1I saw another 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.
2He had in his hand a little book open. He set his right foot on the sea, and his left on the land.
3He cried with a loud voice, as a lion roars. When he cried, the seven thunders uttered their voices.
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."
5The angel who I saw standing on the sea and on the land lifted up his right hand to the sky,
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,
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.
