-Revelation
Chapter 10 - (King James Version)
1 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.

- Revelation Chapter
10 - (New International
Version)
1Then I saw another mighty angel coming
down from heaven. He was robed in a cloud, with a rainbow above his
head; his face was like the sun, and his legs were like fiery pillars.
2He was holding a little scroll, which lay open in his
hand. He planted his right foot on the sea and his left foot on the
land, 3and he gave a loud shout like the roar of a lion.
When he shouted, the voices of the seven thunders spoke. 4And
when the seven thunders spoke, I was about to write; but I heard a
voice from heaven say, "Seal up what the seven thunders have said and
do not write it down."
5Then the angel I had seen standing on the sea and on the
land raised his right hand to heaven. 6And he swore by him
who lives for ever and ever, 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, and said, "There will be no more delay! 7But in the
days when the seventh angel is about to sound his trumpet, the mystery
of God will be accomplished, just as he announced to his servants the
prophets."
8Then the voice that I had heard from heaven spoke to me
once more: "Go, take the scroll that lies open in the hand of the
angel who is standing on the sea and on the land."
9So 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." 10I
took the little scroll from the angel's hand and ate it. It tasted as
sweet as honey in my mouth, but when I had eaten it, my stomach turned
sour. 11Then I was told, "You must prophesy again about
many peoples, nations, languages and kings."
