Exegesis
The verse begins with kai {Καὶ | kaí} linking this action to the preceding bowl judgments.
The inceptive aorist egeneto {ἐγένετο | e-gé-ne-to} marks a new event, followed by the nominative predicate helkos kakon kai poneron {ἕλκος κακὸν καὶ πονηρὸν | hél-kos ka-kòn kai po-nē-ròn}, where the adjectives intensify the affliction.
