SIL Open Translator’s Notes:

Section 5:6–14: Many people praised the Lamb

In this section, John described the one who was worthy to open the seals. He was like a lamb that had been killed. John also described those who worshiped the lamb. Then he wrote what they said.

Other examples of headings for this section are:

Every being/person praised the Lamb

Worship of the Lamb that was slain

The Lamb is praised/worshiped

5:14a

And the four living creatures said, “Amen,”

The four living beings said, “Amen,”
The four living beings said, “Even so,”

And the four living creatures: The Greek word that the BSB translates as living creatures is literally “living (ones).” The word refers to beings that are like angels yet symbolically look like animals (4:7). See how you translated this phrase in 4:6.

Amen: The word Amen is a Hebrew word that means “even so” or “it is true.” The word is used to agree with what was said. The Greek borrowed the Hebrew word. English borrowed this word as well.

In some languages people are not familiar with this word. If that is true in your language, you may want to:

Translate the meaning in your translation. For example:
It is so
True!
Borrow this word and spell it as people in your language would say it. You may then want to explain its meaning in a footnote. An example footnote is:
The word “amen” means “even so” or “it is true.”

See how you translated this word in 1:6.

5:14b

and the elders fell down and worshiped.

and the elders prostrated themselves and worshiped/honored God and the Lamb.
and the elders knelt and put their faces to the ground with arms outstretched and revered God and the Lamb.

fell down: Here the phrase fell down refers to kneeling and putting the face to the ground with arms outstretched toward someone. This position showed complete humility, and it honored the other person. Other ways to translate this phrase are:

prostrated themselves (NJB)

threw themselves to the ground (NET)

Some languages have a different action that shows humility and honors someone. If that is true in your language, you may want to use that word or phrase. See how you translated this phrase in 4:10 or 5:8.

worshiped: This word refers to honoring someone or something as sacred/divine. In some languages it is necessary to add who is worshiped. For example:

worshiped God and the Lamb

uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: translate-textvariants

οἱ πρεσβύτεροι ἔπεσαν καὶ προσεκύνησαν

the elders fell (Some words not found in SR-GNT: Καί τά τέσσαρα ζῷα ἔλεγον Ἀμήν Καί οἱ πρεσβύτεροι ἔπεσαν καί προσεκύνησαν)

Some ancient manuscripts read the elders fell down and worshiped. ULT follows that reading. Other ancient manuscripts add “the one who lives to the ages of the ages.” If a translation of the Bible exists in your region, you may wish to use the reading that it has. If a translation of the Bible does not exist in your region, you may wish to use the reading of ULT.

Note 2 topic: writing-symlanguage

ἀμήν!

(Some words not found in SR-GNT: Καί τά τέσσαρα ζῷα ἔλεγον Ἀμήν Καί οἱ πρεσβύτεροι ἔπεσαν καί προσεκύνησαν)

See how you translated Amen in [1:6](../01/06.md).

Note 3 topic: translate-symaction

ἔπεσαν

fell

Alternate translation: [bowed down respectfully]
