Exegesis
The verb ekrinas {ἔκρινας | É-kri-nas} is aorist, portraying God’s judgments as decisive and completed, while the object tauta {ταῦτα | taû-ta} is broad enough to encompass the specific bowl judgments just described. In translation, the fronted “Righteous” is retained to preserve the marked emphasis, the participial titles are rendered as relative clauses (“the One who is and who was”) to sound natural in English, and the causal hoti-clause is expressed with “because” followed by a perfect-like English (“have judged”) to reflect the completed yet climactic force of the aorist within the narrative.
In context — Revelation 16:5
And I heard the angel of the waters say, “Righteous are You , the One who is and who was, the Holy One, because You have judged these things.”
