Wahyu 3:3

Wahyu 3:10

3:10 Because you have kept ⁵  my admonition ⁶  to endure steadfastly, ⁷  I will also keep you from the hour of testing that is about to come on the whole world to test those who live on the earth.

11:15 Then ¹³  the seventh angel blew his trumpet, and there were loud voices in heaven saying:

18:21 Then ¹⁶  one powerful angel picked up a stone like a huge millstone, threw it into the sea, and said,

Babylon the great city will be thrown down ¹⁸

Wahyu 20:6

[3:3]  ¹ tn The expression πῶς εἴληφας καὶ ἤκουσας (pw" eilhfa" kai hkousa") probably refers to the initial instruction in the Christian life they had received and been taught; this included doctrine and ethical teaching.

[3:3]  ² tn Grk “keep it,” in the sense of obeying what they had initially been taught.

[3:3]  ³ tn The negation here is with οὐ μή (ou mh, the strongest possible form of negation in Koine Greek).

[3:3]  ⁴ tn Or “come on.”

[3:10]  ⁵ tn Or “obey.” For the translation of τηρέω (threw) as “obey” see L&N 36.19. In the Greek there is a wordplay: “because you have kept my word…I will keep you,” though the meaning of τηρέω is different each time.

[3:10]  ⁶ tn The Greek term λόγον (logon) is understood here in the sense of admonition or encouragement.

[3:10]  ⁷ tn Or “to persevere.” Here ὑπομονῆς (Jupomonhs) has been translated as a genitive of reference/respect related to τὸν λόγον (ton logon).

[5:5]  ⁸ tn Here καί (kai) has been translated as “then” to indicate the implied sequence within the narrative.

[5:5]  ⁹ tn Grk “says” (a historical present).

[5:5]  ¹⁰ tn The present imperative with μή (mh) is used here to command cessation of an action in progress (ExSyn 724 lists this verse as an example).

[5:5]  ¹¹ tn Or “has been victorious”; traditionally, “has overcome.”

[5:5]  ¹² tn The infinitive has been translated as an infinitive of result here.

[11:15]  ¹³ tn Here καί (kai) has been translated as “then” to indicate the implied sequence of events within the vision.

[11:15]  ¹⁴ tn Or “Messiah”; both “Christ” (Greek) and “Messiah” (Hebrew and Aramaic) mean “one who has been anointed.”

[14:3]  ¹⁵ tn Grk “elders, and no one.” This is a continuation of the previous sentence in the Greek text, but because of the length and complexity of the sentence a new sentence was started here in the translation.

[18:21]  ¹⁶ tn Here καί (kai) has been translated as “then” to indicate the implied sequence within the narrative.

[18:21]  ¹⁷ tn On ὅρμημα ({ormhma) BDAG 724 s.v. states, “violent rush, onset ὁρμήματι βληθήσεται Βαβυλών Babylon will be thrown down with violence Rv 18:21.” L&N 68.82 refers to the suddenness of the force or violence.

[18:21]  ¹⁸ sn Thrown down is a play on both the words and the action. The angel’s action with the stone illustrates the kind of sudden violent force with which the city will be overthrown.

[20:6]  ¹⁹ tn Grk “who has a share.”

[20:6]  ²⁰ tn The shift from the singular pronoun (“the one”) to the plural (“them”) in the passage reflects the Greek text: The singular participle ὁ ἔχων (Jo ecwn) is followed by the plural pronoun τούτων (toutwn). In the interests of English style, this is obscured in most modern translations except the NASB.
