Apocalypse 10

1 Je vis un autre ange fort, qui descendait du ciel, revêtu d’une nuée, et ayant un arc-en-ciel sur la tête; son visage était comme le soleil, et ses pieds comme des colonnes de feu.

Then I saw another strong angel coming down from Heaven. He was robed in a cloud, and over his head was the rainbow. His face was like the sun, and his feet resembled pillars of fire.

2 Il avait en sa main un petit livre ouvert; et il posa son pied droit sur la mer, et le gauche sur la terre.

In his hand he held a small scroll unrolled; and, planting his right foot on the sea and his left foot on the land,

3 Puis il cria d’une voix forte, comme quand un lion rugit. Et lorsqu’il eut crié, sept tonnerres firent entendre leurs voix.

he cried out in a loud voice which resembled the roar of a lion. And when he had cried out, each of the seven peals of thunder uttered its own message.

4 Et quand les tonnerres eurent fait entendre leurs voix, moi j’allais écrire; mais j’entendis une voix du ciel qui me dit: Scelle ce qu’ont dit les sept tonnerres et ne l’écris pas.

And when the seven peals of thunder had spoken, I was about to write down what they had said; but I heard a voice from Heaven which told me to keep secret all that the seven peals of thunder had said, and not write it down.

5 Alors l’ange que j’avais vu se tenant debout sur la mer et sur la terre, leva sa main au ciel,

Then the angel that I saw standing on the sea and on the land, lifted his right hand toward Heaven.

6 Et jura par celui qui vit dans les siècles des siècles, qui a créé le ciel et ce qui est dans le ciel, la terre et ce qui est dans la terre, la mer et ce qui est dans la mer, disant: Il n’y aura plus de temps; (aiōn g165)

And in the name of Him who lives until the Ages of the Ages, the Creator of Heaven and all that is in it, of the earth and all that is in it, and of the sea and all that is in it, he solemnly declared, (aiōn g165)

7 Mais aux jours de la voix du septième ange, quand il commencera à sonner de la trompette, se consommera le mystère de Dieu, comme il l’a annoncé par les prophètes ses serviteurs.

"There shall be no further delay; but in the days when the seventh angel blows his trumpet--when he begins to do so--then the secret purposes of God are realized, in accordance with the good news which He gave to His servants the Prophets."

8 Et j’entendis la voix qui me parla encore du ciel, et me dit: Va et prends le livre ouvert de la main de l’ange qui se tient debout sur la mer et sur la terre.

Then the voice which I had heard speaking from Heaven once more addressed me. It said, "Go and take the little book which lies open in the hand of the angel who is standing on the sea and on the land."

9 J’allai donc vers l’ange, lui disant qu’il me donnât le livre. Et il me dit: Prends le livre et le dévore, et il te causera de l’amertume dans le ventre, mais dans ta bouche il sera doux comme du miel.

So I went to the angel and asked him to give me the little book. "Take it," he said, "and eat the whole of it. You will find it bitter when you have eaten it, although in your mouth it will taste as sweet as honey."

10 Je pris le livre de la main de l’ange, et je le dévorai; il était dans ma bouche doux comme du miel; mais quand je l’eus dévoré, il me causa de l’amertume dans le ventre.

So I took the roll out of the angel's hand and ate the whole of it; and in my mouth it was as sweet as honey, but when I had eaten it I found it very bitter.

11 Alors il me dit: Il faut encore que tu prophétises à un grand nombre de nations, de peuples, d’hommes de diverses langues, et de rois.

And a voice said to me, "You must prophesy yet further concerning peoples, nations, languages, and many kings."
