OET (OET-LV) And will_be_walking the nations by the light of_it, and the kings of_the earth are_bringing the glory of_them into it.

OET (OET-RV) The nations will be able to walk around from its light, and the kings on the earth will bring their best into the city.

uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / metaphor

περιπατήσουσιν τὰ ἔθνη διὰ τοῦ φωτὸς αὐτῆς

˓will_be˒_walking (Some words not found in SR-GNT: Καί περιπατήσουσιν τά ἔθνη διά τοῦ φωτός αὐτῆς καί οἱ βασιλεῖς τῆς γῆς φέρουσιν τήν δόξαν αὐτῶν εἰς αὐτήν)

John is speaking as if the nations would literally know where to walk because they would see well by the light from the city. In this context, the word walk figuratively means how people live and behave, and so the word light represents good guidance about how to live and behave. If it would be clearer in your language, you could state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: [the people in the city will live in such a way as to guide the nations about how to live as God wishes]

Note 2 topic: translate-textvariants

τὰ ἔθνη

(Some words not found in SR-GNT: Καί περιπατήσουσιν τά ἔθνη διά τοῦ φωτός αὐτῆς καί οἱ βασιλεῖς τῆς γῆς φέρουσιν τήν δόξαν αὐτῶν εἰς αὐτήν)

Some ancient manuscripts read the nations. ULT follows that reading. Other ancient manuscripts read “the nations that are saved.” If a translation of the Bible exists in your region, you may wish to use the reading that it uses. If a translation of the Bible does not exist in your region, you may wish to use the reading of ULT.

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / metonymy

οἱ βασιλεῖς τῆς γῆς φέρουσιν τὴν δόξαν αὐτῶν εἰς αὐτήν

the kings ˱of˲_the earth ˓are˒_bringing (Some words not found in SR-GNT: Καί περιπατήσουσιν τά ἔθνη διά τοῦ φωτός αὐτῆς καί οἱ βασιλεῖς τῆς γῆς φέρουσιν τήν δόξαν αὐτῶν εἰς αὐτήν)

By their glory, John may mean by association symbols of royal power, such as crowns, scepters, and robes. He may be describing a situation like the one in [4:10](../04/10.md), where he saw the 24 elders “lay their crowns before the throne” to acknowledge God as the Supreme Ruler. If it would be helpful in your language, you could use an equivalent expression or express the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: [the kings of the earth will come into the city and lay their royal crowns, scepters, and robes before God’s throne to acknowledge him as the Supreme Ruler]

TSN Tyndale Study Notes:

21:24-25 The nations: God’s promise to Abraham is fulfilled (Gen 12:3; see Isa 2:3).
• In Revelation, the kings of the world usually refer to God’s enemies (Rev 6:15; 17:18; 18:3, 9). Now that the enemies have been destroyed (16:9, 11; 19:1-2, 19-21), the picture is of God’s glory as reflected in those people who have repented (14:6-7; cp. 11:13) and walk with God (5:9; 15:4).
• The gates that are never . . . closed contrast with the ancient scene in which closed gates protected cities from enemies, particularly at night. The people enjoy peace and security in God’s supremacy (see Isa 60:11). God’s enemies have been destroyed, and fear and failure have ended (see Zech 14:7; John 11:8-10; 12:35-36).

OET (OET-RV) The nations will be able to walk around from its light, and the kings on the earth will bring their best into the city.

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.
