UTN uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / ellipsis

ὡσαύτως καὶ τὸ ποτήριον

likewise also the cup

Here Paul omits some words that may be needed in your language to complete the thought. Paul omits these words because he stated them (“he took”) in 11:23, and the Corinthians would have understood them from that verse. If your language does need these words, you could supply them here. Alternate translation: “in the same way also he took the cup”

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / metonymy

(Occurrence -1) τὸ ποτήριον

(Some words not found in SR-GNT: ὡσαύτως καὶ τὸ ποτήριον μετὰ τὸ δειπνῆσαι λέγων τοῦτο τὸ ποτήριον ἡ καινὴ διαθήκη ἐστὶν ἐν τῷ ἐμῷ αἵματι τοῦτο ποιεῖτε ὁσάκις ἐὰν πίνητε εἰς τὴν ἐμὴν ἀνάμνησιν)

Here the Corinthians would have understood cup to refer to the drink inside the cup, which in Paul’s culture would have been wine. If it would be helpful in your language, you could express cup by more explicitly referring to what would be in the cup. Alternate translation: “the drink … drink” or “the wine … wine”

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / quotations

λέγων, τοῦτο τὸ ποτήριον ἡ καινὴ διαθήκη ἐστὶν ἐν τῷ ἐμῷ αἵματι; τοῦτο ποιεῖτε, ὁσάκις ἐὰν πίνητε, εἰς τὴν ἐμὴν ἀνάμνησιν.

saying this ¬the cup the new covenant is in ¬the my blood this /be/_doing as_often_as ¬if ˱you_all˲_/may_be/_drinking_‹it› in ¬the my remembrance

If you do not use this form in your language, you could translate these statements as indirect quotes instead of as direct quotes. Alternate translation: “saying that this cup was the new covenant in his blood, and that you should do this, as often as you drink it, in remembrance of him”

Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / metaphor

τοῦτο τὸ ποτήριον ἡ καινὴ διαθήκη ἐστὶν ἐν τῷ ἐμῷ αἵματι

this ¬the cup the new covenant is in ¬the my blood

Here Paul refers to how Jesus identified the cup as the new covenant in my blood. This figure of speech has been interpreted in a number of ways. The wine in the cup could somehow become Jesus’ blood, or Jesus’ blood could be present in some way when people drink from the cup, or the wine in the cup could represent or memorialize Jesus’ blood. Because of the variety of interpretations and the significance of this metaphor, you should preserve the metaphor if there is any way to do so. If you must express the metaphor in a different way, use a form that could fit with as many of the listed interpretations as possible. Alternate translation: “This cup represents the new covenant in my blood”

Note 5 topic: figures-of-speech / metaphor

ἐν τῷ ἐμῷ αἵματι

in ¬the my blood

Here, in my blood is a spatial metaphor that could refer to: (1) how the new covenant has been inaugurated or initiated by Jesus’ blood. Alternate translation: “initiated by my blood” (2) how the cup can be identified with the new covenant. Alternate translation: “because of my blood” or “because it contains my blood”

Note 6 topic: writing-pronouns

τοῦτο ποιεῖτε

this this /be/_doing

Here, this could refer to: (1) doing what Jesus has done, including everything he did with the cup. Alternate translation: “Perform this ceremony” or “Do these things” (2) just drinking from the cup. Alternate translation: “Drink from the cup”

Note 7 topic: writing-pronouns

ὁσάκις ἐὰν πίνητε

as_often_as ¬if ˱you_all˲_/may_be/_drinking_‹it›

Here, it refers to the cup and thus also the drink inside the cup. This does not mean that believers are supposed to Do this every time they drink from any cup. Rather, whenever they drink from the cup in the context of the remembrance of Jesus, they should Do this. If it would be helpful in your language, you could translate as often as you drink it to identity more clearly what it means. Alternate translation: “as often as you drink from the cup in this ceremony” or “as often as you drink from the cup”

Note 8 topic: figures-of-speech / abstractnouns

εἰς τὴν ἐμὴν ἀνάμνησιν

in ¬the my remembrance

If your language does not use an abstract noun for the idea behind remembrance, you can express the idea by using a verb such as “remember.” Alternate translation: “to remember me”

Note 9 topic: figures-of-speech / metonymy

ἐμὴν

When Jesus here refers to me, he is referring more specifically to what he has done and will do for his followers, particularly how he is about to offer himself for them. If it would be helpful in your language, you could express me and think that Jesus is just speaking about personal memory by clarifying that me refers to particular actions done by me. Alternate translation: “of what I am doing for you” or “of how I am going to die for you”
