22:31 Regarding Satan, see 4:2; 10:18; 11:15. Satan is the accuser of God’s people (see Job 1:7; 2:2); he would test Simon Peter and the rest of the apostles.
• asked to sift: Wheat was sifted through a sieve to separate the grain from the chaff. It is an image of extreme testing (see Isa 30:28; Amos 9:9).
• The NLT’s each of you is precise, because the Greek you is plural, referring to all the disciples. Jesus foresaw Peter’s denial and the trials of the other disciples.
Σίμων, Σίμων
Simon Simon
Jesus says the name of this disciple twice to show him that what he is about to say to him is very important. Your language may have a way of addressing someone to show this same thing. Alternate translation: “Now Simon”
Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / metaphor
ἰδοὺ
behold
Jesus uses the term behold to get Simon to focus his attention on what he is about to say. Alternate translation: “listen”
ἐξῃτήσατο
requested
Your language may require you to state the object of the verb. Alternate translation: “has asked God for permission”
Note 2 topic: translate-unknown
ὑμᾶς τοῦ σινιάσαι ὡς τὸν σῖτον
you_all ¬which /to/_sift as ¬the wheat
To sift wheat means to put it in a sieve, which is a container with a mesh bottom, and shake it back and forth so that the grain stays in the sieve and the husk or chaff falls out. If your readers would not be familiar with wheat, you could use the name of a grain that they would recognize, or use a general expression. Alternate translation: “to shake you as if he were separating grain from its husks in a sieve”
Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / simile
ἐξῃτήσατο ὑμᾶς τοῦ σινιάσαι ὡς τὸν σῖτον
requested you_all ¬which /to/_sift as ¬the wheat
Jesus is using this comparison to say that Satan wants to put the disciples through difficult experiences in order to show that many of them are not unconditionally loyal to Jesus. You could use this same comparison in your translation, or you could explain its meaning. Alternate translation: “to shake you as if he were separating grain from its husks in a sieve” or “to test you to show that many of you will not stay loyal to me when threatened”
Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit
ἐξῃτήσατο ὑμᾶς τοῦ σινιάσαι ὡς τὸν σῖτον
requested you_all ¬which /to/_sift as ¬the wheat
The implication is that God has given Satan permission to do this, and that is why Jesus is giving this warning. If it would be helpful to your readers, you could state that explicitly. Alternate translation: “to test you to show that many of you are not unconditionally loyal to me, and God has given him permission to do that”
Note 5 topic: figures-of-speech / you
ὑμᾶς
you_all
Here, you is plural. Jesus is referring to all of the apostles.
