19:1-10 This section expands the message of the sixth song of response (18:20; see study note on 18:1-24), which called for rejoicing. Various groups direct praises to the Lord. The praises can be divided into two sections: thankfulness for the destruction of the evildoers (19:1-4) and thankfulness for the reward of God’s people (19:5-8).
Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / 123person
πάντες οἱ δοῦλοι αὐτοῦ, καὶ οἱ φοβούμενοι αὐτόν
all ¬the slaves ˱of˲_him (Some words not found in SR-GNT: καὶ φωνὴ ἀπὸ τοῦ θρόνου ἐξῆλθεν λέγουσα αἰνεῖτε τῷ Θεῷ ἡμῶν πάντες οἱ δοῦλοι αὐτοῦ οἱ φοβούμενοι αὐτόν οἱ μικροὶ καὶ οἱ μεγάλοι)
The voice is actually not speaking in the third person about the people whom he wants to Praise … God. The voice is using a vocative form. However, if your language does not have a vocative form and it might appear as if the voice is using the third person for people whom he is addressing, you could use the second person in your translation. Alternate translation: “you his servants and you who fear him”
Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / idiom
οἱ φοβούμενοι αὐτόν
¬the you_all revering him
In this context, the word fearing does not mean to be afraid but to show respect and reverence. Alternate translation: “the ones who revere him” or “you who revere him”
Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / metaphor
οἱ μικροὶ καὶ οἱ μεγάλοι
¬the you_all ¬the small and ¬the great
The voice is speaking as if unimportant people were literally small and as if important people were literally large or great. If it would be clearer in your language, you could state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: “the unimportant and the important”
Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / nominaladj
οἱ μικροὶ καὶ οἱ μεγάλοι
¬the you_all ¬the small and ¬the great
The voice is using the adjectives small and great as nouns to mean certain kinds of people. Your language may use adjectives in the same way. If not, you could translate these words with equivalent phrases. Alternate translation: “both unimportant people and important people”
Note 5 topic: figures-of-speech / merism
οἱ μικροὶ καὶ οἱ μεγάλοι
¬the you_all ¬the small and ¬the great
The voice is using two extremes of people, small and great, to mean them and everyone in between. If it would be helpful in your language, you could use an equivalent expression or plain language. Alternate translation: “whatever your status”
