Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / metonymy
ἡ πόλις ἡ μεγάλη, ἡ ἔχουσα βασιλείαν ἐπὶ
the the city ¬the great ¬which having /a/_kingdom over
The angel is referring to the king who rules from the great city by association with that city itself. If it would be helpful in your language, you could use an equivalent expression or express the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: “the great city whose king has a kingdom over”
Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / abstractnouns
ἡ πόλις ἡ μεγάλη, ἡ ἔχουσα βασιλείαν ἐπὶ
the the city ¬the great ¬which having /a/_kingdom over
If your language does not use an abstract noun for the idea of kingdom, you could express the same idea in another way. Alternate translation: “the great city that rules over” or “the great city whose king rules over”
OET (OET-LV) And the woman whom you_saw is the city the great, which having a_kingdom over the kings of_the earth.
OET (OET-RV) The woman that you saw is the famous city whose leaders rule over the rulers of the earth.”
Note: The OET-RV is still only a first draft, and so far only a few words have been (mostly automatically) matched to the Hebrew or Greek words that they’re translated from.
