UTN uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: grammar-connect-words-phrases

δὲ

and

Here, the word But introduces the next thing that happened. If it would be helpful in your language, you could use a word or phrase that introduces the next event, or you could leave But untranslated. Alternate translation: “Then,”

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / imperative

φράσον

interpret

This is an imperative, but it should be translated as a polite request rather than as a command. It may be helpful to add an expression such as “please” to make this clear. Alternate translation: “I ask that you explain”

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / yousingular

φράσον

interpret

Here, the command is singular because the Peter is speaking to Jesus.

Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit

τὴν παραβολήν

the parable

Here Peter could be referring to: (1) the parable about blind people guiding other blind people (see 15:14). Alternate translation: “the parable about the blind guides” (2) the parable about things that go into and out of a person (see 15:11). Alternate translation: “the parable about what goes into a person”

Note 5 topic: figures-of-speech / exclusive

ἡμῖν

˱to˲_us

By us, Peter means himself and the other disciples but not Jesus, so use the exclusive form of that word in your translation if your language marks that distinction.
