Revelation, Chapter 10

התגלות י

A mighty angel comes down from heaven with a little open book, stands upon the sea and the earth, and swears that at the sound of the seventh angel the mystery of God shall be finished. Yoḥanan takes the little book and eats it, and is told he must prophesy again.

10:1And 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:

Καὶ εἶδον ἄλλον ἄγγελον ἰσχυρὸν καταβαίνοντα ἐκ τοῦ οὐρανοῦ, περιβεβλημένον νεφέλην, καὶ ἶρις ἐπὶ τῆς κεφαλῆς, καὶ τὸ πρόσωπον αὐτοῦ ὡς ὁ ἥλιος, καὶ οἱ πόδες αὐτοῦ ὡς στῦλοι πυρός·

אלאחר מכן ראיתי מלאך גיבור אחר יורד מן השמים. הוא היה עטוף בענן, ומעל ראשו מעין קשת; פניו זרחו כשמש, רגליו דמו לעמודי אש

10:2And 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,

καὶ εἴχεν ἐν τῇ χειρὶ αὐτοῦ βιβλαρίδιον ἀνεῳγμένον· καὶ ἔθηκε τὸν πόδα αὐτοῦ τὸν δεξιὸν ἐπὶ τὴν θάλασσαν, τὸν δὲ εὐώνυμον ἐπὶ τὴν γῆν,

בובידו החזיק ספר קטן פתוח. רגלו הימנית דרכה על הארץ,

10:3And cried with a loud voice, as when a lion roars: and when he had cried, seven thunders uttered their voices.

καὶ ἔκραξε φωνῇ μεγάλῃ ὥσπερ λέων μυκᾶται· καὶ ὅτε ἔκραξεν, ἐλάλησαν αἱ ἑπτὰ βρονταὶ τὰς ἑαυτῶν φωνάς,

גוהוא קרא קריאה אדירה כשאגת אריה. בתגובה לקריאתו הרימו שבעת הרעמים את קולם והחלו לדבר.

10:4And 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.”

καὶ ὅτε ἐλάλησαν αἱ ἑπτὰ βρονταί τὰς φωνὰς ἑαυτῶν, ἔμελλον γράφειν· καὶ ἤκουσα φωνὴν ἐκ τοῦ οὐρανοῦ, λέγουσαν μοι, Σφράγισον ἃ ἐλάλησαν αἱ ἑπτὰ βρονταί, καὶ μὴ ταὐτὰ γράψῃς.

דבשעה שדיברו שבעת הרעמים רציתי לכתוב את דבריהם, אך שמעתי קול מן השמים שציווה עלי: ”דברי הרעמים הם סוד. אל תעלה אותם על הנייר!“

The angel’s oath

10:5And the angel which I saw stand upon the sea and upon the earth lifted up his hand to heaven,

καὶ ὁ ἄγγελος ὃν εἶδον ἑστῶτα ἐπὶ τῆς θαλάσσης καὶ ἐπὶ τῆς γῆς ἦρε τὴν χεῖρα αὐτοῦ εἰς τὸν οὐρανὸν,

ההמלאך הגיבור, שראיתיו עומד על הים ועל הארץ, הרים את יד ימינו כלפי השמים

Tenakh. Quotes Daniel 12:7.

10:6And swore by Him that lives 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:

καὶ ὤμοσεν ἐν τῷ ζῶντι εἰς τοὺς αἰῶνας τῶν αἰώνων, ὃς ἔκτισε τὸν οὐρανὸν καὶ τὰ ἐν αὐτῷ, καὶ τὴν γῆν καὶ τὰ ἐν αὐτῇ, καὶ τὴν θάλασσαν καὶ τὰ ἐν αὐτῇ, ὅτι χρόνος οὐκ ἔσται έτι·

וונשבע בשמו של החי לנצח, האלוהים אשר ברא את השמים, הארץ, הים ואת כל אשר בהם: ”לא יהיה עיכוב נוסף!

