Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / extrainfo
εἶπεν
said
Here Matthew does not specify to whom Jesus said these words. It is possible that it was the woman, or more likely, the disciples. If possible, do not specify to whom Jesus said these words. Alternate translation: “spoke these words:”
Note 2 topic: grammar-connect-exceptions
οὐκ ἀπεστάλην εἰ μὴ εἰς τὰ πρόβατα τὰ ἀπολωλότα οἴκου Ἰσραήλ
not ˱I˲_/was/_sent_out except ¬not/lest to the sheep ¬which /having/_lost ˱of˲_/the/_house ˱of˲_Israel
If it would in appear your language that Jesus was making a statement here and then contradicting it, you could reword this to avoid using an exception clause. Alternate translation: “I was sent only to the lost sheep of the house of Israel”
Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / activepassive
οὐκ ἀπεστάλην
not ˱I˲_/was/_sent_out
If your language does not use this passive form, you could express the idea in active form or in another way that is natural in your language. If you need to say who did the action, it is clear from the context that it was God. Alternate translation: “God did not send me”
Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / possession
τὰ πρόβατα τὰ ἀπολωλότα οἴκου Ἰσραήλ
the sheep ¬which /having/_lost ˱of˲_/the/_house ˱of˲_Israel
Here, Jesus could be using the possessive form to describe: (1) all of the house of Israel as lost sheep. Alternate translation: “the lost sheep, who are the house of Israel” (2) some of the house of Israel as lost sheep. Alternate translation: “the lost sheep among the house of Israel”
Note 5 topic: figures-of-speech / metaphor
τὰ πρόβατα τὰ ἀπολωλότα οἴκου Ἰσραήλ
the sheep ¬which /having/_lost ˱of˲_/the/_house ˱of˲_Israel
Here Jesus speaks of his fellow Jewish people as if they were lost sheep. He means that they are not following God and need help. This is an important metaphor in the Bible, so you could preserve the figure of speech or use simile form. See how you translated this phrase in 10:6. Alternate translation: “the house of Israel, who are like lost sheep” or “the house of Israel, who are far away from God, like lost sheep”
Note 6 topic: figures-of-speech / metaphor
οἴκου Ἰσραήλ
˱of˲_/the/_house ˱of˲_Israel
Here Jesus refers to a people group or nation as if it were a house. If it would be helpful in your language, you could use a comparable phrase or state the meaning plainly. See how you translated this phrase in 10:6. Alternate translation: “of the nation of Israel” or “of the Israelites”
