1 tn Here καί (kai) has been translated as “then” to indicate the implied sequence of events within the vision.
2 tn Grk “he”; the referent (the Lamb) has been specified in the translation for clarity here and throughout the rest of the chapter.
3 tc Most
4 tn The translation “to withstand (it)” for ἵστημι (Jisthmi) is based on the imagery of holding one’s ground in a military campaign or an attack (BDAG 482 s.v. B.4).
5 tn Grk “has passed.”
6 tn Here καί (kai) has not been translated because of differences between Greek and English style.
7 tn Or “The Gentiles” (the same Greek word may be translated “Gentiles” or “nations”).
8 tn Here καί (kai) has been translated as “but” to indicate the contrast present in this context.
9 tn See the note on the word “servants” in 1:1.
10 tn Grk “who fear.”
11 tn The words “the time has come” do not occur except at the beginning of the verse; the phrase has been repeated for emphasis and contrast. The Greek has one finite verb (“has come”) with a compound subject (“your wrath,” “the time”), followed by three infinitive clauses (“to be judged,” “to give,” “to destroy”). The rhetorical power of the repetition of the finite verb in English thus emulates the rhetorical power of its lone instance in Greek.
12 tn Or “who deprave.” There is a possible wordplay here on two meanings for διαφθείρω (diafqeirw), with the first meaning “destroy” and the second meaning either “to ruin” or “to make morally corrupt.” See L&N 20.40.
13 tn Here καί (kai) has not been translated because of differences between Greek and English style.
14 tn This is a generic use of ἄνθρωπος (anqrwpo"), referring to both men and women.
