Revelation 9:12

9:12 The first woe has passed, but ¹  two woes are still coming after these things!

Revelation 9:17

9:17 Now ²  this is what the horses and their riders ³  looked like in my ⁴  vision: The riders had breastplates that were fiery red, ⁵  dark blue, ⁶  and sulfurous ⁷  yellow in color. ⁸  The ⁹  heads of the horses looked like lions’ heads, and fire, smoke, and sulfur ¹⁰  came out of their mouths.

Revelation 11:14

11:14 The second woe has come and gone; ¹¹  the third is coming quickly.

[9:12]  ¹ tn Grk “behold.” Here ἰδού (idou) has been translated as “but” to indicate the contrast present in the context.

[9:17]  ² tn Here καί (kai) has been translated as “now” to indicate the introduction of the description of the horses and riders, which is somewhat parenthetical in the narrative.

[9:17]  ³ tn Grk “and those seated on them.”

[9:17]  ⁴ tn Grk “the vision”; the Greek article has been translated as a possessive pronoun (ExSyn 215).

[9:17]  ⁵ tn L&N 79.31 states, “‘fiery red’ (probably with a tinge of yellow or orange).”

[9:17]  ⁶ tn On this term BDAG 1022 s.v. ὑακίνθινος states, “hyacinth-colored, i.e. dark blue (dark red?) w. πύρινος Rv 9:17.”

[9:17]  ⁷ tn On this term BDAG 446 s.v. θειώδης states, “sulphurous Rv 9:17.”

[9:17]  ⁸ sn The colors of the riders’ breastplates parallel the three plagues of fire, smoke, and sulfur in v. 18.

[9:17]  ⁹ tn Here καί (kai) has not been translated because of differences between Greek and English style.

[9:17]  ¹⁰ tn Traditionally, “brimstone.”

[11:14]  ³ tn Grk “has passed.”
