Фаришта ва кичкина ўрама қоғоз
1 Мен самодан тушаётган бошқа кучли бир фариштани кўрдим. У булутга бурканган эди. Унинг боши узра камалак бор эди. Юзи қуёшдай порлар, оёқлари олов устунларидай ловуллаб турар эди. 2 Унинг қўлида кичкинагина очилган ўрама қоғоз бор эди. У ўнг оёғини денгиз устига, чап оёғини ер юзига қўйганича, 3 шер ўкиргандай қаттиқ ҳайқирди. У ҳайқирганда етти момақалдироқ ҳам тилга кириб, гулдурос овоз билан гапира бошлади. 4 Етти момақалдироқ гапирганда, мен уларнинг гапларини ёзмоқчи бўлдим. Лекин самодан бир овоз шундай деди:
— Етти момақалдироқнинг гапларини ёзма, уларни сир сақла!
5 Денгиз ва ер юзида турган, мен кўрган фаришта ўнг қўлини осмонга кўтарди. 6-7 У то абад барҳаёт Худо ҳақи онт ичди. Еру осмонни, денгиз ва уларни тўлдирган жамики жониворларни яратган Худо ҳақи онт ичиб, шундай деди:
— Худо пайғамбар қулларига Ўзининг сир тутган режасини маълум қилганди. Еттинчи фаришта карнай чалганда, Худо ўша режасини амалга оширади. Энди кечиктирмайди.
8 Самодан келган овоз менга яна деди:
— Бор, денгиз ва ер устида турган фариштанинг қўлидан очиқ ўрама қоғозни ол.
9 Мен фариштанинг ёнига бориб:
— Ўрама қоғозни менга беринг, — дедим. Фаришта менга деди:
— Мана, ол! Уни егин! У ичингни ачитиб юборади, оғзингга эса асалдай ширин таъм беради.
10 Мен ўрама қоғозни фариштанинг қўлидан олиб едим. У оғзимда асалдек ширин эди. Аммо уни ютганимдан кейин ичим ачишиб кетди.
11 Сўнг менга шундай деб айтишди:
— Сен яна кўп элатлар ҳақида, халқлар, миллатлару шоҳлар ҳақида башорат қилишинг керак.
1 And I saw another mighty angel come down from heaven, clothed with a cloud: and a rainbow was upon his head, and his face was as it were the sun, and his feet as pillars of fire: 2 And he had in his hand a little book open: and he set his right foot upon the sea, and his left foot on the earth, 3 And cried with a loud voice, as when a lion roareth: and when he had cried, seven thunders uttered their voices. 4 And when the seven thunders had uttered their voices, I was about to write: and I heard a voice from heaven saying unto me, Seal up those things which the seven thunders uttered, and write them not. 5 And the angel which I saw stand upon the sea and upon the earth lifted up his hand to heaven, 6 And sware by him that liveth for ever and ever, who created heaven, and the things that therein are, and the earth, and the things that therein are, and the sea, and the things which are therein, that there should be time no longer: 7 But in the days of the voice of the seventh angel, when he shall begin to sound, the mystery of God should be finished, as he hath declared to his servants the prophets. 8 And the voice which I heard from heaven spake unto me again, and said, Go and take the little book which is open in the hand of the angel which standeth upon the sea and upon the earth. 9 And I went unto the angel, and said unto him, Give me the little book. And he said unto me, Take it , and eat it up; and it shall make thy belly bitter, but it shall be in thy mouth sweet as honey. 10 And I took the little book out of the angel’s hand, and ate it up; and it was in my mouth sweet as honey: and as soon as I had eaten it, my belly was bitter. 11 And he said unto me, Thou must prophesy again before many peoples, and nations, and tongues, and kings.
