| 1 | Il tenait à la main un petit livre ouvert ; et ayant posé le pied droit sur la mer et le pied gauche sur la terre, | And I saw another strong angel coming down out of heaven, arrayed with a cloud; and the rainbow was upon his head, and his face was as the sun, and his feet as pillars of fire; |
| 2 | il cria d'une voix forte, comme rugit un lion ; et quand il eut poussé ce cri, les sept tonnerres firent entendre leurs voix. | and he had in his hand a little book open: and he set his right foot upon the sea, and his left upon the earth; |
| 3 | Après que les sept tonnerres eurent parlé, je me disposais à écrire, mais j'entendis du ciel une voix qui disait : "Scelle ce qu'ont dit les sept tonnerres, ne l'écris point." | and he cried with a great voice, as a lion roareth: and when he cried, the seven thunders uttered their voices. |
| 4 | Alors l'ange que j'avais vu debout sur la mer et sur la terre, leva sa main droite vers le ciel, | And when the seven thunders uttered [their voices], I was about to write: and I heard a voice from heaven saying, Seal up the things which the seven thunders uttered, and write them not. |
| 5 | et jura par Celui qui vit aux siècles des siècles, qui a créé le ciel et les choses qui y sont, la terre et les choses qui y sont, la mer et les choses qui y sont, qu'il n'y aurait plus de temps, | And the angel that I saw standing upon the sea and upon the earth lifted up his right hand to heaven, |
| 6 | mais qu'aux jours où le septième ange ferait entendre sa voix en sonnant de la trompette, le mystère de Dieu serait consommé, comme il l'a annoncé à ses serviteurs, les prophètes. | and sware by him that liveth for ever and ever, who created the heaven and the things that are therein, and the earth and the things that are therein, and the sea and the things that are therein, that there shall be delay no longer: |
| 7 | Et la voix que j'avais entendue du ciel, me parla de nouveau et dit : "Va, prends le petit livre ouvert dans la main de l'ange qui se tient debout sur la mer et sur la terre." | but in the days of the voice of the seventh angel, when he is about to sound, then is finished they mystery of God, according to the good tidings which he declared to his servants the prophets. |
| 8 | Et j'allai vers l'ange, et je lui dis de me donner le petit livre. Il me dit : "Prends, et dévore-le; il sera amer à tes entrailles, mais dans ta bouche il sera doux comme du miel." | And the voice which I heard from heaven, [I heard it] again speaking with me, and saying, Go, take the book which is open in the hand of the angel that standeth upon the sea and upon the earth. |
| 9 | Je pris alors le petit livre de la main de l'ange et je le dévorai; et il était dans ma bouche doux comme du miel; mais quand je l'eus dévoré, il me causa de l'amertume dans les entrailles. | And I went unto the angel, saying unto him that he should give me the little book. And he saith unto me, Take it, and eat it up; and it shall make thy belly bitter, but in thy mouth it shall be sweet as honey. |
| 10 | Puis on me dit : "Il faut encore que tu prophétises sur beaucoup de peuples, de nations, de langues et de rois." | 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 when I had eaten it, my belly was made bitter. |
| 11 | Puis on me donna un roseau semblable à un bâton, en disant : "Lève-toi et mesure le temple de Dieu, l'autel et ceux qui y adorent. | And they say unto me, Thou must prophesy again over many peoples and nations and tongues and kings. |
