Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / quotesinquotes
βλέπετε μὴ πλανηθῆτε; πολλοὶ γὰρ ἐλεύσονται ἐπὶ τῷ ὀνόματί μου λέγοντες, ἐγώ εἰμι, καί, ὁ καιρὸς ἤγγικεν
/be/_watching_out lest ˱you_all˲_/may_be/_strayed many for /will_be/_coming in the name ˱of˲_me saying I am_‹he› and the time /has/_neared
If the direct quotation inside a direct quotation would be confusing in your language, you could translate the second direct quotation as an indirect quotation. Alternate translation: “Be careful that you are not led astray. For many will come in my name, saying that they are the Messiah. They will also say that the time has come near.”
Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / activepassive
μὴ πλανηθῆτε
lest ˱you_all˲_/may_be/_strayed
If it would be helpful in your language, you could express this with an active form. Alternate translation: “no one leads you astray”
Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / metonymy
ἐπὶ τῷ ὀνόματί μου
in the name ˱of˲_me
Here Jesus uses the word name to mean identity. The people he is talking about will likely not say that their name is Jesus, but they will claim to be the Messiah. Alternate translation: “claiming to be me”
Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit
ἐγώ εἰμι
I am_‹he›
The implication is that he means the Messiah. Alternate translation: “I am the Messiah”
Note 5 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit
ὁ καιρὸς ἤγγικεν
he the time /has/_neared
This implicitly means the time when God will establish his kingdom, which these false Messiahs would understand to mean defeating their enemies. Alternate translation: “God is about to establish his kingdom” or “God is about to defeat all of our enemies”
Note 6 topic: figures-of-speech / metaphor
μὴ πορευθῆτε ὀπίσω αὐτῶν
lest not ˱you_all˲_/may_be/_gone after them
Here the expression go after seems to have a figurative sense like that of the term follow, found in 5:27 and several other places in the book, meaning to become someone’s disciple. Alternate translation: “Do not become their disciples”
