Normally the OET discourages the reading of individual ‘verses’, but this view is only designed for doing comparisons of different translations.

The OET segments on this page are still very early looks into the unfinished texts of the Open English Translation of the Bible. Please double-check these texts in advance before using in public.

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / activepassive
ἐδόθη αὐτῷ
/was/_given ˱to˲_it
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. This could mean: (1) that the dragon enabled the beast to do this. Alternate translation: [the dragon enabled it] (2) that God allowed the beast to do this. Alternate translation: [God allowed it]
Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / activepassive
ἐδόθη αὐτῷ ἐξουσία
/was/_given ˱to˲_it authority
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. If you need to say who did the action, the context suggests that it was the dragon. Alternate translation: [the dragon gave it authority]
Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / doublet
πᾶσαν φυλὴν, καὶ λαὸν, καὶ γλῶσσαν, καὶ ἔθνος
every tribe and people and tongue and nation
The terms tribe, people, language, and nation mean similar things. John is using the four terms together to make a comprehensive statement. If it would be clearer for your readers, you could express the emphasis with a single phrase. Alternate translation: [every different people group]
Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / metonymy
πᾶσαν φυλὴν, καὶ λαὸν, καὶ γλῶσσαν, καὶ ἔθνος
every tribe and people and tongue and nation
John is referring to speakers of various languages by association with the languages themselves. If it would be helpful in your language, you could use an equivalent expression or express the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: [every tribe and people and speakers of every language and every nation]
