Revelation 9:15

9:15 Then ³  the four angels who had been prepared for this ⁴  hour, day, ⁵  month, and year were set free to kill ⁶  a third of humanity.

[8:8]  ¹ tn Here καί (kai) has been translated as “then” to indicate the implied sequence of events within the vision.

[8:8]  ² tn Here καί (kai) has not been translated because of differences between Greek and English style.

[9:15]  ³ tn Here καί (kai) has been translated as “then” to indicate the implied sequence of events within the vision.

[9:15]  ⁴ tn The Greek article τήν (thn) has been translated with demonstrative force here.

[9:15]  ⁵ tn The Greek term καί (kai) has not been translated here and before the following term “month” since English normally uses a coordinating conjunction only between the last two elements in a series of three or more.

[9:15]  ⁶ tn Grk “so that they might kill,” but the English infinitive is an equivalent construction to indicate purpose here.
