Exegesis
The final clause kai hoi douloi autou latreusousin autō {καὶ οἱ δοῦλοι αὐτοῦ λατρεύσουσιν αὐτῷ | kaí hoi doû-loi au-toû la-treú-sou-sin au-tô} introduces a new subject “His servants,” with the singular pronoun autou referring collectively to God and the Lamb, and the future verb latreusousin expressing ongoing, future-oriented cultic service or worship directed to Him. The repeated kai at each juncture strings the clauses together, portraying a unified eschatological scene: curse removed, divine throne established, and unending service rendered. In translation, the first clause is rendered with an impersonal “there will no longer be any curse” / “Nothing accursed will exist any longer” to reflect Greek existential usage, while the remaining clauses are kept closely coordinated to mirror the Greek flow and to preserve the emphasis on the single shared throne and unified worship.
In context — Revelation 22:3
And there will no longer be any curse , and the throne of God and of the Lamb will be in it, and His servants will serve Him.
