OET (OET-LV) And I_heard another voice from the heaven saying:
Come_out the people of_me out_of her, in_order_that not you_all_may_participate in_the sins of_her, and of the plagues of_her, in_order_that not you_all_may_receive,

OET (OET-RV) Then I heard someone else from heaven saying,
 ⇔ “Come out from her, my people,
 ⇔ so that you won’t participate in her sins
 ⇔ and so that you won’t be on the receiving end of the disasters intended for her,

SIL Open Translator’s Notes:

Section 18:1–24: Announcements/Messages about Babylon

In this section, three heavenly beings each announce something about Babylon. The first announcement is that the city is destroyed. Her riches and prosperity have been taken away.

The second announcement is that God’s people should leave Babylon before God destroys her. It also describes how kings and others mourn over the destroyed city.

The third announcement is that Babylon will never be built again.

Other examples of headings for this section are:

An angel announced that Babylon was destroyed, and some groups are sad

Announcements about the destruction of Babylon

Various people talk about Babylon

18:4a

Then I heard another voice from heaven say:

I heard another voice from heaven say: The angel (18:1a) stopped speaking in 18:3c. Now John heard someone else speaking. The speaker was probably someone speaking on God’s behalf. Use a word or phrase that can refer to anyone in heaven. For example:

I heard someone else speaking from heaven. He said

I heard another person/being say from heaven on God’s behalf

heaven: Here the word heaven refers to the place where God lives.

18:4b

“Come out of her, My people,

Come out of her, My people: The phrase My people indicates to whom the voice was speaking. In some languages it is more natural to have this phrase at the beginning of the speech. For example:

My people, come out of her

Come out of her: This command warns believers to leave Babylon before the beast and the ten kings (17:16) destroy the city. But the warning is spoken after the angel describes Babylon as being destroyed (17:16, 18:2). So you may want to explain that in a footnote. An example footnote is:

This command warns believers to flee before Babylon is destroyed.

My people: This phrase refers to believers.

My: This word refers to God. These were God’s people. The voice was telling them God’s message.

18:4c

so that you will not share in her sins

so that you will not share in her sins: The phrase so that introduces the purpose for the believers to leave the city. The believers should leave to make sure that they do not follow her sinful ways. Other ways to translate this clause are:

you do not take part in her sins (NRSV)

you will not participate in her sins (NASB)

share: Here the Greek word refers to doing something with someone as he is doing it. God does not want believers to follow Babylon and sin as she does. For example:

participate (NASB)

18:4d

or contract any of her plagues.

or contract any of her plagues: The conjunction or introduces another purpose for the believers to leave the city. If believers stay in the city, they might suffer the plagues that God will send upon her. Other ways to translate this clause are:

so that you do not suffer any of her plagues

you must not share in her punishment (GNT)

her plagues: The word plagues refers to disasters that harm a lot of people. It can refer to diseases that kill many people. It can refer to locusts that damage many crops. Here the word probably refers to Babylon’s suffering in 17:16.

Some languages do not have a general word such as plagues. If that is true in your language, you may need to use a descriptive phrase. For example:

things that cause her people to suffer

things that cause much death in her

See how you translated the word plagues in 6:8 or 15:1.

uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / metonymy

ἤκουσα ἄλλην φωνὴν ἐκ τοῦ οὐρανοῦ λέγουσαν

˱I˲_heard another (Some words not found in SR-GNT: Καί ἤκουσα ἄλλην φωνήν ἐκ τοῦ οὐρανοῦ λέγουσαν Ἐξέλθατε ὁ λαός μού ἐξ αὐτῆς ἵνα μή συγκοινωνήσητε ταῖς ἁμαρτίαις αὐτῆς καί ἐκ τῶν πληγῶν αὐτῆς ἵνα μή λάβητε)

John is referring to someone speaking by association with the voice that the person is using to speak. If it would be helpful in your language, you could use an equivalent expression or express the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: [I heard someone speaking from heaven and saying]

OET (OET-LV) And I_heard another voice from the heaven saying:
Come_out the people of_me out_of her, in_order_that not you_all_may_participate in_the sins of_her, and of the plagues of_her, in_order_that not you_all_may_receive,

OET (OET-RV) Then I heard someone else from heaven saying,
 ⇔ “Come out from her, my people,
 ⇔ so that you won’t participate in her sins
 ⇔ and so that you won’t be on the receiving end of the disasters intended for her,

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.

Acknowledgements: The SR Greek text, lemmas, morphology, and VLT gloss are all thanks to the CNTR.
