18:1-24 This chapter contains seven poetic responses to the fall of Babylon (or Rome; see study note on 17:5).
Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / quotemarks
Some versions continue the quotation of the voice from heaven that begins in verse 4 through to the end of this chapter. If a translation of the Bible exists in your region, you may wish to punctuate the quotation the way it does. If a translation of the Bible does not exist in your region, you may wish to punctuate the quotation the way ULT does and end it with verse 8.
Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / metaphor
οἱ & πορνεύσαντες
the & /having/_committed_sexual_immorality
Here as in 14:3, committing sexual immorality is a symbolic image for worshiping idols. If it would be clearer in your language, you could state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: “the ones having worshiped idols”
Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / doublet
κλαύσονται καὶ κόψονται
/will_be/_weeping and /will_be/_mourning
The terms weep and wail mean similar things. John is using the two terms together for emphasis. If it would be clearer for your readers, you could express the emphasis with a single phrase. Alternate translation: “will weep bitterly”
Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / metonymy
τὸν καπνὸν τῆς πυρώσεως αὐτῆς
the smoke ˱of˲_the burning ˱of˲_her
John is referring to the fire that will burn Babylon by association with the burning itself. If it would be helpful in your language, you could use an equivalent expression or express the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: “the smoke from the fire that is burning her”
