UTN uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / activepassive

ἐγένετο ἡ βασιλεία αὐτοῦ ἐσκοτωμένη

became the kingdom ˱of˲_it /having_been/_darkened

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: “God darkened its kingdom”

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit

ἐγένετο ἡ βασιλεία αὐτοῦ ἐσκοτωμένη

became the kingdom ˱of˲_it /having_been/_darkened

John does not say specifically how God darkened the entire area where the beast ruled and so you may not wish to offer any explicit explanation in your translation. However, if your language would not describe something like this without saying how it happened, you could suggest an explanation. Alternate translation: “God made thick clouds cover the sun in order to darken its kingdom” or “God caused an eclipse of the sun in order to darken its kingdom”

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / abstractnouns

ἡ βασιλεία αὐτοῦ

the kingdom ˱of˲_it

If your language does not use an abstract noun for the idea of a kingdom, you could express the same idea in another way. Alternate translation: “the area that the beast ruled as king”

Note 4 topic: writing-pronouns

ἐμασῶντο τὰς γλώσσας αὐτῶν

˱they˲_/were/_biting the tongues ˱of˲_them

The pronoun they refers to the people whom God afflicted with painful sores, as John describes in 16:2 and as he makes clear in the next verse. It may be helpful to clarify this for your readers. Alternate translation: “the people whom God had punished with sores were chewing their tongues”
