TSNTyndale Study Notes:

20:1-16 This parable is similar to the parable of the Lost Son (Luke 15:11-32). In both, God’s grace is shown to two parties while one grumbles about unjust treatment.


UTNuW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / quotesinquotes

λέγοντες, οὗτοι οἱ ἔσχατοι μίαν ὥραν ἐποίησαν, καὶ ἴσους ἡμῖν αὐτοὺς ἐποίησας, τοῖς βαστάσασι τὸ βάρος τῆς ἡμέρας καὶ τὸν καύσωνα

saying these ¬the last_‹ones› one hour worked and equal ˱to˲_us them ˱you˲_made ˱to˲_the_‹ones› (Some words not found in SR-GNT: λέγοντες οὗτοι οἱ ἔσχατοι μίαν ὥραν ἐποίησαν καὶ ἴσους ἡμῖν αὐτοὺς ἐποίησας τοῖς βαστάσασιν τὸ βάρος τῆς ἡμέρας καὶ τὸν καύσωνα)

If it would be clearer in your language, you could translate this so that there is not a quotation within a quotation. Alternate translation: “saying that the last ones had done one hour, but the master of the house made them equal to themselves, the ones having borne the burden of the day and the scorching heat.”

Note 2 topic: writing-quotations

λέγοντες

saying

Consider natural ways of introducing direct quotations in your language. Alternate translation: “and they said”

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit

οὗτοι οἱ ἔσχατοι

these ¬the last_‹ones›

Here the workers are referring to the other workers who were hired last. If it would be helpful in your language, you could make that idea more explicit. Alternate translation: “These ones who were hired last”

Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / yousingular

ἐποίησας

˱you˲_made

Because the workers are speaking to the master of the house, the word you is singular.

Note 5 topic: figures-of-speech / exclusive

ἡμῖν

˱to˲_us

By us, the workers mean themselves who were hired first but not any of the other workers, so use the exclusive form of that word in your translation if your language marks that distinction.

Note 6 topic: figures-of-speech / metaphor

τοῖς βαστάσασι τὸ βάρος τῆς ἡμέρας καὶ τὸν καύσωνα

˱to˲_the_‹ones› (Some words not found in SR-GNT: λέγοντες οὗτοι οἱ ἔσχατοι μίαν ὥραν ἐποίησαν καὶ ἴσους ἡμῖν αὐτοὺς ἐποίησας τοῖς βαστάσασιν τὸ βάρος τῆς ἡμέρας καὶ τὸν καύσωνα)

Here, the workers are speaking of their hard work as if it were burden that they had borne. They also speak as if the scorching heat were also an object that they had borne. They mean that they had to work hard and experience the hot sun during the middle of the day. If it would be clearer in your language, you could state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: “ones having worked hard the whole day and having experienced the scorching heat”

Note 7 topic: figures-of-speech / possession

τὸ βάρος τῆς ἡμέρας

the burden ˱of˲_the day

Here, the workers are using the possessive form to describe a burden that they had to bear during the day. If this is not clear in your language, you could express the idea in another. Alternate translation: “the burden during the day”
