OET interlinear REV 5:11

uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / infostructure

μυριάδες μυριάδων καὶ χιλιάδες χιλιάδων

myriads ˱of˲_myriads (Some words not found in SR-GNT: Καί εἶδον καί ἤκουσα φωνήν ἀγγέλων πολλῶν κύκλῳ τοῦ θρόνου καί τῶν ζῴων καί τῶν πρεσβυτέρων καί ἦν ὁ ἀριθμός αὐτῶν μυριάδες μυριάδων καί χιλιάδες χιλιάδων)

Since myriads are larger than thousands and John wants to convey what a great number of angels he saw and heard, it might be more natural to put the smaller number first and build up to the larger number. Alternate translation: [thousands of thousands and myriads of myriads]

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit

μυριάδες μυριάδων καὶ χιλιάδες χιλιάδων

myriads ˱of˲_myriads (Some words not found in SR-GNT: Καί εἶδον καί ἤκουσα φωνήν ἀγγέλων πολλῶν κύκλῳ τοῦ θρόνου καί τῶν ζῴων καί τῶν πρεσβυτέρων καί ἦν ὁ ἀριθμός αὐτῶν μυριάδες μυριάδων καί χιλιάδες χιλιάδων)

John may be using these multiples of large numbers to indicate implicitly that the number of angels was too great to count. You could indicate that in your translation if it would be helpful to your readers. Alternate translation: [too great to count]

Note 3 topic: translate-numbers

μυριάδες μυριάδων

myriads ˱of˲_myriads

A myriad is a hundred hundred or ten thousand. Your language may have its own term for this number. You could also use a general expression. Alternate translation: [tens of thousands of tens of thousands] or [hundreds of millions]
