Wahyu 7:9

7:9 After these things I looked, and here was ³  an enormous crowd that no one could count, made up of persons from every nation, tribe, ⁴  people, and language, standing before the throne and before the Lamb dressed in long white robes, and with palm branches in their hands.

[6:9]  ¹ tn Here καί (kai) has been translated as “now” to indicate the introduction of a new and somewhat different topic after the introduction of the four riders.

[6:9]  ² tn Or “murdered.” See the note on the word “butcher” in 6:4.

[7:9]  ³ tn The phrase “and here was” expresses the sense of καὶ ἰδού (kai idou).

[7:9]  ⁴ tn Here καί (kai) has not been translated before each of the following categories, since English normally uses a coordinating conjunction only between the last two elements in a series of three or more.
