UTN uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: grammar-connect-logic-result

διὰ τοῦτο καὶ, ὑμεῖς γίνεσθε ἕτοιμοι, ὅτι ᾗ οὐ δοκεῖτε ὥρᾳ, ὁ Υἱὸς τοῦ Ἀνθρώπου ἔρχεται

because_of this also you_all /be/_becoming ready because ˱in˲_that not ˱you_all˲_/are/_supposing hour the Son ¬the ˱of˲_Man /is/_coming

If it would be more natural in your language, you could reverse the order of these clauses, since the second and third clauses give the reason for the result that the first clause describes. Alternate translation: “For this reason, because the Son of Man comes in that hour you do not think, you also be ready”

Note 2 topic: grammar-connect-logic-result

διὰ τοῦτο

because_of this

Here, the phrase For this reason introduces how Jesus applies the story about the master of the house and the thief. If it would be helpful in your language, you could use a word or phrase that introduces an application or implication. Alternate translation: “Here is what that means:” or “Given that illustration,”

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / idiom

ᾗ & ὥρᾳ

˱in˲_that & hour

Here, the word hour refers to a specific moment in time. If it would be helpful in your language, you could use a comparable phrase or state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: “at that time” or “at that moment”

Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit

οὐ δοκεῖτε

not ˱you_all˲_/are/_supposing

Here Jesus means that the Son of Man will come when they do not think he will. In other words, his coming will be unexpected. If it would be helpful in your language, you could make that idea more explicit. Alternate translation: “that you do not think he will”

Note 5 topic: figures-of-speech / 123person

ὁ Υἱὸς τοῦ Ἀνθρώπου

the Son ¬the ˱of˲_Man

Here Jesus speaks about himself in the third person. If it would be helpful in your language, you could use the first person. Alternate translation: “I, who am the Son of Man, come”

Note 6 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit

ὁ Υἱὸς τοῦ Ἀνθρώπου ἔρχεται

the Son ¬the ˱of˲_Man /is/_coming

See how you translated “coming” in 24:37. Alternate translation: “the Son of Man comes back to this world” or “the Son of Man, after leaving this world, comes back”

Note 7 topic: translate-tense

ἔρχεται

/is/_coming

Here Jesus uses the present tense to refer to when he will come in the future. If it would be helpful in your language, you could use whatever tense would be natural to refer to this action. Alternate translation: “will come”
