Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / doublet
ἀμὴν, ἀμὴν, λέγω ὑμῖν
truly truly ˱I˲_/am/_saying ˱to˲_you_all
Jesus uses this phrase to emphasize the truth of the statement that follows. See how you translated this phrase in 1:51.
Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / you
λέγω ὑμῖν
˱I˲_/am/_saying ˱to˲_you_all
Since Jesus is speaking to a group of Jewish leaders, you is plural here and through 5:47. If your language does not have a different form for plural you, you can use another way to express it. Alternate translation: “I say to you Jews” or “I say to you all”
Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / metaphor
ὁ τὸν λόγον μου ἀκούων
the_‹one› the word ˱of˲_me hearing
Here, hearing means listening to something with the intent to heed it and respond appropriately. It does not mean simply to hear what someone says. If this might confuse your readers, you could express the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: “the one heeding my word”
Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / metonymy
τὸν λόγον μου
the word ˱of˲_me
Here, word refers to the message or teachings of Jesus. If it would be helpful in your language, you could express the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: “my message”
Note 5 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit
τῷ πέμψαντί με
˱in˲_the_‹one› /having/_sent me
Here, the one who sent me refers to God. See how you translated this phrase in 4:34.
Note 6 topic: figures-of-speech / metaphor
εἰς κρίσιν οὐκ ἔρχεται
into judgment not /is/_coming
Jesus speaks of judgment as if it were a place a person could enter. If this might confuse your readers, you could express the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: “will not be judged”
μεταβέβηκεν ἐκ τοῦ θανάτου εἰς τὴν ζωήν
/has/_departed out_of ¬the death into ¬the life
Here, passed means to move from one state to another. Alternate translation: “he has moved from death to life”
5:24 Jesus is the giver of life as well as the judge (see 5:21-22), but he never works independently of the Father.
OET (OET-LV) Truly, truly, I_am_saying to_you_all that the one hearing the message of_me, and believing in_the one having_sent me, is_having eternal life, and is_ not _coming into judgment, but has_departed out_of the death into the life.
OET (OET-RV) “I assure you that anyone who hears my message and believes that I was sent by God, will live forever and will not be condemned, but has moved from death into life.
