Revelation 22:12

22:12 (Look! I am coming soon,

and my reward is with me to pay each one according to what he has done!

Revelation 22:20

22:20 The one who testifies to these things says, “Yes, I am coming soon!” Amen! Come, Lord Jesus!


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

tn The Greek term may be translated either “pay” or “pay back” and has something of a double meaning here. However, because of the mention of “wages” (“reward,” another wordplay with two meanings) in the previous clause, the translation “pay” for ἀποδοῦναι (apodounai) was used here.
