Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / nominaladj
ὁ πρῶτος
the first
As the General Notes to this chapter discuss, John is using the adjective first as a noun to identify this particular angel. Your language may use adjectives in the same way. If not, you could translate this word with an equivalent phrase, and you could do the same with the similar expressions that describe the other six angels. Alternate translation: “the first angel”
Note 2 topic: translate-ordinal
ὁ πρῶτος
the first
As the General Notes to this chapter discuss, if your language does not use ordinal numbers, here and for the other six angels you could use a cardinal number or an equivalent expression. Alternate translation: “angel number one”
Note 3 topic: grammar-collectivenouns
ἕλκος κακὸν καὶ πονηρὸν
/an/_ulcer evil and evil
Since John is referring to what happened to each person in a group of people, it might be more natural in your language to use the plural form of sore. Alternate translation: “bad and harmful sores”
Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / doublet
κακὸν καὶ πονηρὸν
evil and evil
The terms bad and harmful 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: “very severe”
Note 5 topic: figures-of-speech / gendernotations
τοὺς ἀνθρώπους
the people
Although the term men is masculine, John is using the word in a generic sense that includes both men and women. If it would be helpful to your readers, you could use a term in your language that is clearly inclusive of both men and women. Alternate translation: “the people”
16:2 The malignant sores are reminiscent of the sixth plague of Egypt (Exod 9:9-11).
• mark of the beast: See Rev 13:13-17; 14:9-10.
OET (OET-LV) And went_away the first, and poured_out the bowl of_him on the earth, and it_became an_ulcer evil, and evil on the people which having the mark of_the wild_animal, and the ones prostrating before_the image of_it.
OET (OET-RV) So the first messenger went and poured out his bowl on the earth, all the people with the sea creature’s mark and the ones worshipping its image.
Note: The OET-RV is still only a first draft, and so far only a few words have been (mostly automatically) matched to the Greek words that they’re translated from.
