Revelation 10:6
Compare all
4 Now when the seven thunders1 uttered their voices, I was about to write; but I heard a voice from heaven saying2 to me, a“Seal up the things which the seven thunders uttered, and do not write them.”  
5 The angel whom I saw standing on the sea and on the land araised up his hand to heaven  
6 and swore by Him who lives forever and ever, awho created heaven and the things that are in it, the earth and the things that are in it, and the sea and the things that are in it, bthat there should be delay no longer,  
7 but ain the days of the sounding of the seventh angel, when he is about to sound, the mystery of God would be finished, as He declared to His servants the prophets.  

John Eats the Little Book

8 Then the voice which I heard from heaven spoke to me again and said, “Go, take the little book which is open in the hand of the angel who stands on the sea and on the earth.”
9 So I went to the angel and said to him, “Give me the little book.” And he said to me, a“Take and eat it; and it will make your stomach bitter, but it will be as sweet as honey in your mouth.”

Revelation 10:6

By him that liveth for ever and ever - The eternal, self-existent Jehovah, the Maker of all things.

That there should be time no longer - That the great counsels relative to the events already predicted should be immediately fulfilled, and that there should be no longer delay. This has no reference to the day of judgment.
