Exegesis
The accusative object tò kríma {τὸ κρίμα | tò kríma} “the judgment” takes the genitive humôn {ὑμῶν | humôn} indicating the case brought on behalf of the addressees, and the prepositional phrase ex autês {ἐξ αὐτῆς | ex autês} conveys the adversarial source from Babylon. In translation, this relational nuance is captured by rendering ex autês as “for you against her,” thus preserving the sense of vindication alongside the cause of joy.
Root and etymology
krinokappa–rho–iota–nu–omega
