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.

UTN uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit

ὧν οὐ γέγραπται τὸ ὄνομα αὐτοῦ ἐν τῷ βιβλίῳ τῆς ζωῆς τοῦ Ἀρνίου, τοῦ ἐσφαγμένου ἀπὸ καταβολῆς κόσμου

whom not /has_been/_written the name ˱of˲_him in (Some words not found in SR-GNT: καὶ προσκυνήσουσιν αὐτὸν πάντες οἱ κατοικοῦντες ἐπὶ τῆς γῆς ὧν οὐ γέγραπται τὸ ὄνομα αὐτοῦ ἐν βιβλίῳ τῆς ζωῆς τοῦ Ἀρνίου τοῦ ἐσφαγμένου ἀπὸ καταβολῆς κόσμου)

This could mean implicitly: (1) that the Lamb was slain from the foundation of the world, that is, God’s purpose from before all time was for Jesus to give his life as a sacrifice. Alternate translation: [all whose names are not written in the Book of Life that belongs to the Lamb whom God appointed from the foundation of the world to die as a sacrifice] (2) that if a person worships the beast, this means that his name was not written in the Book of Life … from the foundation of the world. Alternate translation: [all whose names have not been written in the Book of Life of the Lamb having been slain from the foundation of the world]

Note 2 topic: grammar-collectivenouns

ὧν οὐ γέγραπται τὸ ὄνομα αὐτοῦ

whom not /has_been/_written the name ˱of˲_him

Since John is referring to a group of people, it might be more natural in your language to use the plural form of name. Alternate translation: [those whose names have not been written]

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / activepassive

ὧν οὐ γέγραπται τὸ ὄνομα αὐτοῦ

whom not /has_been/_written the name ˱of˲_him

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 God. Alternate translation: [those whose names God has not written]

Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / activepassive

τοῦ ἐσφαγμένου

˱of˲_the ¬which /having_been/_slain

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. Alternate translation: [whom God appointed to die as a sacrifice]

Note 5 topic: figures-of-speech / abstractnouns

ἀπὸ καταβολῆς κόσμου

from /the/_foundation ˱of˲_/the/_earth

If your language does not use an abstract noun for the idea of foundation, you could express the same idea in another way. Alternate translation: [since God founded the world]
