1:32-33 These verses echo God’s covenant with David (2 Sam 7:11-16), the foundational promise of the coming Messiah (see also Isa 9:6-7; 11:1-5; Jer 23:5-6; 33:15-16; Ezek 37:24-25).
Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / parallelism
βασιλεύσει & εἰς τοὺς αἰῶνας; καὶ τῆς βασιλείας αὐτοῦ, οὐκ ἔσται τέλος
˱he˲_/will_be/_reigning & to the ages and ˱of˲_the kingdom ˱of˲_him not will_be /an/_end
These two phrases mean similar things. Gabriel uses them together to emphasize how certain it is that Jesus will always rule. Because Gabriel is making a proclamation, he is speaking in a form much like poetry. Hebrew poetry was based on this kind of repetition, and it would be good to show this to your readers by including both phrases in your translation rather than combining them. However, if the repetition might be confusing, you could connect the phrases with a word other than and, in order to show that the second phrase is repeating the first one, not saying something additional. Alternate translation: “he will rule … forever, yes, his kingship will always continue”
Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / metaphor
τὸν οἶκον Ἰακὼβ
the house ˱of˲_Jacob
In this expression, the word house describes all the people descended from a particular person, in this case Jacob, who was also known as Israel. Alternate translation: “the people descended from Jacob”
Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / idiom
εἰς τοὺς αἰῶνας
to the ages
This is an idiom. The term ages means long periods of time. Alternate translation: “forever”
Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / litotes
τῆς βασιλείας αὐτοῦ, οὐκ ἔσται τέλος
˱of˲_the kingdom ˱of˲_him not will_be /an/_end
This is a figure of speech that expresses a strong positive meaning by using a negative word together with a word that is the opposite of the intended meaning. Alternate translation: “his kingship will always continue”
Note 5 topic: figures-of-speech / abstractnouns
τῆς βασιλείας αὐτοῦ, οὐκ ἔσται τέλος
˱of˲_the kingdom ˱of˲_him not will_be /an/_end
The abstract noun kingship refers to the action of a king reigning. If it would be helpful in your language, you could express the idea behind this word with a verb such as “reign.” Alternate translation: “he will always reign”
