Wahyu 15:8

Wahyu 18:8

18:8 For this reason, she will experience her plagues ⁹  in a single day: disease, ¹⁰  mourning, ¹¹  and famine, and she will be burned down ¹²  with fire, because the Lord God who judges her is powerful!”

Wahyu 21:9

The New Jerusalem Descends

21:9 Then ¹³  one of the seven angels who had the seven bowls full of the seven final plagues came and spoke to me, ¹⁴  saying, “Come, I will show you the bride, the wife of the Lamb!”

[11:6]  ¹ tn Or “authority.”

[11:6]  ² tn Grk “the days.”

[11:6]  ³ tn Because of the length and complexity of the Greek sentence, a new sentence was started here in the translation. Here καί (kai) has not been translated because of differences between Greek and English style.

[11:6]  ⁴ tn Or “authority.”

[15:1]  ⁵ tn Here καί (kai) has been translated as “then” to indicate the implied sequence within the narrative.

[15:1]  ⁶ tn Grk “seven plagues – the last ones.”

[15:8]  ⁷ tn Grk “power, and no one.” A new sentence was started here in the translation. Here καί (kai) has been translated as “thus” to indicate the implied result of the temple being filled with smoke.

[18:4]  ⁸ tn Here καί (kai) has been translated as “then” to indicate the implied sequence within the narrative.

[18:8]  ⁹ tn Grk “For this reason, her plagues will come.”

[18:8]  ¹⁰ tn Grk “death.” θάνατος (qanatos) can in particular contexts refer to a manner of death, specifically a contagious disease (see BDAG 443 s.v. 3; L&N 23.158).

[18:8]  ¹¹ tn This is the same Greek word (πένθος, penqo") translated “grief” in vv. 7-8.

[18:8]  ¹² tn Here “burned down” was used to translate κατακαυθήσεται (katakauqhsetai) because a city is in view.

[21:9]  ¹³ tn Here καί (kai) has been translated as “then” to indicate the implied sequence within the narrative.

[21:9]  ¹⁴ tn Grk “with me.” The translation “with me” implies that John was engaged in a dialogue with the one speaking to him (e.g., Jesus or an angel) when in reality it was a one-sided conversation, with John doing all the listening. For this reason, μετ᾿ ἐμοῦ (met’ emou, “with me”) was translated as “to me.” See also v. 15.

[22:18]  ¹⁵ tn Grk “written.”
