Note 1 topic: translate-ordinal
τῷ ἕκτῳ ἀγγέλῳ
˱to˲_the sixth angel
If your language does not use ordinal numbers, you can use a cardinal number here or an equivalent expression. Alternate translation: [to angel number six]
Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / activepassive
τοὺς δεδεμένους
the ¬which /having_been/_bound
If your language does not use this passive form, you could express the idea in active form or in another way that is natural in your language. The text does not say who bound these four angels, but it implies that God did it or commanded his own angels to do it. Alternate translation: [whom God had bound] or [whom God had commanded his own angels to bind]
Note 3 topic: translate-names
Εὐφράτῃ
Euphrates
The word Euphrates is the name of a river.
9:1-21 The fifth and sixth trumpets demonstrate how God’s judgment affects the people of the world and detail how futile it is to resist God. While these judgments should lead to repentance, they do not. Sin has such control over people that they choose to worship the evil forces that torture and murder them rather than repent and turn to God.

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.
