UTN uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / doublenegatives

οὐκέτι & ἐτόλμων ἐπερωτᾶν αὐτὸν οὐδέν

no_longer & ˱they˲_/were/_daring /to_be/_asking him nothing

Here Luke uses a double negative in Greek for emphasis, saying no longer and “nothing.” The second negative does not cancel the first to create a positive meaning, “they still dared to ask him something.” If for emphasis your language uses double negatives that do not cancel one another, it would be appropriate to use that construction here.

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit

οὐκέτι & ἐτόλμων ἐπερωτᾶν αὐτὸν οὐδέν

no_longer & ˱they˲_/were/_daring /to_be/_asking him nothing

The implication in context is that Jesus’ enemies were afraid that if they continued to ask him difficult questions, his wise answers would continue to show how much more he understood than they did. If it would be helpful to your readers, you could state that explicitly. Alternate translation: “they were afraid to ask him any more difficult questions, because they realized he would give more wise answers that would show how much more he understood than they did”

Note 3 topic: writing-pronouns

οὐκέτι & ἐτόλμων

no_longer & ˱they˲_/were/_daring

It is unclear whether they refers to the scribes, the Sadducees, or everyone who had been trying to trap Jesus with difficult questions. It may be best to translate this with a general statement. Alternate translation: “Jesus’ enemies no longer dared”
