OET interlinear REV 8:7

uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit

ὁ πρῶτος ἐσάλπισεν

the first trumpeted

The word first implicitly means the first angel, and the word sounded implicitly means that he sounded his trumpet. You could indicate this in your translation if it would be helpful to your readers. Alternate translation: [the first angel sounded his trumpet]

Note 2 topic: translate-ordinal

ὁ πρῶτος

the first

As the General Notes to this chapter discuss, if your language does not use ordinal numbers, you can use cardinal numbers or equivalent expressions here and in verses 8, 10, and 12. Alternate translation: [angel number one]

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / activepassive

ἐβλήθη & κατεκάη & κατεκάη & κατεκάη

˱it˲_˓was˒_cast & ˓was˒_burned_up & ˓was˒_burned_up & ˓was˒_burned_up

If your language does not use these passive forms, you could express the ideas in active form or in another way that is natural in your language. Alternate translation: [the angel threw it … burned up … burned up … burned up]

Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / activepassive

τὸ τρίτον τῆς γῆς κατεκάη, καὶ τὸ τρίτον τῶν δένδρων κατεκάη, καὶ πᾶς χόρτος χλωρὸς κατεκάη

(Some words not found in SR-GNT: Καί ὁ πρῶτος ἐσάλπισεν καί ἐγένετο χάλαζα καί πῦρ μεμιγμένα ἐν αἵματι καί ἐβλήθη εἰς τήν γῆν καί τό τρίτον τῆς γῆς κατεκάη καί τό τρίτον τῶν δένδρων κατεκάη καί πᾶς χόρτος χλωρός κατεκάη)

If your language does not use this passive form, you could state this in active form. Alternate translation: [it burned up a third of the earth, a third of the trees, and all the green grass]

Note 5 topic: translate-textvariants

καὶ τὸ τρίτον τῆς γῆς κατεκάη

(Some words not found in SR-GNT: Καί ὁ πρῶτος ἐσάλπισεν καί ἐγένετο χάλαζα καί πῦρ μεμιγμένα ἐν αἵματι καί ἐβλήθη εἰς τήν γῆν καί τό τρίτον τῆς γῆς κατεκάη καί τό τρίτον τῶν δένδρων κατεκάη καί πᾶς χόρτος χλωρός κατεκάη)

Some ancient manuscripts include the phrase and a third of the earth was burned up. The ULT follows that reading. Other ancient manuscripts do not include that phrase. 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.
