TSNTyndale Study Notes:

21:1-18 This “we” passage (see study notes on 16:10; 20:5-15) covers Paul’s journey from Miletus to Jerusalem at the close of the third missionary journey.


UTNuW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / rquestion

τί ποιεῖτε, κλαίοντες καὶ συνθρύπτοντές μου τὴν καρδίαν?

what ˱you_all˲_/are/_doing weeping and breaking ˱of˲_me the heart

Paul is using the question form to insist that the believers in Caesarea do not need to weep over what will happen to him if he goes to Jerusalem. If you would not use the question form for this purpose in your language, you could translate this as a statement or an exclamation. Alternate translation: “Please do not weep like that, breaking my heart”

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / metaphor

συνθρύπτοντές μου τὴν καρδίαν

breaking ˱of˲_me the heart

Paul is speaking as if the believers in Caesarea were literally breaking his heart. He means that they are making him very sad. If it would be clearer in your language, you could state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: “making me so sad”

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / metonymy

συνθρύπτοντές μου τὴν καρδίαν

breaking ˱of˲_me the heart

In this context, the heart represents the emotions. If it would be helpful in your language, you could use an equivalent expression or express the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: “making me so sad”

Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / activepassive

οὐ μόνον δεθῆναι

not only /to_be/_bound

If your language does not use this passive form, you could express the idea in active form or in another way that is natural in your language. Alternate translation: “not only for them to bind me”

Note 5 topic: figures-of-speech / metonymy

ὑπὲρ τοῦ ὀνόματος τοῦ Κυρίου Ἰησοῦ

for the name ˱of˲_the Lord Jesus

This could mean: (1) that the name of Jesus represents his person. Alternate translation: “out of loyalty to the Lord Jesus” (2) that the name of Jesus represents his cause in the world. Alternate translation: “for the cause of the Lord Jesus”
