< Revelation 10 >

1 I 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.
A ka kite ahau i tetahi atu anahera kaha e heke iho ana i te rangi, he mea whakakakahu ki te kapua: ko te aniwaniwa i runga i tona matenga, ko tona kanohi rite tonu ki te ra, ona waewae ki te pou kapura:
2 He had in his hand a little open book. He set his right foot on the sea, and his left on the land.
I tona ringaringa hoki tetahi pukapuka nohinohi e tuwhera ana: a ko tona waewae matau e takahi ana ki te moana, ko tona maui ki te whenua:
3 He cried with a loud voice, as a lion roars. When he cried, the seven thunders uttered their voices.
He nui ano tona reo ki te karanga, ano he raiona e tangi ana: a i te mea ka karanga ia, ka puaki nga reo o nga whatitiri e whitu.
4 When 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.”
A, no ka puaki nga reo o nga whatitiri e whitu, ka mea ahau ki te tuhituhi: na ka rangona e ahau he reo i te rangi e mea mai ana ki ahau, Hiritia nga mea kua whakapuakina nei e nga whatitiri e whitu, kaua hoki enei e tuhituhia.
5 The angel whom I saw standing on the sea and on the land lifted up his right hand to the sky
Na ko te anahera i kitea ra e ahau e tu ana i runga i te moana i runga hoki i te whenua, whakaara ana i tona ringa matau ki te rangi,
6 and 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, (aiōn g165)
A oatitia ana e ia te Mea ora tonu ake ake, nana nei i hanga te rangi me ona mea, te whenua me ona mea, te moana me ona mea, kahore ake he taima: (aiōn g165)
7 but 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.
Engari i nga ra o te reo o te whitu o nga anahera, ina mea ia ki te whakatangi, ka whakaotia te mea ngaro a te Atua, tana rongopai i kauwhau ai ki ana pononga, ki nga poropiti.
8 The 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.”
A ka korero ano ki ahau te reo i rongo ai ahau i te rangi, ka mea, Tikina atu te pukapuka nohinohi e tuwhera na i te ringaringa o te anahera e tu na i runga i te moana, i runga ano i te whenua.
9 I went to the angel, telling him to give me the little book. He said to me, “Take it and eat it. It will make your stomach bitter, but in your mouth it will be as sweet as honey.”
Na ka haere ahau ki te anahera, ka mea ki a ia, Homai ki ahau te pukapuka nohinohi na. Ka mea mai ia ki ahau, Tangohia, kainga; a ka kawa tou kopu, ka reka ia ki tou mangai, ano he honi.
10 I took the little book out of the angel’s hand, and ate it. It was as sweet as honey in my mouth. When I had eaten it, my stomach was made bitter.
Na ka tango ahau i te pukapuka nohinohi i te ringaringa o te anahera, kainga ana e ahau; a i reka ano ki toku mangai, ano he honi: no taku kainga, kua kawa toku kopu.
11 They told me, “You must prophesy again over many peoples, nations, languages, and kings.”
A ka mea mai ratou ki ahau, Me poropiti ano koe mo nga huihuinga tokomaha o nga tangata, o nga iwi, o nga reo, o nga kingi.
