The first woe has passed (Rev 9:12)

“The first woe

Has passed.

Look!

There are still

Two woes

To come.”

Ἡ Οὐαὶ ἡ μία ἀπῆλθεν· ἰδοὺ ἔρχεται ἔτι δύο Οὐαὶ μετὰ ταῦτα.

John said, “The first woe (Ἡ Οὐαὶ ἡ μία) has passed (ἀπῆλθεν).  Look (ἰδοὺ)!  There are still (μετὰ ταῦτα) two woes (ἔτι δύο Οὐαὶ) to come (ἔρχεται).”  John then commented that the first woe of the three great woes had passed, but there were still two more to come.  They still had two more angels with trumpets to go.  Do these woes scare you?
