Wahyu 13:8

13:8 and all those who live on the earth will worship the beast, ¹  everyone whose name has not been written since the foundation of the world ²  in the book of life belonging to the Lamb who was killed. ³ 

Wahyu 13:15

13:15 The second beast ⁴  was empowered ⁵  to give life ⁶  to the image of the first beast ⁷  so that it could speak, and could cause all those who did not worship the image of the beast to be killed.

[13:8]  ¹ tn Grk “it”; the referent (the beast) has been specified in the translation for clarity.

[13:8]  ² tn The prepositional phrase “since the foundation of the world” is traditionally translated as a modifier of the immediately preceding phrase in the Greek text, “the Lamb who was killed” (so also G. B. Caird, Revelation [HNTC], 168), but it is more likely that the phrase “since the foundation of the world” modifies the verb “written” (as translated above). Confirmation of this can be found in Rev 17:8 where the phrase “written in the book of life since the foundation of the world” occurs with no ambiguity.

[13:8]  ³ tn Or “slaughtered”; traditionally, “slain.”

[13:15]  ⁴ tn Grk “it”; the referent (the second beast) has been specified in the translation for clarity.

[13:15]  ⁵ tn Grk “it was given [permitted] to it [the second beast].”

[13:15]  ⁶ tn Grk “breath,” but in context the point is that the image of the first beast is made to come to life and speak.

[13:15]  ⁷ tn Grk “of the beast”; the word “first” has been supplied to specify the referent.
