OET (OET-RV)

[ref]but each tree is recognised by the fruit it produces. You don’t pick figs thistles or pick grapes from thorn bushes.

6:44: Mat 12:33.

OET-LVFor/Because each tree is_being_known by its own fruit.
For/Because they_are_ not _gathering figs from thorns, nor are_they_picking grapes from a_thorn_bush.

SR-GNTἝκαστον γὰρ δένδρον ἐκ τοῦ ἰδίου καρποῦ γινώσκεται. Οὐ γὰρ ἐξ ἀκανθῶν συλλέγουσιν σῦκα, οὐδὲ ἐκ βάτου σταφυλὴν τρυγῶσιν.

Note: Automatic aligning of the OET-RV to the LV is done by some temporary software, hence the OET-RV alignments are incomplete (and may occasionally be wrong).

ULT For each tree is known by its own fruit. For they do not gather figs from a thornbush, nor do they gather grapes from a briar bush.

UST You can tell what a person is like inside by the things that they do. Then you know what to expect from them. You would not look for kindness or good advice from someone who does bad things. That would be like looking for figs on a thornbush or looking for grapes on a bramble vine.

FBV You recognize a tree by the fruit it produces. You don't pick figs from thorn bushes, or harvest grapes from brambles.

TCNTEach tree is known by its own fruit. People do not gather figs from thorns, nor do they pick grapes from a bramble bush.

T4TJust like you can tell if a tree is good or bad by looking at its fruit, you can tell which people are good and which are bad by looking at the way they conduct their lives. For example, because thornbushes cannot produce figs, no one can pick figs from thornbushes. And since bramble bushes cannot produce grapes, no one can pick grapes from bramble bushes.

LEB for each tree is known by its own fruit. For figs are not gathered from thorn plants, nor are grapes harvested from thorn bushes.

BBE For every tree is judged by its fruit. Men do not get figs from thorns, or grapes from blackberry plants.

TSNTyndale Study Notes:

6:17-49 The central theme of Jesus’ great sermon is that an authentic life of righteousness accompanies repentance and acceptance into God’s Kingdom.


UTNuW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / activepassive

ἕκαστον & δένδρον ἐκ τοῦ ἰδίου καρποῦ γινώσκεται

each & tree by its own fruit /is_being/_known

If it would be helpful in your language, you could express this with an active form, and you could state who does the action. Alternate translation: “people recognize a tree by the fruit that it bears”

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / metaphor

ἕκαστον & δένδρον ἐκ τοῦ ἰδίου καρποῦ γινώσκεται

each & tree by its own fruit /is_being/_known

This phrase is a metaphor. Alternate translation: “each person’s words and actions reveal his or her character”

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / parallelism

οὐ γὰρ ἐξ ἀκανθῶν συλλέγουσιν σῦκα, οὐδὲ ἐκ βάτου σταφυλὴν τρυγῶσιν

not for from thorns ˱they˲_/are/_gathering figs nor from /a/_thorn_bush grapes ˱they˲_/are/_picking

These two phrases mean the same thing. Jesus is using repetition for emphasis and to capture the interest of his listeners. You do not need to put both phrases in your translation if that might be confusing for your readers. Instead, you could combine them into a single general expression. Alternate translation: “people do not collect the kind of fruit that grows on a tree or a vine from a small, thorny bush”

Note 4 topic: translate-unknown

ἀκανθῶν

thorns

The word thornbush refers to a kind of plant that has sharp protective spines on its stem. If your readers would not know what a thornbush is, in your translation you could use the name of another plant that does not produce edible fruit.

Note 5 topic: translate-unknown

βάτου

/a/_thorn_bush

The term briar bush refers to a kind of plant that has thorny stems growing in dense clusters. If your readers would not know what a briar bush is, in your translation you could use the name of another plant that does not produce edible fruit.
