The word "bowl" refers to what is in it. See how you translated this in [Revelation 16:2](../16/02.md). Alternate translation: "poured out the wine from his bowl" or "poured out God's wrath from his bowl" (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/jit/figs-metonymy]])

# the throne of the beast

This is where the beast reigns from. It may refer to the capital city of his kingdom. (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/jit/figs-metonymy]])

Here "darkness" is spoken of as if it were something like a blanket. Alternate translation: "it became dark in all his kingdom" or "all of his kingdom became dark" (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/jit/figs-metaphor]])

# They chewed

The people in the beast's kingdom chewed.
