The Angel and the Little Scroll
10 Then I saw another (A)strong angel (B)coming down out of heaven, clothed with a cloud, and the (C)rainbow was upon 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 earth, 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 And 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 earth, (M)lifted up 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 be delay no longer, 7 but in the days of the voice of the (R)seventh angel, when he is about to sound, then (S)the mystery of God is finished, as He proclaimed good news to His slaves, the prophets.
8 Then (T)the voice which I heard from heaven, I heard again speaking with me, and saying, “Go, take (U)the scroll which is open in the hand of the angel who (V)stands on the sea and on the earth.” 9 So I went to the angel, telling him to give me the little scroll. And he *said to me, “(W)Take it and eat it; it will make your stomach bitter, but in your mouth it will be sweet as honey.” 10 And I took the little scroll 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. 11 And (X)they *said to me, “You must (Y)prophesy again about (Z)many peoples and nations and tongues and (AA)kings.”

10 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:
2 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,
3 And cried with a loud voice, as when a lion roareth: and when he had cried, seven thunders uttered their voices.
4 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.
5 And the angel which I saw stand upon the sea and upon the earth lifted up his hand to heaven,
6 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:
7 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.
8 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.
9 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 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.
11 And he said unto me, Thou must prophesy again before many peoples, and nations, and tongues, and kings.

An Angel With a Scroll Says The Mystery Will Be Finished With The Seventh Trumpet
10 And I saw another strong angel coming down from heaven, having been clothed-with a cloud. And the rainbow[a] was over[b] his head, and his face was like the sun, and his feet were like pillars of fire. 2 And he was holding[c] in his hand an opened little-scroll. And he placed his right foot upon the sea and the left one upon the land, 3 and he cried-out with a loud voice— as indeed a lion roars. And when he cried-out, the seven thunders spoke their voices. 4 And when the seven thunders spoke, I was about to write. And I heard a voice from heaven saying, “Seal the things which the seven thunders spoke, and do not write them”. 5 And the angel whom I saw standing upon the sea and upon the land lifted-up his right hand to heaven 6 and swore by the One living forever and ever— Who created the heaven and the things in it, and the land and the things in it, and the sea and the things in it— that there will be no more time[d] [of delay]. 7 But during the days of the sound of the seventh angel, when he is about-to trumpet, the mystery of God was indeed finished[e], as He announced-as-good-news-to His slaves, the prophets. 8 And the voice which I heard from heaven was again speaking with me, and saying “Go, take the opened scroll in the hand of the angel standing upon the sea and upon the land”. 9 And I went to the angel, telling him to give me the little-scroll. And he says to me, “Take, and eat[f] it up. And it will make your stomach bitter. But in your mouth it will be sweet like honey”. 10 And I took the little-scroll out of the hand of the angel, and I ate it up. And it was like sweet honey in my mouth. And when I ate it, my stomach was made-bitter. 11 And they[g] say to me, “You must prophesy again for[h] many peoples and nations and tongues and kings”.

Apocalisse 10
La Bibbia della Gioia
Si compie il piano di Dio
10 A questo punto vidi un altro potente angelo scendere dal cielo avvolto in una nuvola. Sul capo aveva un arcobaleno, il suo viso splendeva come il sole e le sue gambe sembravano colonne di fuoco. 2 In mano teneva un libretto aperto. Posto il piede destro sul mare e il sinistro sulla terra, 3 gridò con una voce forte come il ruggito di un leone. Al suo grido fece seguito il fragore di sette tuoni.
4 Stavo per scrivere ciò che dicevano i tuoni, quando una voce dal cielo mi disse: «Tieni segreto ciò che hanno detto i sette tuoni. Non metterlo per iscritto!»
5 Allora il potente angelo, che avevo visto in piedi sul mare e sulla terra, alzò la destra verso il cielo 6 e giurò nel nome di Dio che non ci sarebbe stato più indugio. Sì, giurò nel nome di Colui che vive in eterno, il quale ha creato il cielo, la terra, il mare e tutto ciò che essi contengono. 7 Lʼangelo disse: «Quando si udrà lo squillo di tromba del settimo angelo, giungerà a compimento il piano segreto di Dio, come egli annunciò ai suoi servi, i profeti».
8 Sentii allora di nuovo la voce che mi aveva parlato dal cielo, che mi diceva: «Vaʼ a prendere il libretto aperto in mano al potente angelo che sta in piedi sulla terra e sul mare!» 9 Così mi avvicinai allʼangelo e gli chiesi di darmi il libretto.
«Prendilo e mangialo», disse. «In bocca sarà dolce come il miele, ma quando lo inghiottirai, ti farà male allo stomaco». 10 Allora presi il libretto dalla sua mano e lo mangiai. Proprio come aveva detto lui, in bocca lo sentii dolce come il miele, ma, quando lʼebbi inghiottito, avvertii dolore allo stomaco.
11 Poi mi fu detto: «Bisogna che tu profetizzi ancora su molti popoli, nazioni, lingue e regni».

The Angel and the Little Scroll
10 Then I saw another mighty angel(A) coming down from heaven.(B) He was robed in a cloud, with a rainbow(C) above his head; his face was like the sun,(D) and his legs were like fiery pillars.(E) 2 He was holding a little scroll,(F) which lay open in his hand. He planted his right foot on the sea and his left foot on the land,(G) 3 and he gave a loud shout like the roar of a lion.(H) When he shouted, the voices of the seven thunders(I) spoke. 4 And when the seven thunders spoke, I was about to write;(J) but I heard a voice from heaven(K) say, “Seal up what the seven thunders have said and do not write it down.”(L)
5 Then the angel I had seen standing on the sea and on the land(M) raised his right hand to heaven.(N) 6 And he swore(O) by him who lives for ever and ever,(P) who created the heavens and all that is in them, the earth and all that is in it, and the sea and all that is in it,(Q) and said, “There will be no more delay!(R) 7 But in the days when the seventh angel is about to sound his trumpet,(S) the mystery(T) of God will be accomplished, just as he announced to his servants the prophets.”(U)
8 Then the voice that I had heard from heaven(V) spoke to me once more: “Go, take the scroll(W) that lies open in the hand of the angel who is standing on the sea and on the land.”
9 So I went to the angel and asked him to give me the little scroll. He said to me, “Take it and eat it. It will turn your stomach sour, but ‘in your mouth it will be as sweet as honey.’[a]”(X) 10 I took the little scroll from the angel’s hand and ate it. It tasted as sweet as honey in my mouth,(Y) but when I had eaten it, my stomach turned sour. 11 Then I was told, “You must prophesy(Z) again about many peoples, nations, languages and kings.”(AA)
