UTN uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / apostrophe

ἡ ὀπώρα σου τῆς ἐπιθυμίας τῆς ψυχῆς ἀπῆλθεν ἀπὸ σοῦ, καὶ πάντα τὰ λιπαρὰ καὶ τὰ λαμπρὰ ἀπώλετο ἀπὸ σοῦ

the fruit ˱of˲_you ˱of˲_the desire ˱of˲_the soul went_away from you and all the sleek_‹things› and the splendid_‹things› destroyed from you

As John relates this vision, here he addresses something that he knows cannot hear him, the city of Babylon in the vision, in order to show his readers in a strong way how he feels about it. If someone speaking your language would not do this, you could translate this as John speaking about Babylon rather than to Babylon. Alternate translation: [her autumn fruit, the desire of her soul, has gone away from her, and all the luxurious and the splendid has perished from her]

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / possession

ἡ ὀπώρα σου τῆς ἐπιθυμίας τῆς ψυχῆς

the fruit ˱of˲_you ˱of˲_the desire ˱of˲_the soul

In this possessive form, fruit is the object of desire rather than the result of desire. That is, this does not mean fruit that the soul’s desire has borne, but it means fruit that the soul desires to have. Alternate translation: [the autumn fruit that your soul desires to have]

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / metonymy

ἡ ὀπώρα σου τῆς ἐπιθυμίας τῆς ψυχῆς ἀπῆλθεν

the fruit ˱of˲_you ˱of˲_the desire ˱of˲_the soul went_away

Here the term soul represents the whole person by association with the way that each person has a soul. Alternate translation: [the autumn fruit that you desired has gone away]

Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / metonymy

ἡ ὀπώρα

the fruit

John is referring to ripe fruit by association with the way fruit ripens in the autumn. If it would be helpful in your language, you could use an equivalent expression or express the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: [ripe fruit]

Note 5 topic: figures-of-speech / metaphor

ἡ ὀπώρα & ἀπῆλθεν

the fruit & went_away

John is using autumn fruit to represent the rich pleasures that Babylon desired. If it would be clearer in your language, you could state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: [rich pleasures … have gone away]

Note 6 topic: figures-of-speech / parallelism

πάντα τὰ λιπαρὰ καὶ τὰ λαμπρὰ ἀπώλετο ἀπὸ σοῦ, καὶ οὐκέτι οὐ μὴ αὐτὰ εὑρήσουσιν

all the sleek_‹things› and the splendid_‹things› destroyed from you and no_longer by_no_means not them /will_be/_finding

These two phrases mean similar things. John is using repetition to emphasize the idea that the phrases express. If it would be helpful to your readers, you could combine them. Alternate translation: [all the luxurious and the splendid has perished from you forever]

Note 7 topic: figures-of-speech / nominaladj

πάντα τὰ λιπαρὰ καὶ τὰ λαμπρὰ

all the sleek_‹things› and the splendid_‹things›

John is using the adjectives luxurious and splendid as nouns to mean certain kinds of goods. Your language may use adjectives in the same way. If not, you could translate this phrase with an equivalent one. Alternate translation: [all the luxurious and splendid goods] or [everything that is luxurious and splendid]

Note 8 topic: figures-of-speech / doublet

πάντα τὰ λιπαρὰ καὶ τὰ λαμπρὰ

all the sleek_‹things› and the splendid_‹things›

The terms luxurious and splendid 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: [all the very luxurious goods]

Note 9 topic: figures-of-speech / idiom

οὐκέτι οὐ μὴ αὐτὰ εὑρήσουσιν

no_longer by_no_means not them /will_be/_finding

Here the expression will not be found means “will not be able to be found” or “will not be there.” Alternate translation: [they will not be there any longer]

Note 10 topic: figures-of-speech / doublenegatives

οὐκέτι οὐ μὴ αὐτὰ εὑρήσουσιν

no_longer by_no_means not them /will_be/_finding

The merchants are actually using a double negative here, “they will not be found at all no longer.” The second negative does not cancel the first to create a positive meaning. If for emphasis your language uses double negatives that do not cancel one another, it would be appropriate to use that construction here in your translation.

Note 11 topic: figures-of-speech / activepassive

οὐ μὴ αὐτὰ εὑρήσουσιν

by_no_means not them /will_be/_finding

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: [certainly no one will find them]
