    In Revelation 9:21, κλεμμάτων is a genitive plural noun in the clause about people not repenting out from several acts. The APB renders the list as “their murders nor out from their potions nor out from their sexual sin nor out from their thefts.”

In the Anselm Project Bible: In Revelation 9:21, the APB includes the term in a list rendered “their thefts.” This rendering confirms the clause's overall presentation rather than establishing a finer distinction.
