Revelation 9:6

In ¹  those days people ²  will seek death, but ³  will not be able to ⁴  find it; they will long to die, but death will flee from them.

2Sa 1:9; Job 3:20-22; Job 7:15,16; Isa 2:19; Jer 8:3; Ho 10:8; Lu 23:30; Joh 4:8,9; Re 6:16

¹ tn Here καί (kai) has not been translated because of differences between Greek and English style.

² tn Grk “men”; but ἄνθρωπος (anqrwpo") is used in a generic sense here of both men and women.

³ tn Here καί (kai) has been translated as “but” to indicate the contrast present in this context.

⁴ tn The phrase “not be able to” was used in the translation to emphasize the strong negation (οὐ μή, ou mh) in the Greek text.
