Wahyu 10:10

10:10 So ¹  I took the little scroll from the angel’s hand and ate it, and it did taste ²  as sweet as honey in my mouth, but ³  when I had eaten it, my stomach became bitter.

Wahyu 11:3

11:3 And I will grant my two witnesses authority ⁴  to prophesy for 1,260 days, dressed in sackcloth.

Wahyu 16:15

16:15 (Look! I will come like a thief!

Blessed is the one who stays alert and does not lose ⁵  his clothes so that he will not have to walk around naked and his shameful condition ⁶  be seen.) ⁷ 

Wahyu 21:7

21:7 The one who conquers ⁸  will inherit these things, and I will be his God and he will be my son.

[10:10]  ¹ tn Here καί (kai) has been translated as “so” to indicate the implied result of the instructions given by the angel.

[10:10]  ² tn Grk “it was.” The idea of taste is implied.

[10:10]  ³ tn Here καί (kai) has been translated as “but” to indicate the contrast present in this context.

[11:3]  ⁴ tn The word “authority” is not in the Greek text, but is implied. “Power” would be another alternative that could be supplied here.

[16:15]  ⁵ tn Grk “and keeps.” BDAG 1002 s.v. τηρέω 2.c states “of holding on to someth. so as not to give it up or lose it…τὰ ἱμάτια αὐτοῦ Rv 16:15 (or else he will have to go naked).”

[16:15]  ⁶ tn On the translation of ἀσχημοσύνη (aschmosunh) as “shameful condition” see L&N 25.202. The indefinite third person plural (“and they see”) has been translated as a passive here.

[16:15]  ⁷ sn These lines are parenthetical, forming an aside to the narrative. The speaker here is the Lord Jesus Christ himself rather than the narrator. Many interpreters have seen this verse as so abrupt that it could not be an original part of the work, but the author has used such asides before (1:7; 14:13) and the suddenness here (on the eve of Armageddon) is completely parallel to Jesus’ warning in Mark 13:15-16 and parallels.

[21:7]  ⁸ tn Or “who is victorious”; traditionally, “who overcomes.”
