Revelation 16:6

16:6 because they poured out the blood of your saints and prophets,

so ¹  you have given them blood to drink. They got what they deserved!” ² 

Revelation 18:24

18:24 The ³  blood of the saints and prophets was found in her, ⁴ 

along with the blood ⁵  of all those who had been killed on the earth.”

[16:6]  ¹ tn Here καί (kai) has been translated as “so” to indicate that this judgment is the result of what these wicked people did to the saints and prophets.

[16:6]  ² tn Grk “They are worthy”; i.e., of this kind of punishment. By extension, “they got what they deserve.”

[18:24]  ³ tn Here καί (kai) has not been translated because of differences between Greek and English style.

[18:24]  ⁴ tn The shift in pronouns from second to third person corresponds to the Greek text.

[18:24]  ⁵ tn Grk “and of all.” The phrase “along with the blood” has been repeated from the previous clause for stylistic reasons.
