Revelation 10:1-6

New American Standard Bible

The Angel and the Little Scroll

10 I saw another ^(A)strong angel ^(B)coming down from heaven, clothed with a cloud; and the ^(C)rainbow was on his head, and ^(D)his face was like the sun, and his ^(E)feet like pillars of fire; ² and he had in his hand a ^(F)little scroll, which was open. He placed ^(G)his right foot on the sea and his left on the land; ³ and he cried out with a loud voice, ^(H)as when a lion roars; and when he had cried out, the ^(I)seven peals of thunder ^[a]uttered their voices. ⁴ When the seven peals of thunder had spoken, ^(J)I was about to write; and I ^(K)heard a voice from heaven, saying, “^(L)Seal up the things which the seven peals of thunder have spoken, and do not write them.” ⁵ Then the angel whom I saw standing on the sea and on the land ^(M)raised his right hand to heaven, ^6 (N)and swore by ^(O)Him who lives forever and ever, ^(P)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 ^(Q)there will no longer be a delay,
