TSNTyndale Study Notes:

UTNuW Translation Notes:

ζητεῖτε τὴν βασιλείαν αὐτοῦ

/be/_seeking the kingdom ˱of˲_him

As in 12:29, the word seek has a specific meaning here. Alternate translation: “concentrate on God’s kingdom”

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / activepassive

ταῦτα προστεθήσεται ὑμῖν

these_‹things› /will_be_being/_added ˱to˲_you_all

If it would be helpful in your language, you could express this with an active form, and you could state who will do the action. Alternate translation: “God will also give you these things”

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit

ταῦτα προστεθήσεται ὑμῖν

these_‹things› /will_be_being/_added ˱to˲_you_all

In context, the expression these things refers to food and clothing. If it would be helpful to your readers, you could state that explicitly. Alternate translation: “God will also give you the food and clothing that you need”
