OET (OET-LV) The one doing_wrong, him_let_do_wrong still, and the filthy, him _let_be_being_filthy still, and the righteous, righteousness him_let_practice still, and the holy, him _let_be_sanctified still.

OET (OET-RV) Those who disobey God can continue to do so and those who are filthy can continue to be so, but those who obey God should continue to obey, and those who are godly should continue to be godly.”

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

22:11a

Let the unrighteous continue to be unrighteous,

Let the unrighteous continue to be unrighteous: This command is to everyone who is a wrongdoer. In some languages using plural forms is more natural. For example:

Those who do what is wrong/evil, continue doing what is wrong/evil!

the unrighteous: The Greek word that the BSB translates as the unrighteous refers to someone who does things that God says are not right to do. For example:

the one who is doing harm (NLT)

whoever is doing evil (NCV)

He that is unjust (KJV)

22:11b

and the vile continue to be vile;

the vile continue to be vile: This command is to everyone who is vile. Translate this clause in a similar way to 22:11. For example:

Those who are vile continue being vile!

vile: Here the Greek word that the BSB translates as vile refers to deeds that are morally bad or wrong. Other ways to translate this word are:

morally filthy (NET)

impure mind

immoral

dirty-minded (CEV)

22:11c

let the righteous continue to practice righteousness,

let the righteous continue to practice righteousness: The phrase the righteous indicates that the deeds of these people are upright and good in God’s eyes. Other ways to translate this clause are:

let the good persevere in their goodness (REB)

The one who is righteous must continue to act righteously (NET)

22:11d

and the holy continue to be holy.”

holy: Here the word holy refers to being set apart for special service to God. Here it probably also implies being without sin. Other ways to translate this word are:

devoted to God

set apart for God

pure/blemishless/sinless

uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / imperative3p

ὁ ἀδικῶν, ἀδικησάτω ἔτι; καὶ ὁ ῥυπαρὸς, ῥυπανθήτω ἔτι; καὶ ὁ δίκαιος, δικαιοσύνην ποιησάτω ἔτι; καὶ ὁ ἅγιος, ἁγιασθήτω ἔτι

the the the (Some words not found in SR-GNT: Ὁ ἀδικῶν ἀδικησάτω ἔτι καί ὁ ῥυπαρός ῥυπανθήτω ἔτι καί ὁ δίκαιος δικαιοσύνην ποιησάτω ἔτι καί ὁ ἅγιος ἁγιασθήτω ἔτι)

If your language does not use third-person imperatives in this way, you make these statements in another way that is natural in your language. Alternate translation: [May the one being unrighteous still be unrighteous, and may the filthy one still be filthy, and may the righteous one still do righteousness, and may the holy one still be holy] or [The one being unrighteous should still be unrighteous, and the filthy one should still be filthy, and the righteous one should do righteousness, and the holy one should still be holy]

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / litany

ὁ ἀδικῶν, ἀδικησάτω ἔτι

the the the (Some words not found in SR-GNT: Ὁ ἀδικῶν ἀδικησάτω ἔτι καί ὁ ῥυπαρός ῥυπανθήτω ἔτι καί ὁ δίκαιος δικαιοσύνην ποιησάτω ἔτι καί ὁ ἅγιος ἁγιασθήτω ἔτι)

In this verse, the angel is using a series of similar phrases in order to emphasize the idea that the phrases express. Try to translate each of these phrases in such a way as to show their similarity. You may also wish to summarize the idea behind the phrases beforehand, if that would be helpful to your readers. Alternate translation: [The time is so near that it is too late for people to change the way they are living. So let the one being unrighteous still be unrighteous]

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / genericnoun

ὁ ἀδικῶν & ὁ ῥυπαρὸς & ὁ δίκαιος & ὁ ἅγιος

the the the (Some words not found in SR-GNT: Ὁ ἀδικῶν ἀδικησάτω ἔτι καί ὁ ῥυπαρός ῥυπανθήτω ἔτι καί ὁ δίκαιος δικαιοσύνην ποιησάτω ἔτι καί ὁ ἅγιος ἁγιασθήτω ἔτι)

These phrases do not refer to specific people. They refer to anyone who has the quality that they name. Express this in the way that would be most natural in your language. Alternate translation: [anyone who is unrighteous … anyone who is filthy … anyone who is righteous … anyone who is holy]

Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / nominaladj

ὁ ῥυπαρὸς & ὁ δίκαιος & ὁ ἅγιος

the the the (Some words not found in SR-GNT: Ὁ ἀδικῶν ἀδικησάτω ἔτι καί ὁ ῥυπαρός ῥυπανθήτω ἔτι καί ὁ δίκαιος δικαιοσύνην ποιησάτω ἔτι καί ὁ ἅγιος ἁγιασθήτω ἔτι)

John is using the adjectives filthy, righteous, and holy as nouns to mean certain kinds of people. ULT adds one in each case to show that. Your language may use adjectives in the same way. If not, you could translate these words with equivalent phrases. Alternate translation: [the person who is filthy … the person who is righteous … the person who is holy]

Note 5 topic: figures-of-speech / metaphor

ὁ ῥυπαρὸς, ῥυπανθήτω ἔτι

the the the (Some words not found in SR-GNT: Ὁ ἀδικῶν ἀδικησάτω ἔτι καί ὁ ῥυπαρός ῥυπανθήτω ἔτι καί ὁ δίκαιος δικαιοσύνην ποιησάτω ἔτι καί ὁ ἅγιος ἁγιασθήτω ἔτι)

The angel is speaking as if someone who does wrong were literally filthy or dirty. If it would be clearer in your language, you could state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: [let the person who is wicked still be wicked]

Note 6 topic: figures-of-speech / abstractnouns

δικαιοσύνην

righteousness

If your language does not use an abstract noun for the idea of righteousness, you could express the same idea in another way. Alternate translation: [what is right]

TSN Tyndale Study Notes:

22:11 Vile people who refuse to accept God’s forgiveness will continue to be vile (see 16:9), yet John reminds the righteous to maintain their integrity. This verse is a warning to evildoers, and it calls the righteous to recognize the crucial significance of Christ’s return relative to their commitments and their actions.

OET (OET-LV) The one doing_wrong, him_let_do_wrong still, and the filthy, him _let_be_being_filthy still, and the righteous, righteousness him_let_practice still, and the holy, him _let_be_sanctified still.

OET (OET-RV) Those who disobey God can continue to do so and those who are filthy can continue to be so, but those who obey God should continue to obey, and those who are godly should continue to be godly.”

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.
