UTN uW Translation Notes:

διὰ τοῦτο

because_of this

The expression Because of this refers to the way that the current generation was effectively continuing the actions of its ancestors, who had killed the prophets. Alternate translation: “Because you are just as hostile to the prophets as your ancestors were”

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / personification

καὶ ἡ σοφία τοῦ Θεοῦ εἶπεν

also the wisdom ¬the ˱of˲_God said

Jesus speaks of God’s wisdom as if it were able to speak by itself. Alternate translation: “God in his wisdom also said” or “God also wisely said”

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit

ἀποστελῶ εἰς αὐτοὺς προφήτας καὶ ἀποστόλους, καὶ ἐξ αὐτῶν ἀποκτενοῦσιν καὶ διώξουσιν

˱I˲_/will_be/_sending_out to them prophets and ambassadors and of them ˱they˲_/will_be/_killing_off and ˱they˲_/will_be/_persecuting

Jesus is saying that God was not so foolish or naïve as to think that the Israelites would welcome the message of the prophets and apostles. God in his wisdom knew that they would oppose his messengers. But he sent them anyway, because their message was necessary and important. Alternate translation: “I am going to send prophets and apostles to them with my message, even though I know they will persecute and kill some of them”

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / hendiadys

ἀποκτενοῦσιν καὶ διώξουσιν

˱they˲_/will_be/_killing_off and ˱they˲_/will_be/_persecuting

Here, Jesus may be expressing a single idea by using two words connected with and. The word persecute may be telling why and how the people would kill the prophets. If it would be helpful in your language, you could express the meaning with a single phrase. Alternate translation: “persecute even to the point of killing”
