UTN uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: grammar-connect-logic-contrast

δὲ

but

Here, the word But introduces what Jesus says about how these things are just the beginning in contrast to how bad they seemed when he described them in the previous verses. If it would be helpful in your language, you could use a word or phrase that introduces this kind of contrast, or you could leave But untranslated. Alternate translation: “And yet,” or “However,”

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit

πάντα & ταῦτα

all & these_‹are›

Here, the phrase all these things refers to the things that Jesus has said will happen. If it would be helpful in your language, you could make that idea more explicit. Alternate translation: “all the things that I have described”

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / metaphor

ἀρχὴ ὠδίνων

/the/_beginning ˱of˲_birth_pains

Here Jesus speaks of the events that he has described as if they were the beginning of birth pains. He means that, just like birth pains, they are difficult and painful things that eventually lead to a happy and wonderful result. If possible, you should maintain the figure of speech or express the idea in simile form. Alternate translation: “are like the beginning of birth pains”
