Revelation 10:1-7

Christian Standard Bible

The Mighty Angel and the Small Scroll

10 Then I saw another mighty angel^(A) coming down from heaven, wrapped in a cloud, with a rainbow^(B) over his head.^[a] His face was like the sun, his legs^[b] were like pillars of fire,^{(C) 2} and he held a little scroll opened in his hand. He put his right foot on the sea, his left on the land, ³ and he called out with a loud voice like a roaring lion. When he cried out, the seven thunders raised their voices. ⁴ And when the seven thunders spoke, I was about to write, but I heard a voice from heaven, saying, “Seal up what the seven thunders said,^(D) and do not write it down!”

⁵ Then the angel that I had seen standing on the sea and on the land raised his right hand to heaven. ⁶ He swore by the one who lives forever and ever,^(E) who created heaven and what is in it, the earth and what is in it, and the sea and what is in it, “There will no longer be a delay, ⁷ but in the days when the seventh angel^(F) will blow his trumpet, then the mystery of God^(G) will be completed, as he announced to his servants the prophets.”^(H)
