Revelation 10:5

Context
10:5 Then 3  the angel I saw standing on the sea and on the land raised his right hand to heaven

1 tn Or “a third of the living creatures in the sea”; Grk “the third of the creatures which were in the sea, the ones having life.”

2 tn On the term translated “completely destroyed,” L&N 20.40 states, “to cause the complete destruction of someone or something – ‘to destroy utterly.’ τὸ τρίτον τῶν πλοίων διεφθάρησαν ‘a third of the ships were completely destroyed’ Re 8:9.”

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