from heaven, wrapped in a cloud; with a rainbow above His head, and His face shone like the sun, and His legs were like fiery pillars. 2And He held a little scroll which lay open in His hand; and He planted His right foot upon the sea, and His left foot upon the land, 3And He gave a loud shout like the roar of a lion; and when He shouted, seven thunders answered. 4And when the seven thunders had responded, I was about to write; but I heard a voice from heaven saying to me, “Seal up what the seven thunders said, and do not write it down.” (Dan.8:26, 12:4,9)

5And then the Angel I saw standing, with His right foot on the sea, and His left foot on the land, raised His right hand toward heaven, 6And swore by Him Who lives forever and ever - Who created the heavens, and all that are in them, the earth, and all that are in it, and the sea, and all that are in it - that “there will be no more delay!” 7But in the days when the seventh angel shall begin to sound his trumpet, the mysterious plan of God should be fulfilled, just as He has declared to His servants, the prophets.

8And then the voice that I heard from heaven spoke to me once more, and said, “Go and take the little scroll which is open in the hand of the Angel Who stands upon the sea and upon the land.” 9And so I went to the Angel, and asked Him to give me the little scroll. And He said, “Take it, and eat it; and it shall be sweet as honey in your mouth, but it shall turn sour in your stomach.” (Ezek.3:1). 10And I took the little scroll out of the Angel's hand, and ate it; and it was in my mouth sweet as honey; but as soon as I had swallowed it, my stomach turned sour. (Ezek.3:3) 11And He said to me, “You must prophesy again about many peoples, and nations, and languages, and kings.”
