βασιλείαν
/a/_kingdom
If your language does not use an abstract noun for the idea of a kingdom, you could express the same idea in another way. Alternate translation: “authority to rule as kings”
Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / idiom
μίαν ὥραν
˱for˲_one hour
In the ancient world, an hour was the shortest time span that people envisioned. In this context, the term does not mean a literal hour of 60 minutes. It means the shortest time imaginable. If it would be helpful in your language, you could state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: “for just a little while”
17:12-13 The ten horns, symbolic of the world kingdoms that follow the beast, rule simultaneously under his direction. While these verses have caused speculation concerning a ten-nation confederacy (from the client kingdoms of Rome, to the states opposed to the Holy Roman Empire, to the European Union), these conjectures are beside the point, which is that all nations opposed to God will be defeated (17:14).
OET (OET-LV) And the ten horns which you_saw, ten kings are, who a_kingdom thus received, but authority as for_one kings hour they_are_receiving with the wild_animal.
OET (OET-RV) The ten horns that you saw are ten rulers who haven’t received a domain yet to rule, but they are receiving authority as rulers with the wild animal for one hour.
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.
