19:6 Since God made marriage a union, humans do not have the right to break that union. Jesus affirmed the indissolubility of marriage.
Note 1 topic: grammar-connect-logic-result
ὥστε
so_that
Here, the phrase So then introduces a conclusion or inference based on the words Jesus has just quoted. If it would be helpful in your language, you could use a different word or phrase that introduces a conclusion or inference. Alternate translation: “Because of that” or “As you can see”
Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / metaphor
οὐκέτι εἰσὶν δύο, ἀλλὰ σὰρξ μία
no_longer ˱they˲_are two but flesh one
Here Jesus repeats in different form the words from the figure of speech at the end of the previous verse (see 19:5). He means that a husband and wife are so closely joined that it is as if they had one flesh or one body between them. Express the idea as you did in 19:5. Alternate translation: “it is as if they are no longer two, but they are like one flesh” or “they are no longer two separate people, but are as closely united as possible”
Note 3 topic: grammar-connect-logic-result
οὖν
therefore
Here, the word Therefore introduces a conclusion or inference based on what Jesus has said about marriage. If it would be helpful in your language, you could use a different word or phrase that introduces a conclusion or inference. Alternate translation: “Because of that” or “So then”
Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / imperative3p
ἄνθρωπος μὴ χωριζέτω
man not /let_be/_separating
If your language does not use the third-person imperative in this way, you could state this in another way that is natural in your language. Alternate translation: “man should not separate”
Note 5 topic: figures-of-speech / gendernotations
ἄνθρωπος
man
Although the term man is masculine, Jesus is using the word in a generic sense that includes both men and women. If it would be helpful in your language, you could use a phrase that makes this clear. Alternate translation: “a person” or “humans”
