Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / metaphor
μεθ’ ἧς ἐπόρνευσαν οἱ βασιλεῖς τῆς γῆς
with whom committed_sexual_immorality the kings ˱of˲_the earth
The angel is speaking as if the kings of the earth had literally committed sexual immorality with this prostitute. But that is not literally the case even within the world of this vision, since the angel explains in verse 18 that the prostitute symbolizes a city. So the sexual immorality likely symbolizes idolatry and, in light of chapter 18, greed. It may be helpful to begin a new sentence here. If it would be clearer in your language, you could state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: [The kings of the earth joined her in being idolatrous and greedy]
Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / metaphor
ἐμεθύσθησαν οἱ κατοικοῦντες τὴν γῆν ἐκ τοῦ οἴνου τῆς πορνείας αὐτῆς
/were/_being_drunk the_‹ones› dwelling_in the earth with the wine ˱of˲_the sexual_immorality ˱of˲_her
The angel is speaking as if the sexual immorality of the prostitute had been wine and that the ones inhabiting the earth had literally been intoxicated by that wine. But once again these things are not literally the case even within the world of this vision. The sexual immorality likely represents idolatry and greed and the intoxication likely represents deception. If it would be clearer in your language, you could state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: [she deceived the ones inhabiting the earth to make them indulge in idolatry and greed]
Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / activepassive
ἐμεθύσθησαν οἱ κατοικοῦντες τὴν γῆν ἐκ τοῦ οἴνου τῆς πορνείας αὐτῆς
/were/_being_drunk the_‹ones› dwelling_in the earth with the wine ˱of˲_the sexual_immorality ˱of˲_her
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: [the wine of her sexual immorality intoxicated the ones inhabiting the earth]
