Revelation 10:9 in Context — Revelation 10
7 Pero en los días de la voz del séptimo ángel, cuando él comenzare á tocar la trompeta, el misterio de Dios será consumado, como él [lo] anunció á sus siervos los profetas.
8 Y la voz que oí del cielo hablaba otra vez conmigo, y decía: Ve, y toma el librito abierto de la mano del ángel que está sobre el mar y sobre la tierra.
9 Y fuí al ángel, diciéndole que me diese el librito, y él me dijo: Toma, y trágalo; y él te hará amargar tu vientre, pero en tu boca será dulce como la miel.
10 Y tomé el librito de la mano del ángel, y lo devoré; y era dulce en mi boca como la miel; y cuando lo hube devorado, fué amargo mi vientre.
11 Y él me dice: Necesario es que otra vez profetices á muchos pueblos y gentes y lenguas y reyes.
