AT: "poured out the wine from his bowl" or "poured out God's wrath from his bowl" (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-metonymy]]) # painful sores "painful wounds." These could be infections from diseases or injuries that have not healed. # mark of the beast This was an identifying mark that indicated that the person who received it worshiped the beast.
