1. I saw another powerful angel come down from heaven. He was dressed in a cloud, and there was a rainbow over his head. His face was like the sun, and his feet were like columns of fire.
2. He held a small, opened scroll in his hand. He set his right foot on the sea and his left on the land.
3. Then he shouted in a loud voice as a lion roars. When he shouted, the seven thunders spoke with voices of their own.
4. When the seven thunders spoke, I was going to write it down. I heard a voice from heaven say, “Seal up what the seven thunders have said, and don’t write it down.”
5. The angel whom I saw standing on the sea and on the land raised his right hand to heaven.
