Revelation 10:5-7

Expanded Bible

⁵ Then the angel I saw standing on the sea and on the land raised his right hand to heaven [^Cas when taking an oath; Ex. 6:8; Deut. 32:40], ⁶ and he ·made a promise [swore an oath] ·by the power of the One [^Lby the One] who lives forever and ever [Dan. 12:7]. He is the One who ·made [created] the ·skies [or heavens] and all that is in them, the earth and all that is in it, and the sea and all that is in it [Gen. 1]. The angel ·promised [swore an oath], “There will be no ·more waiting [delay; ^Ltime]! ⁷ [^LBut] In the days when the seventh angel is ready to blow his trumpet, God’s ·secret [mystery; hidden plan] will be ·finished [completed]. This ·secret [mystery; hidden plan] is ·the Good News God told [or just as he announced] to his servants, the prophets [Amos 3:7; 1 Pet. 1:10–12].”
