UTN uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit

ἀπ’ ἐμαυτοῦ

of myself

Here, from is used to indicate the source of Jesus’ teaching and ability to do miracles. His teaching and miracles could only have authority if they came from God. If it would be helpful to your readers, you could state this explicitly. Alternate translation: “on my own authority”

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / ellipsis

καθὼς ἀκούω, κρίνω

as ˱I˲_/am/_hearing ˱I˲_/am/_judging

Jesus is leaving out some of the words that a sentence would need in many languages to be complete. If it would be helpful in your language, you could supply these words from the context. Alternate translation: “Just as I hear from the Father, I judge”

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / abstractnouns

ἡ κρίσις ἡ ἐμὴ δικαία ἐστίν

¬the judgment ¬the my righteous is

If your language does not use abstract nouns for the ideas of judgment and righteous, you could express the same ideas in other ways. Alternate translation: “I judge rightly” or “I judge justly”

Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit

τοῦ πέμψαντός με

˱of˲_the_‹one› /having/_sent me

Here, the one having sent me refers to God. See how you translated this phrase in 4:34.
