OET (OET-RV) “You’re permitted to know the mysteries of God’s kingdom,” responded Yeshua, “but the others get parables so that when they look, they won’t see, and when they listen, they won’t understand.

OET-LVAnd he said:
It_has_been_given to_you_all to_know the mysteries of_the kingdom of_ the _god, but to_the rest in parables, in_order_that seeing they _may_ not _be_seeing, and hearing they _may_ not _be_understanding.

SR-GNT δὲ εἶπεν, “Ὑμῖν δέδοται γνῶναι τὰ μυστήρια τῆς Βασιλείας τοῦ ˚Θεοῦ, τοῖς δὲ λοιποῖς ἐν παραβολαῖς, ἵναβλέποντες μὴ βλέπωσιν, καὶ ἀκούοντες μὴ συνιῶσιν’.

TSNTyndale Study Notes:

8:10 the secrets of the Kingdom of God: What was hidden in the past about God’s reign was now revealed through Jesus’ words and actions.
• When they look . . . they won’t understand: This quote is from Isa 6:9 (Greek version), a passage repeatedly used in the New Testament to explain Israel’s rejection of the gospel (see also Matt 13:14-15; Mark 4:12; John 12:40; Acts 28:26-27). In its original context, the passage refers to God’s certain judgment of Israel at the hands of the Assyrians. Israel’s sin and rebelliousness had taken them beyond the point of no return, so God blinded them in preparation for judgment. Those who rejected Jesus’ message were blind to the truth.


UTNuW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / activepassive

ὑμῖν δέδοται γνῶναι

˱to˲_you_all ˱it˲_/has_been/_given /to/_know

If it would be helpful in your language, you could express this with an active form, and you could state who did the action. Alternate translation: “God has allowed you to understand”

τὰ μυστήρια τῆς Βασιλείας τοῦ Θεοῦ

the mysteries ˱of˲_the Kingdom ¬the ˱of˲_God

These are spiritual truths that people had not previously understood. Jesus is now revealing them. Alternate translation: “the secrets of the kingdom of God”

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / abstractnouns

τῆς Βασιλείας τοῦ Θεοῦ

˱of˲_the Kingdom ¬the ˱of˲_God

See how you decided to translate this phrase in 4:43. If it would be helpful in your language, you could express the idea behind the abstract noun kingdom with a verb such as “rule.” Alternate translation: “of how God will rule”

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / ellipsis

τοῖς δὲ λοιποῖς ἐν παραβολαῖς

˱to˲_the but rest in parables

Jesus is leaving out some of the words that a sentence would ordinarily need in order to be complete. Alternate translation: “but I speak in parables to the people who are not my disciples”

Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / quotesinquotes

ἵνα βλέποντες μὴ βλέπωσιν, καὶ ἀκούοντες μὴ συνιῶσιν

in_order_that seeing not ˱they˲_/may_be/_seeing and hearing not ˱they˲_/may_be/_understanding

Luke is quoting Jesus, and Jesus is quoting the prophet Isaiah. If it would be helpful in your language, you could translate this so that there is not a quotation within a quotation. For clarity, you could also indicate the source of the words that Jesus is quoting. Alternate translation: “so that as the prophet Isaiah said, though they see, they will not perceive, and though they hear, they will not understand”

βλέποντες μὴ βλέπωσιν

seeing not ˱they˲_/may_be/_seeing

Some languages may need to state the object of the verb. Alternate translation: “Though they see things, they will not understand them” or “Though they see things happen, they will not understand what they mean”

ἀκούοντες μὴ συνιῶσιν

hearing not ˱they˲_/may_be/_understanding

Some languages may need to state the object of the verb. Alternate translation: “though they hear instruction, they will not understand the truth”
