1 Καὶ εἶδον 1ἄγγελον ἰσχυρὸν καταβαίνοντα ἐκ τοῦ οὐρανοῦ, περιβεβλημένον νεφέλην, καὶ 2ἡ ἶρις ἐπὶ 3τῆς κεφαλῆς 4αὐτοῦ, καὶ τὸ πρόσωπον αὐτοῦ ὡς ὁ ἥλιος, καὶ οἱ πόδες αὐτοῦ ὡς στύλοι πυρός∙
2 καὶ 5ἔχων ἐν τῇ χειρὶ αὐτοῦ 6βιβλίον 7ἀνεῳγμένον∙ καὶ ἔθηκεν τὸν πόδα αὐτοῦ τὸν δεξιὸν ἐπὶ 8τῆς θαλάσσης, τὸν δὲ εὐώνυμον ἐπὶ 9τῆς γῆς,
3 καὶ ἔκραξεν φωνῇ μεγάλῃ ὥσπερ λέων μυκᾶται∙ καὶ ὅτε ἔκραξεν, ἐλάλησαν αἱ ἑπτὰ βρονταὶ τὰς ἑαυτῶν φωνάς.
4 Καὶ ὅτε ἐλάλησαν αἱ ἑπτὰ 10βρονταί, 11ἔμελλον γράφειν∙ καὶ ἤκουσα φωνὴν ἐκ τοῦ οὐρανοῦ, 12λέγουσαν, Σφράγισον ἃ ἐλάλησαν αἱ ἑπτὰ βρονταί, καὶ 13μὴ αὐτὰ γράψῃς.
5 Καὶ ὁ ἄγγελος ὃν εἶδον ἑστῶτα ἐπὶ τῆς θαλάσσης καὶ ἐπὶ τῆς γῆς ἦρεν τὴν χεῖρα αὐτοῦ 14τὴν δεξιὰν εἰς τὸν οὐρανόν,
6 καὶ ὤμοσεν 15τῷ ζῶντι εἰς τοὺς αἰῶνας τῶν αἰώνων, ὃς ἔκτισεν τὸν οὐρανὸν καὶ τὰ ἐν αὐτῷ, καὶ τὴν γῆν καὶ τὰ ἐν αὐτῇ, 16καὶ τὴν θάλασσαν καὶ τὰ ἐν αὐτῇ, ὅτι χρόνος 17οὐκέτι ἔσται∙
7 18ἀλλ’ ἐν ταῖς ἡμέραις τῆς φωνῆς τοῦ ἑβδόμου ἀγγέλου, ὅταν μέλλῃ σαλπίζειν, 19καὶ ἐτελέσθη τὸ μυστήριον τοῦ θεοῦ, 20ὡς εὐηγγέλισεν 21τοὺς δούλους αὐτοῦ τοὺς προφήτας.
8 Καὶ ἡ φωνὴ ἣν ἤκουσα ἐκ τοῦ οὐρανοῦ, πάλιν 22λαλοῦσα μετ’ ἐμοῦ, καὶ λέγουσα, Ὕπαγε, λάβε τὸ 23βιβλιδάριον τὸ 24ἀνεῳγμένον ἐν τῇ χειρὶ 25τοῦ ἀγγέλου τοῦ ἑστῶτος ἐπὶ τῆς θαλάσσης καὶ ἐπὶ τῆς γῆς.
9 Καὶ 26ἀπῆλθον πρὸς τὸν ἄγγελον, λέγων αὐτῷ 27δοῦναί μοι τὸ 28βιβλιδάριον. Καὶ λέγει μοι, Λάβε καὶ κατάφαγε αὐτό∙ καὶ πικρανεῖ σου τὴν κοιλίαν, ἀλλ’ ἐν τῷ στόματί σου ἔσται γλυκὺ ὡς μέλι.
10 Καὶ ἔλαβον τὸ 29βιβλίον 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.
