Exegesis
The conjunction hina {ἵνα | hína} signals a purpose clause, with dosin {δῶσιν | dô-sin} “they may give” as the aorist subjunctive; although the literal verb suggests third-party action, the translation employs “receive” to accurately reflect that recipients obtain the mark.
In context — Revelation 13:16
And he causes all, the small and the great, and the rich and the poor, and the free and the slaves , so that they receive a mark on their right hand or on their forehead.
