UTN uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / rpronouns

αὐτὸς Δαυεὶδ

himself (Some words not found in SR-GNT: αὐτὸς Δαυὶδ εἶπεν ἐν τῷ Πνεύματι τῷ ἁγίῳ εἶπεν ὁ Κύριος τῷ Κυρίῳ μου κάθου ἐκ δεξιῶν μου ἕως ἂν θῶ τοὺς ἐχθρούς σου ὑποκάτω τῶν ποδῶν σου)

Jesus uses the word himself here to emphasize that it was David, the very person whom the scribes call the father of the Christ, who wrote the words in the quotation that follows. Use a natural way in your language to indicate this emphasis. Alternate translation: “None other than David” or “David, the very person whom they call the father of the Christ”

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit

ἐν τῷ Πνεύματι τῷ ἁγίῳ

by the Spirit ¬the holy

Here, the phrase in the Holy Spirit indicates that David wrote the words that follow as the Holy Spirit inspired him. In other words, the Holy Spirit prompted David to write this. If it would be helpful in your language, you could make that idea more explicit. Alternate translation: “by the inspiration of the Spirit” or “prompted by the Spirit”

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / quotesinquotes

εἶπεν & εἶπεν ὁ Κύριος τῷ Κυρίῳ μου, κάθου ἐκ δεξιῶν μου, ἕως ἂν θῶ τοὺς ἐχθρούς σου ὑποκάτω τῶν ποδῶν σου

said & said the Lord ˱to˲_the Lord ˱of˲_me /be/_sitting on /the/_right ˱of˲_me until ¬wishfully ˱I˲_/may/_put the enemies ˱of˲_you beneath ˱of˲_the feet ˱of˲_you

If it would be clearer in your language, you could translate this so that there is not a quotation within a quotation. Alternate translation: “said that the Lord told his Lord to sit at his right hand until he puts his enemies under his feet”

Note 4 topic: writing-quotations

εἶπεν

said

Here Jesus introduces a quotation from an important text, in this case, the Old Testament book of Psalms (see Psalm 110:1). This Psalm was written by David. If it would be helpful in your language, you could use a comparable phrase that indicates that Jesus is quoting from an important text. Alternate translation: “said in the book of Psalms” or “wrote in Scriptures”

Note 5 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit

εἶπεν ὁ Κύριος τῷ Κυρίῳ μου

said said the Lord ˱to˲_the Lord ˱of˲_me

Here, the term Lord does not refer to the same person in both instances. The first instance refers to God. The second instance refers to a person whom David respectfully calls “lord.” The ULT and UST capitalize this second instance of the word because it refers to the Messiah. If it would be helpful in your language, you could make those ideas more explicit. Alternate translation: “God, the Lord, said to my Lord” or “God said to my Lord”

Note 6 topic: translate-symaction

κάθου ἐκ δεξιῶν μου

/be/_sitting on /the/_right ˱of˲_me

When someone sits at God’s right hand, it symbolizes that person’s honor, authority, and ability to rule. If it would be helpful in your language, you could make this idea more explicit. Alternate translation: “Sit to rule at my right hand” or “Take the place of honor and authority at my right hand”

Note 7 topic: figures-of-speech / metonymy

ἐκ δεξιῶν μου

on /the/_right ˱of˲_me

Here, the phrase at my right hand refers to the place next to a person’s right hand, which would be the “right side.” In the author’s culture, this side was associated with honor or authority. If it would be helpful in your language, you could refer to the “right side.” Make sure that your readers understand that this side indicates that the Lord has honor and authority when he sits there. Alternate translation: “at my right side” or “at the honorable place next to me”

Note 8 topic: translate-symaction

ἕως ἂν θῶ τοὺς ἐχθρούς σου ὑποκάτω τῶν ποδῶν σου

until ¬wishfully ˱I˲_/may/_put the enemies ˱of˲_you beneath ˱of˲_the feet ˱of˲_you

In the author’s culture, to put people under a person’s feet indicates that those people have been conquered and are powerless and shamed. So, this means that God will conquer and shame all the enemies of the Lord. If it would be helpful in your language, you could explain what this action means. Alternate translation: “until I make your enemies kneel before you” or “until I conquer and shame your enemies”

Note 9 topic: translate-textvariants

ὑποκάτω τῶν ποδῶν σου

beneath ˱of˲_the feet ˱of˲_you

Many ancient manuscripts read under your feet. The ULT follows that reading. Other ancient manuscripts read “as a footstool of your feet.” If a translation of the Bible exists in your region, you may wish to use the reading that it uses. If a translation of the Bible does not exist in your region, you may wish to use the reading of the ULT.
