And I went away unto the messenger, asking him to give me the little scroll; and he saith unto me - Take it, and eat it up; and it shall embitter thy belly, but, in thy mouth, shall be sweet as honey.

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 had eaten it, embittered was my belly.
