UTN uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: writing-pronouns

ἤγαγεν αὐτὸν

˱he˲_led him

He here refers to Andrew and him refers to Simon. If it would be helpful in your language, you could state this explicitly. Alternate translation: “Andrew brought Simon”

Note 2 topic: writing-quotations

ἐμβλέψας αὐτῷ, ὁ Ἰησοῦς εἶπεν

/having/_focused_in ˱on˲_him ¬the Jesus said

Consider natural ways of introducing direct quotations in your language. Alternate translation: “Jesus looked at him, and he said”

υἱὸς Ἰωάννου

son ˱of˲_John

This is neither John the Baptist nor John the apostle.

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / activepassive

σὺ κληθήσῃ Κηφᾶς

you you /will_be_being/_called Cephas

If your language does not use the passive form in this way, you could express the idea in active form or in another way that is natural in your language. Alternate translation: “People will call you Cephas”

Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit

Κηφᾶς

Cephas

Cephas is a word in the Aramaic language that means “rock.” Here, Jesus uses the word as a name for Simon. If it would be helpful to your readers, you could state this explicitly. Alternate translation: “Cephas, which means ‘rock’ in Aramaic”

Note 5 topic: figures-of-speech / activepassive

ὃ ἑρμηνεύεται, Πέτρος

which /is_being/_translated /the/_Stone|Peter

Note 6 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit

ὃ ἑρμηνεύεται, Πέτρος

which /is_being/_translated /the/_Stone|Peter

John assumes that his readers will know that he is saying what the name Cephas means when translated from the Aramaic language into Greek. If it would be helpful to your readers, you could express the meaning explicitly. Alternate translation: “which is ‘Peter’ in Greek” or “which is the Aramaic word for Peter”
