1I saw a mighty angel coming down out of the sky, clothed with a cloud. A rainbow was on his head. His face was like the sun, and his feet like pillars of fire.
1In videl sem drugega angela mogočnega iti doli z neba, ogrnjenega z oblakom, in mavrica na glavi njegovi, in obličje njegovo kakor solnce in nogi njegovi kakor stebra ognjena.
2He had in his hand a little open book. He set his right foot on the sea, and his left on the land.
2In imel je v roki knjižico odprto. In postavil je desno nogo na morje, levo pa na zemljo,
3He cried with a loud voice, as a lion roars. When he cried, the seven thunders uttered their voices.
3in je zavpil z glasom velikim, kakor rjove lev. In ko je zavpil, so govorili sedmeri gromovi glasove svoje.
4When the seven thunders sounded, I was about to write; but I heard a voice from the sky saying, “Seal up the things which the seven thunders said, and don’t write them.”
4In ko so sedmeri gromovi dogovorili, sem hotel pisati; a slišal sem glas z neba, govoreč: Zapečati, kar so govorili sedmeri gromovi, in ne piši tega.
5The angel whom I saw standing on the sea and on the land lifted up his right hand to the sky,
5In angel, ki sem ga videl stoječega na morju in na zemlji, vzdigne roko proti nebu
6and swore by him who lives forever and ever, who created heaven and the things that are in it, the earth and the things that are in it, and the sea and the things that are in it, that there will no longer be delay,
6in priseže pri njem, ki živi na vekov veke, ki je ustvaril nebo in kar je na njem, in zemljo in kar je na njej, in morje in kar je v njem: Podaljšanja časa ne bo več,
7but in the days of the voice of the seventh angel, when he is about to sound, then the mystery of God is finished, as he declared to his servants, the prophets.
7temuč v dneh glasu sedmega angela, ko bo trobil, se tudi dopolni skrivnost Božja, kakor je oznanil v blagovestju hlapcem svojim prorokom.
8The voice which I heard from heaven, again speaking with me, said, “Go, take the book which is open in the hand of the angel who stands on the sea and on the land.”
8In glas, ki sem ga slišal z neba, je zopet govoril z menoj in rekel: Pojdi, vzemi knjižico, odprto v roki angela, stoječega na morju in na zemlji.
9I went to the angel, telling him to give me the little book. He said to me, “Take it, and eat it up. It will make your stomach bitter, but in your mouth it will be as sweet as honey.”
9In šel sem k angelu in mu rekel, naj mi da knjižico. In mi reče: Vzemi in pojej jo! in zagrenila ti bo trebuh, a v ustih tvojih bode sladka kakor med.
10I took the little book out of the angel’s hand, and ate it up. It was as sweet as honey in my mouth. When I had eaten it, my stomach was made bitter.
10In vzamem knjižico iz roke angelove in jo pojem; in bila je v ustih mojih kakor med sladka, a ko sem jo bil pojedel, mi je zagrenel trebuh.In mi reče: Zopet moraš prorokovati o ljudstvih in narodih in jezikih in kraljih mnogih.
11They told me, “You must prophesy again over many peoples, nations, languages, and kings.”
11In mi reče: Zopet moraš prorokovati o ljudstvih in narodih in jezikih in kraljih mnogih.
