AMPLIFIED 2015 | Revelation 22:12 ¶ "Behold, I (Jesus) am coming quickly, and My reward is with Me, to give to each one according to the merit of his deeds (earthly works, faithfulness). [Is 40:10; Jer 17:10; Matt 16:27; 2 Cor 5:10] |
Bible Question:
Surely in a literal translation Rev 22:12 should end '... according to his works (ergon)' The NASB is interpreting here, not translating. It doesn't seem to like what this verse is saying. Okay I admit I'm a Catholic but I didn't buy my NASB for this kind of thing. Comments from our erudite Greek scholars? |
Bible Answer: Dalcent, I'm no erudite Greek scholar, but my NASB 95 on Rev. 22:12 reads: "Behold, I am coming quickly, and My reward is with Me, to render to every man according to what he has done." According to what he has done is literally, "as his work is". I hope this helps. BradK |
