Revelation 10:2-4
1599 Geneva Bible
2 And he had in his hand a [a]little book open, and he put his right foot upon the sea, and his left 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 [b]And when the seven thunders had uttered their voices, I was about to write: but I heard a voice from heaven, saying unto me, [c]Seal up those things which the seven thunders have spoken, and write them not.
