## Translation Suggestions: ##
|
|
|
|
* These terms should probably be translated differently since they occur in different contexts.
|
|
* Some languages cannot use "lake" in the phrase "lake of fire" because it refers to water.
|
|
* The term "hell" could be translated as "place of suffering" or "final place of darkness and pain."
|
|
* The term "lake of fire" could also be translated as, "sea of fire" or "huge fire (of suffering)" or "field of fire."
