UTNuW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / metaphor

ἐκ τοῦ οἴνου τοῦ θυμοῦ τῆς πορνείας αὐτῆς, πέπτωκαν πάντα τὰ ἔθνη

of the wine ˱of˲_the rage ˱of˲_the sexual_immorality ˱of˲_her /have/_drunk all the nations

See how you translated the similar expression in 17:2. Here, as there, this statement is not intended literally even within the world of this vision. Alternate translation: “all the nations have indulged in idolatry and greed with her”

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / hyperbole

πάντα τὰ ἔθνη

all the nations

The angel says all here as a generalization for emphasis. If it would be helpful in your language, you could use a different way to express the emphasis. Alternate translation: “nations throughout the world”

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / metaphor

οἱ βασιλεῖς τῆς γῆς μετ’ αὐτῆς ἐπόρνευσαν

the kings ˱of˲_the earth with her committed_sexual_immorality

See how you translated the similar expression in 17:2. This statement too is not intended literally. Alternate translation: Alternate translation: “the kings of the earth have joined her in being idolatrous and greedy”
