Wahyu 14:9-11

14:9 A ¹  third angel ²  followed the first two, ³  declaring ⁴  in a loud voice: “If anyone worships the beast and his image, and takes the mark on his forehead or his hand, 14:10 that person ⁵  will also drink of the wine of God’s anger ⁶  that has been mixed undiluted in the cup of his wrath, and he will be tortured with fire and sulfur ⁷  in front of the holy angels and in front of the Lamb. 14:11 And the smoke from their ⁸  torture will go up ⁹  forever and ever, and those who worship the beast and his image will have ¹⁰  no rest day or night, along with ¹¹  anyone who receives the mark of his name.”

Wahyu 20:10

20:10 And the devil who deceived ¹²  them was thrown into the lake of fire and sulfur, ¹³  where the beast and the false prophet are ¹⁴  too, and they will be tormented there day and night forever and ever.

[14:9]  ¹ tn Here καί (kai) has not been translated because of differences between Greek and English style.

[14:9]  ² tn Grk “And another angel, a third.”

[14:9]  ³ tn Grk “followed them.”

[14:9]  ⁴ tn For the translation of λέγω (legw) as “declare,” see BDAG 590 s.v. 2.e.

[14:10]  ⁵ tn Grk “he himself.”

[14:10]  ⁶ tn The Greek word for “anger” here is θυμός (qumos), a wordplay on the “passion” (θυμός) of the personified city of Babylon in 14:8.

[14:10]  ⁷ tn Traditionally, “brimstone.”

[14:11]  ⁸ tn The Greek pronoun is plural here even though the verbs in the previous verse are singular.

[14:11]  ⁹ tn The present tense ἀναβαίνει (anabainei) has been translated as a futuristic present (ExSyn 535-36). This is also consistent with the future passive βασανισθήσεται (basanisqhsetai) in v. 10.

[14:11]  ¹⁰ tn The present tense ἔχουσιν (ecousin) has been translated as a futuristic present to keep the English tense consistent with the previous verb (see note on “will go up” earlier in this verse).

[14:11]  ¹¹ tn Grk “and.”

[20:10]  ¹² tn Or “misled.”

[20:10]  ¹³ tn Traditionally, “brimstone.”

[20:10]  ¹⁴ tn The verb in this clause is elided. In keeping with the previous past tenses some translations supply a past tense verb here (“were”), but in view of the future tense that follows (“they will be tormented”), a present tense verb was used to provide a transition from the previous past tense to the future tense that follows.
