Exegesis
The prepositional phrase ek tou ouranou {ἐκ τοῦ οὐρανοῦ | ek toû ou-ra-noû} ‘from heaven’ underlines the heavenly origin of the message, and the participle legousan {λέγουσαν | lé-gou-san} ‘saying’ introduces the direct speech.
In context — Revelation 18:4
Then I heard another voice from heaven say, “Depart from her, My people, so that you do not partake in her sins , and so that you do not receive any of her plagues.”
