Hi. What is the translation of stench, please ? Thank you.

** he could smell the smell , the stench, like he had a presence . ** it smelt bad . but he wasn’t smelling the real stinky smell of the dead corpse . this judgement is gonna happen very very soon . one of the other dreams he ‘s received , he prayed to God, he bent his knees and he asked him for his counsel, for his response to this servant of God who goes by the name of efrain . he asked Him : Lord, if these dreams are true, please show me . reveal to me if they are confirmations of your judgements, of the impending judgements that this world will face really soon , in the form of an asteroid that’s gonna hit the earth & millions of humans are gonna die .

** podía oler el olor, el hedor, como si tuviera una presencia. ** olía feo . pero no olía el verdadero olor apestoso del cadáver . este juicio va a suceder muy pronto . uno de los otros sueños que recibió, oró a Dios, dobló las rodillas y le pidió su consejo, su respuesta a este siervo de Dios que se llama efraín . le preguntó : Señor, si estos sueños son verdaderos, por favor muéstrame . revélame si son confirmaciones de tus juicios, de los juicios inminentes que este mundo enfrentará muy pronto, en la forma de un asteroide que va a golpear la tierra y millones de humanos van a morir .

he could smell the stench, the stench, like he had a presence.
Podía percibir la pestilencia, la pestilencia, como si manifestase una presencia


Explanation:
Pues como en español se usa de manera diferente hedor, y poner oler en la misma frase se leería redundante.
