OET (OET-LV) And he_is_saying to_me:
Not you_may_seal the messages of_the prophecy of_ the _scroll this, the for time near is.

OET (OET-RV) Then he continued, “Don’t seal up the words of the prophecy of this book, because the time is near.

SIL Open Translator’s Notes:

Section 22:6–21: Conclusion

This is the last division of the book of Revelation and the last section. In it, the angel, Jesus, John, and the Holy Spirit spoke some final messages.

The angel of 21:9–22:5 affirmed that the book of Revelation is true. Then Jesus reminded the readers that he will return to earth. He also encouraged the readers to believe what was in this book. Then the angel told John to make this message known to other believers.

Then Jesus again spoke words of encouragement to believers. The Holy Spirit and the church invited all people to come to Jesus and believe in him. Then John warned everyone not to add any words to this book or remove any part of it. Jesus again reminded the readers that he will return. John agreed and ended the book with a blessing on God’s people.

Other examples of headings are:

Ending messages/announcements to endorse/approve the book

Final words to encourage the readers

Jesus, the angel, the Holy Spirit, and John conclude the book

22:10a

Then he told me,

22:10b

“Do not seal up the words of prophecy in this book,

22:10a–b

Do not seal up the words of prophecy in this book: The phrase seal up refers to putting a seal on something. Here a seal would prevent others from reading the book. The angel wanted John to let others know what was in the book. Other ways to translate this phrase are:

do not prevent others from knowing the words of the prophecy of this book

Share the words of the prophecy of this book, do not hide them

Do not keep secret the words of prophecy in this book (NCV)

See how you translated the word “sealed” in 5:1.

the words of prophecy in this book: This phrase indicates that this book contained the words of prophecy to which the angel referred. Other ways to translate this phrase are:

the prophetic words in this book (NLT)

the words of the prophecy of this scroll (NIV11)

See how you translated this phrase in 22:7.

22:10c

because the time is near.

the time is near: This clause indicates that the things in this revelation will happen soon. For example:

the time is near when these things will happen

See how you translated this clause in 1:3.

uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / doublenegatives

μὴ σφραγίσῃς

(Some words not found in SR-GNT: Καί λέγει μοί Μή σφραγίσῃς τούς λόγους τῆς προφητείας τοῦ βιβλίου τούτου ὁ καιρός γάρ ἐγγύς ἐστίν)

If it would be clearer in your language, you could use a positive expression to translate this double negative that consists of the negative particle not and the negative verb seal. Alternate translation: [Leave open]

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / metaphor

μὴ σφραγίσῃς

(Some words not found in SR-GNT: Καί λέγει μοί Μή σφραγίσῃς τούς λόγους τῆς προφητείας τοῦ βιβλίου τούτου ὁ καιρός γάρ ἐγγύς ἐστίν)

The angel is speaking as if John might literally seal his book closed once he has written it. The angel means that John should tell others what he has written in the book and not keep those things to himself. If it would be clearer in your language, you could state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: [Widely proclaim]

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / metonymy

τοὺς λόγους τῆς προφητείας τοῦ βιβλίου τούτου

(Some words not found in SR-GNT: Καί λέγει μοί Μή σφραγίσῃς τούς λόγους τῆς προφητείας τοῦ βιβλίου τούτου ὁ καιρός γάρ ἐγγύς ἐστίν)

The angel is using the term words to mean what John has said in this book by using words to describe the prophecy that God gave him. If it would be helpful in your language, you could state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: [what you have said in this book about the prophecy God gave you]

TSN Tyndale Study Notes:

22:10 Do not seal up: The angel expands John’s initial instruction to “write in a book” (1:11) and warns against curtailing its communication. Although some things are sealed—God does not reveal everything (cp. 10:4)—what has been written must be communicated so that people will understand the seriousness of the message and that the time is near (see 1:1, 3; 22:6-7; cp. Dan 12:4).

OET (OET-LV) And he_is_saying to_me:
Not you_may_seal the messages of_the prophecy of_ the _scroll this, the for time near is.

OET (OET-RV) Then he continued, “Don’t seal up the words of the prophecy of this book, because the time is near.

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.
