OET interlinear REV 19:12

uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / metaphor

οἱ δὲ ὀφθαλμοὶ αὐτοῦ φλὸξ πυρός

the (Some words not found in SR-GNT: οἱ Δέ ὀφθαλμοί αὐτοῦ φλόξ πυρός καί ἐπί τήν κεφαλήν αὐτοῦ διαδήματα πολλά ἔχων ὄνομα γεγραμμένον ὅ οὐδείς οἶδεν εἰ μή αὐτός)

John is speaking as if the eyes of the one riding on the white horse were actually a flame of fire. This is something that could be taken literally within the world of the vision, but it is more likely that John means this as a comparison, as in [1:14](../01/14.md) and [2:18](../02/18.md). In that case, the point of the comparison would be that Jesus has eyes that are so bright and lively that they resemble a burning flame. See how you translated this earlier in the book. Alternate translation: [whose eyes also glow like a flame of fire]

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / explicitinfo

φλὸξ πυρός

(Some words not found in SR-GNT: οἱ Δέ ὀφθαλμοί αὐτοῦ φλόξ πυρός καί ἐπί τήν κεφαλήν αὐτοῦ διαδήματα πολλά ἔχων ὄνομα γεγραμμένον ὅ οὐδείς οἶδεν εἰ μή αὐτός)

It might seem that the expression a flame of fire contains extra information that would be unnatural to express in your language. If so, you could shorten it. Alternate translation: [flames]

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / activepassive

γεγραμμένον

˓having_been˒_written

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: [in writing]

Note 4 topic: grammar-connect-exceptions

ὃ οὐδεὶς οἶδεν, εἰ μὴ αὐτός

(Some words not found in SR-GNT: οἱ Δέ ὀφθαλμοί αὐτοῦ φλόξ πυρός καί ἐπί τήν κεφαλήν αὐτοῦ διαδήματα πολλά ἔχων ὄνομα γεγραμμένον ὅ οὐδείς οἶδεν εἰ μή αὐτός)

If it would appear in your language that John was contradicting himself by saying that no one knows this name and then saying that someone does know this name, you could reword this to avoid using an exception clause. Alternate translation: [that only he knows]

Note 5 topic: figures-of-speech / metonymy

ὃ οὐδεὶς οἶδεν, εἰ μὴ αὐτός

(Some words not found in SR-GNT: οἱ Δέ ὀφθαλμοί αὐτοῦ φλόξ πυρός καί ἐπί τήν κεφαλήν αὐτοῦ διαδήματα πολλά ἔχων ὄνομα γεγραμμένον ὅ οὐδείς οἶδεν εἰ μή αὐτός)

It may be helpful to begin a new sentence here. This could mean: (1) that no one except Jesus knows the meaning of the name. Alternate translation: [Only he knows the meaning of that name] (2) that no one except Jesus knows what the name is. Alternate translation: [Only he knows what that name is]
