Wahyu 9:19

9:19 For the power ⁶  of the horses resides ⁷  in their mouths and in their tails, because their tails are like snakes, having heads that inflict injuries.

[2:23]  ¹ tn Grk “her children,” but in this context a reference to this woman’s followers or disciples is more likely meant.

[2:23]  ² tn Grk “I will kill with 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).

[2:23]  ³ tn Grk “I will give.” The sense of δίδωμι (didwmi) in this context is more “repay” than “give.”

[2:23]  ⁴ sn This pronoun and the following one are plural in the Greek text.

[2:23]  ⁵ tn Grk “each one of you according to your works.”

[9:19]  ⁶ tn See BDAG 352 s.v. ἐξουσία 2, “potential or resource to command, control, or govern, capability, might, power.”

[9:19]  ⁷ tn Grk “is.”
