Exegesis

The verse opens with a rhetorical question introduced by tis {τίς | tís} ‘who?’, immediately strengthened by the double negative ou mē {οὐ μὴ | ou mē}, which in Greek marks strong denial that anyone could fail to respond appropriately.

In contextRevelation 15:4

Who will not fear You, Lord , and glorify Your name? For You alone are holy; for all the nations will come and worship before You, because Your righteous acts have been revealed.
