Revelation 16:2

Context
16:2 So 1  the first angel 2  went and poured out his bowl on the earth. Then 3  ugly and painful sores 4  appeared on the people 5  who had the mark of the beast and who worshiped his image.

1 tn Here καί (kai) has been translated as “so” to indicate the implied result of the directions given by the voice from the temple.

2 tn Grk “the first”; the referent (the first angel) has been specified in the translation for clarity.

3 tn Here καί (kai) has been translated as “then” to indicate the implied sequence of events within the vision.

4 tn Or “ulcerated sores”; the term in the Greek text is singular but is probably best understood as a collective singular.

5 tn Grk ‘the men,” but this is a generic use of ἄνθρωπος (anqrwpo") and refers to both men and women.
