The Angel and the Little Scroll
1 Then I saw *a 71% ¦ another ANT CT TR 25.3%a mighty angel coming down from heaven, wrapped in a cloud, with a rainbow over his head; his face was like the sun, and his legs were like pillars of fire. 2 In his hand he held †an open scroll 44.7% ¦ a little scroll that was open CT PCK TR 55.3%an open scroll. He placed his right foot on the sea and his left foot on the land, 3 and cried out with a loud voice, like a lion roaring. When he cried out, the seven thunders sounded their voices. 4 And when the seven thunders ‡spoke 88% ¦ sounded their voices TR 0.5% ¦ {omit sounded their voices. 4 And when the seven thunders} MSS 8.8%spoke, I was about to write. But I heard a voice from heaven §saying 95.4% ¦ saying to me TR 0.9%saying, “Seal up what the seven thunders have said, and *do not 61.6% ¦ after this yoʋ can PCK 27.6%do not write it down.” 5 Then the angel I had seen standing on the sea and on the land raised his †right 88.9% ¦ — TR 10.6%right hand to heaven 6 and swore by him who lives forever and ever, who created heaven and everything in it, the earth and everything in it, and the sea and everything in it, and said that there would no longer be delay, 7 but that in the days when the seventh angel would sound his trumpet, the mystery of God would be completed, ‡according to the good news he had announced 68.7% ¦ which had been announced as good news PCK 19.6% ¦ according to the good news that had been announced MSS 5.6%according to the good news he had announced to his servants the prophets.
8 Then the voice I had heard from heaven spoke to me again, saying, “Go take the §little 94.4% ¦ — CT 5.1%little scroll that is open in the hand of the angel who is standing on the sea and on the land.” 9 So I went over to the angel and *asked him to give me the little scroll. 57.7% ¦ said to him, “Give me the little scroll.” PCK TR 42.3%asked him to give me the little scroll. And he said to me, “Take the scroll and eat it.

In my mouth it was as sweet as honey, but when I had eaten it, my stomach turned bitter. 11 Then I was told, “Yoʋ must prophesy again about many peoples, nations, tongues, and kings.”
