Exegesis
The infinitive dounai {δοῦναι | doûnai} “to give” is complementary, expressing the intended result or purpose of repentance, governing the dative autō {αὐτῷ | autō̂} “to Him” and the object doxan {δόξαν | dóxan} “glory.” English word order rearranges these elements slightly—using “by great heat” for the appositional kauma mega and an explicit relative clause for tou echontos—to make the causal and result relationships clear while preserving the progression from judgment, to hardened response, to the withheld glory due to God.
In context — Revelation 16:9
And the people were scorched by great heat, and they blasphemed the name of God , Who holds authority over these plagues; and they did not repent to give Him glory.
