UTN uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / nominaladj

ὁ πρῶτος

the first

As the General Notes to this chapter discuss, John is using the adjective first as a noun to identify this particular angel. Your language may use adjectives in the same way. If not, you could translate this word with an equivalent phrase, and you could do the same with the similar expressions that describe the other six angels. Alternate translation: [the first angel]

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, here and for the other six angels you could use a cardinal number or an equivalent expression. Alternate translation: [angel number one]

Note 3 topic: grammar-collectivenouns

ἕλκος κακὸν καὶ πονηρὸν

˓an˒_ulcer evil and evil

Since John is referring to what happened to each person in a group of people, it might be more natural in your language to use the plural form of sore. Alternate translation: [bad and harmful sores]

Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / doublet

κακὸν καὶ πονηρὸν

evil and evil

The terms bad and harmful mean similar things. John is using the two terms together for emphasis. If it would be clearer for your readers, you could express the emphasis with a single phrase. Alternate translation: [very severe]

Note 5 topic: figures-of-speech / gendernotations

τοὺς ἀνθρώπους

the people

Although the term men is masculine, John is using the word in a generic sense that includes both men and women. If it would be helpful to your readers, you could use a term in your language that is clearly inclusive of both men and women. Alternate translation: [the people]
