這時我看見一隻手向我伸來，手中拿著書卷。

我观看，见有一只手向我伸出来，手中有一书卷。

我观看，看哪，有一只手向我伸来；看哪，手中有一书卷。

我观看，看哪，有一只手向我伸来；看哪，手中有一书卷。

这时我看见一只手向我伸来，手中拿着书卷。

我观看，看见一只手向我伸过来，手中有一卷书卷。

我觀看，見有一隻手向我伸出來，手中有一書卷。

我觀看，看哪，有一隻手向我伸來；看哪，手中有一書卷。

我觀看，看哪，有一隻手向我伸來；看哪，手中有一書卷。

我觀看，看見一隻手向我伸過來，手中有一卷書卷。

我看了看，只見有一隻手向我面前伸來，手中還有一卷書卷。

我觀之、見有手向我而伸、手中有卷、

我見有手、手執卷、

我見有一手、向我而伸、手中有卷、

Then I looked, and I saw a hand stretched out to me. In it was a scroll,

Then I looked up. I saw a hand reach out to me. A scroll was in it.

And when I looked, behold, a hand was stretched out to me, and behold, a scroll of a book was in it.

Then I looked and saw a hand reaching out to me. It held a scroll,

So I looked and saw a hand reaching out to me, and there was a written scroll in it.

Then I looked, and behold, a hand was extended to me; and behold, a scroll was in it.

Now when I looked, there was a hand stretched out to me; and behold, a scroll of a book was in it.

And when I looked, behold, a hand was put forth unto me; and, lo, a roll of a book was therein;

So I looked and saw a hand reaching out to me, and there was a written scroll in it.

And when I looked, behold, an hand[ was] sent unto me; and, lo, a roll of a book[ was] therein;

Then I looked and realized a hand was stretched out to me, and in it was a written scroll.

When I looked, behold, a hand was stretched out to me; and, behold, a scroll of a book was in it.

祂好像伸出一隻手，抓住我的頭髮。在異象中，靈把我舉到天地之間，將我帶到耶路撒冷聖殿內院的北門，那裡供奉著惹耶和華憤恨的神像。

接著，我看見坐在寶座上的那位右手拿著一卷內外寫著字、用七個印封住的書。有一位大力天使高聲問道：「誰有資格揭開那七個封印，打開那卷書？」可是，天上、地上、甚至地底下都沒有人有資格揭開並閱讀那卷書。我見無人有資格揭開並閱讀那卷書，便放聲大哭。有一位長老對我說：「不要哭。你看，猶大支派的獅子、大衛的根已經得勝了！祂能揭開那七個封印，打開那卷書。」

祂對我說：「人子啊，你要把得到的吃下去，要吃下這書卷，然後去向以色列人傳講。」

忽然有一隻手輕拍我，扶我用膝和手掌支撐起身體。

先前從天上對我說話的聲音又吩咐我：「你去，從那位腳踏海洋陸地的天使手中把展開的小書卷拿來。」於是，我走到那天使面前，請他將小書卷給我。他對我說：「拿去，把它吃了。你的腹中會感到苦澀，可是你口中會覺得甘甜如蜜。」我就從那天使手中接過小書卷，將它吃了，我口中果然甘甜如蜜，之後腹中覺得苦澀。那天使又對我說：「你必要再對許多民族、國家、語言族群、君王說預言。」

後來，有一位樣子像人的用手摸我的嘴唇，我便開口對站在我面前的說：「我主啊，因為這異象，我痛苦不堪，毫無氣力。僕人我怎能跟我主說話？我現在渾身無力，沒有氣息。」於是，那位樣子像人的再次摸我，使我有力量。

突然，有人手的指頭出現，在燈臺對面王宮的粉牆上寫字。王看見那隻手在寫字，

「你拿一個卷軸來，把從約西亞登基直到現在我告訴你有關以色列、猶大和各國的事都寫在上面。

於是我說，『上帝啊，我來是要遵行你的旨意，我的事都記在聖經上了。』」

然後，耶和華伸手摸我的口，對我說：「看啊，我已把我的話放在你口中。
