Isaiah 10:25

10:25 For very soon my fury ¹  will subside, and my anger will be directed toward their destruction.”

Isaiah 26:20

26:20 Go, my people! Enter your inner rooms!

Close your doors behind you!

Hide for a little while,

until his angry judgment is over! ² 

Matthew 24:22

24:22 And if those days had not been cut short, no one would be saved. But for the sake of the elect those days will be cut short.

John 16:20

16:20 I tell you the solemn truth, ³  you will weep ⁴  and wail, ⁵  but the world will rejoice; you will be sad, ⁶  but your sadness will turn into ⁷  joy.

James 5:10-11

5:10 As an example of suffering and patience, brothers and sisters, ⁸  take the prophets who spoke in the Lord’s name. 5:11 Think of how we regard ⁹  as blessed those who have endured. You have heard of Job’s endurance and you have seen the Lord’s purpose, that the Lord is full of compassion and mercy. ¹⁰ 

Revelation 7:14

7:14 So ¹¹  I said to him, “My lord, you know the answer.” ¹²  Then ¹³  he said to me, “These are the ones who have come out of the great tribulation. They ¹⁴  have washed their robes and made them white in the blood of the Lamb!

Revelation 21:4

21:4 He ¹⁵  will wipe away every tear from their eyes, and death will not exist any more – or mourning, or crying, or pain, for the former things have ceased to exist.” ¹⁶ 

¹ tc The Hebrew text has simply “fury,” but the pronominal element can be assumed on the basis of what immediately follows (see “my anger” in the clause). It is possible that the suffixed yod (י) has been accidentally dropped by virtual haplography. Note that a vav (ו) is prefixed to the form that immediately follows; yod and vav are very similar in later script phases.

² tn Heb “until anger passes by.”

³ tn Grk “Truly, truly, I say to you.”

⁴ tn Or “wail,” “cry.”

⁵ tn Or “lament.”

⁶ tn Or “sorrowful.”

⁷ tn Grk “will become.”

¹⁰ sn An allusion to Exod 34:6; Neh 9:17; Ps 86:15; 102:13; Joel 2:13; Jonah 4:2.

¹¹ tn Here καί (kai) has been translated as “so” to indicate the implied result of the previous question.

¹² tn Though the expression “the answer” is not in the Greek text, it is clearly implied. Direct objects in Greek were frequently omitted when clear from the context.

¹³ tn Here καί (kai) has been translated as “then” to indicate the implied sequence of events within the vision.

¹⁴ tn Because of the length and complexity of the Greek sentence, a new sentence was started here in the translation. Here καί (kai) has not been translated because of differences between Greek and English style.

¹⁵ tn Grk “God, and he.” Because of the length and complexity of the Greek sentence, a new sentence was started here in the translation. Here καί (kai) has not been translated.

¹⁶ tn For the translation of ἀπέρχομαι (apercomai; here ἀπῆλθαν [aphlqan]) L&N 13.93 has “to go out of existence – ‘to cease to exist, to pass away, to cease.’”