Tenakh. Quotes Daniel 12:7.

10:7But 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 has declared to His servants the prophets.

ἀλλὰ ἐν ταῖς ἡμέραις τῆς φωνῆς τοῦ ἑβδόμου ἀγγέλου, ὅταν μέλλῃ σαλπίζειν, καὶ τελεσθῇ τὸ μυστήριον τοῦ Θεοῦ, ὡς εὐηγγέλισε τοῖς ἑαυτοῦ δούλοις τοῖς προφήταις.

זבימי תקיעת המלאך השביעי בשופרו, כאשר יחל לתקוע, יתגלה סודו של אלוהים, כפי שבישר לעבדיו הנביאים.“

Yoḥanan eats the little book

10:8And the voice which I heard from heaven spoke unto me again, and said, “Go and take the little book which is open in the hand of the angel which stands upon the sea and upon the earth.”

καὶ ἡ φωνὴ ἣν ἤκουσα ἐκ τοῦ οὐρανοῦ, πάλιν λαλοῦσα μετ’ ἐμοῦ, καὶ λέγουσα, Ὕπαγε λάβε τὸ βιβλαρίδιον τὸ ἠνεῳγμένον ἐν τῇ χειρὶ ἀγγέλου τοῦ ἑστῶτος ἐπὶ τῆς θαλάσσης καὶ ἐπὶ τῆς γῆς.

חהקול אשר שמעתי מן השמים דיבר אלי שנית: ”לך, קח את הספר הקטן ופתוח מיד המלאך שעומד על הים ועל הארץ.“

10:9And 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 your belly bitter, but it shall be in your mouth sweet as honey.”

καὶ ἀπῆλθον πρὸς τὸν ἄγγελον, λέγων αὐτῷ, Δός μοι τὸ βιβλαρίδιον. καὶ λέγει μοι, Λάβε καὶ κατάφαγε αὐτό· καὶ πικρανεῖ σου τὴν κοιλίαν, ἀλλ’ ἐν τῷ στόματί σου ἔσται γλυκὺ ὡς μέλι.

טניגשתי אליו וביקשתי ממנו את הספר. ”קח ואכול אותו“, אמר לי המלאך. ”בפיך יהיה טעמו כדבש, אך לאחר שתבלע אותו הוא יהיה מר בבטנך!“

10:10And 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.

καὶ ἔλαβον τὸ βιβλαρίδιον ἐκ τῆς χειρὸς τοῦ ἀγγέλου, καὶ κατέφαγον αὐτό, καὶ ἦν ἐν τῷ στόματί μου ὡς μέλι, γλυκύ· καὶ ὅτε ἔφαγον αὐτό, ἐπικράνθη ἡ κοιλία μου.

ילקחתי את הספר מהמלאך ואכלתי אותו. בפי היה טעמו כדבש, אך לאחר שבלעתי אותו כאבה בטני וחשתי במרירות.

10:11And he said unto me, “You must prophesy again before many peoples, and nations, and tongues, and kings.”

καὶ λέγει μοι, Δεῖ σε πάλιν προφητεῦσαι ἐπὶ λαοῖς καὶ ἔθνεσι καὶ γλώσσαις καὶ βασιλεῦσι πολλοῖς.

יא”עליך לשוב ולנבא על ארצות, עמים, שבטים, שפות ומלכים רבים“, אמר אלי המלאך.

Sources & method

English translation
The King James Version (public domain), lightly modernized by Benei Avraham: “thee/thou/ye” become “you,” older verb forms are updated, and archaic words are replaced only where the meaning would otherwise be unclear. People and places with Hebrew names carry them, with the King James spelling in parentheses the first time on each page (e.g., Yeshua (Jesus)); Greek and Roman names keep their English form. Christ is “Messiah”; Lord, used of Yeshua, is “Master”; where the Greek has Kyrios for God, the English keeps “the Lord.” “Church” is “congregation,” “baptize” is “immerse,” and the Holy Ghost is “the Holy Spirit.”
