Revelation 10:10

* The two F.O.G. Bibles & Commentary below are currently a work in progress.

So I took the small scroll from the angel’s hand and ate it; and it was as sweet as honey in my mouth, but when I had eaten it, my stomach turned bitter.
Berean Standard Bible (BSB)
I took the little book out of the angel’s hand, and ate it up. It was as sweet as honey in my mouth. When I had eaten it, my stomach was made bitter.
World English Bible (WEB)
And{G2532} I took{G2983}{(G5627)} the little book{G974} out of{G1537} the angel's{G32} hand{G5495}, and{G2532} ate{G2719} it{G846} up{G2719}{(G5627)}; and{G2532} it was{G2258}{(G5713)} in{G1722} my{G3450} mouth{G4750} sweet{G1099} as{G5613} honey{G3192}: and{G2532} as soon as{G3753} I had eaten{G5315}{(G5627)} it{G846}, my{G3450} belly{G2836} was bitter{G4087}{(G5681)}.
Strong's King James
(10) I took the little scroll from the angel's hand and ate it up and in my mouth it was sweet like honey and when I had eaten it my stomach was made bitter!
The F.O.G*
[10] I took the little scroll from the angel's hand and ate it. Just as he said, it tasted sweet as honey in my mouth, but when I swallowed it, my stomach turned bitter. Divine revelation brings both the joy of knowing God's purposes and the burden of understanding their implications.
The F.O.G Paraphrase
And I took the little scroll out of the hand of the messenger, and did eat it up, and it was in my mouth as honey—sweet, and when I did eat it—my belly was made bitter;
