TSNTyndale Study Notes:

11:18 The nations were filled with wrath when they refused to do as God commanded (see Ps 2). But things will now be different because God’s wrath has come. God will reward his holy people (see Rev 22:12) with new life as his children (see John 1:12; 20:31).
• fear your name: God’s name implies his nature; fearing God’s name means accepting who he is (see “Fear of the Lord” Theme Note).
• The end of the age will be the time to destroy those who have not accepted God’s love (see John 3:16-20). They will go into the lake of fire (Rev 20:15). This doom of God’s enemies is the third and final terror (11:14).


UTNuW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / activepassive

τὰ ἔθνη ὠργίσθησαν

the nations /were/_angered

If your language does not use this passive form, you could express the idea in active form or in another way that is natural in your language. Alternate translation: “the nations were furious”

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / personification

ἦλθεν ἡ ὀργή σου, καὶ ὁ καιρὸς τῶν νεκρῶν κριθῆναι

came the wrath ˱of˲_you and the time ˱for˲_the dead /to_be/_judged

John is speaking of God’s wrath as if it were a living thing that has come to the nations. If it would be helpful in your language, you could state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: “you are now punishing them and judging the dead"

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / ellipsis

ἦλθεν ἡ ὀργή σου, καὶ ὁ καιρὸς

came the wrath ˱of˲_you and the time

John is leaving out some of the words that in many languages a sentence would need in order to be complete. You can supply these words from the context if that would be clearer in your language. Alternate translation: “your wrath has come and the time has come”

Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / activepassive

τῶν νεκρῶν κριθῆναι

˱for˲_the dead /to_be/_judged

If your language does not use this passive form, you could express the idea in active form or in another way that is natural in your language. Alternate translation: “for you to judge the dead”

Note 5 topic: figures-of-speech / nominaladj

τῶν νεκρῶν

˱for˲_the dead

John is using the adjective dead as a noun to mean a certain kind of person. Your language may use adjectives in the same way. If not, you could translate this word with an equivalent phrase. Alternate translation: “people who have died”

Note 6 topic: figures-of-speech / metonymy

τοῖς φοβουμένοις τὸ ὄνομά σου

˱to˲_the the ˱to˲_the ˱to˲_the_‹ones› fearing the name ˱of˲_you

Here, name represents a person by association with the way that each person has a name. Alternate translation: “the ones fearing you”

Note 7 topic: figures-of-speech / metaphor

τοὺς μικροὺς καὶ τοὺς μεγάλους

the small and the great

The elders are speaking as if unimportant people were literally small and as if important people were literally large or great. If it would be clearer in your language, you could state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: “the unimportant and the important”

Note 8 topic: figures-of-speech / nominaladj

τοὺς μικροὺς καὶ τοὺς μεγάλους

the small and the great

The elders are using the adjectives small and great as nouns to mean certain kinds of people. Your language may use adjectives in the same way. If not, you could translate these words with equivalent phrases. Alternate translation: “both unimportant people and important people”

Note 9 topic: figures-of-speech / merism

τοὺς μικροὺς καὶ τοὺς μεγάλους

the small and the great

The elders are using two extremes of people, small and great, to mean them and everyone in between. If it would be helpful in your language, you could use an equivalent expression or plain language. Alternate translation: “whatever their status”
