SIL Open Translator’s Notes:

Section 16:1–21: The angels poured the seven bowls

In this section, each of the seven angels in turn poured God’s wrath from his bowl. Each angel caused a different plague to happen on the earth. The people of the earth suffered greatly from the plagues, but they refused to repent.

Other examples of headings for this section are:

The seven angels poured God’s wrath from seven bowls

The seven bowls of God’s anger

16:16a

And they assembled the kings

¶ The demonic/evil spirits gathered the kings

Here John returns to describing his vision. This is not part of the quotation of Jesus’ words.

they assembled: The subject of the verb assembled is probably the three frog-like demonic spirits (16:13). For example:

the spirits brought (GNT)

Your translation should clearly refer to the three frog-like spirits. Your translation should not imply or refer to any group of believers in 16:15.

the kings: The Greek word is literally “them.” The pronoun refers to the kings (16:14b). Your translation should clearly refer to the kings.

16:16b

in the place that in Hebrew is called Armageddon.

to the place called Armageddon in the Hebrew language.
at Mount Magedon. Armagedon is its name in the language of the Jews.

the place that in Hebrew is called Armageddon: This phrase indicates that the name Armageddon is a Hebrew word. Hebrew is the language of the people of Israel, the Jews.

Armageddon: This word means “Mount Mageddon.” This name in Greek is spelled Harmagedōn.

uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: writing-pronouns

συνήγαγεν αὐτοὺς

˱he˲_gathered_together (Some words not found in SR-GNT: Καί συνήγαγεν αὐτούς εἰς τόν τόπον τόν καλούμενον Ἑβραϊστί Ἁρμαγεδών)

The pronoun they refers to the spirits of demons that John describes in [16:14](../16/14.md) and the pronoun them refer to the kings John describes in that same verse. It may be helpful to clarify this for your readers. Alternate translation: [the spirits of demons brought the kings together]

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / activepassive

τὸν καλούμενον

(Some words not found in SR-GNT: Καί συνήγαγεν αὐτούς εἰς τόν τόπον τόν καλούμενον Ἑβραϊστί Ἁρμαγεδών)

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: [that people call]

Note 3 topic: translate-transliterate

Ἁρμαγεδών
