# will greatly desire to die
"will want very much to die" or "will wish that they could die"
# death will flee from them
John speaks of death as if it were a person or animal that could run away. Alternate translation: "they will not be able to die" or "they will not die" (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/jit/figs-personification]])
