26:39 If it is possible: Jesus’ heart’s desire was for uninterrupted communion with the Father instead of coming under God’s wrath.
• Yet I want your will to be done: His resolution to do the Father’s will was firm (4:1-11; 16:23; John 6:38).
Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / go
προσελθὼν μικρὸν
/having/_approached /a/_little
In a context such as this, your language might say “come” instead of gone. Alternate translation: “having come a little farther”
Note 2 topic: translate-symaction
ἔπεσεν ἐπὶ πρόσωπον αὐτοῦ
˱he˲_fell on /the/_face ˱of˲_him
In Matthew’s culture, falling on one’s face refers to kneeling down and putting one’s face close to the ground. This was a position used to show respect and reverence. If it would be helpful in your language, you could use a comparable expression for a physical position used to show respect or worship, or you could express the idea plainly. Alternate translation: “he bowed down” or “he lay down to show respect”
Note 3 topic: writing-quotations
προσευχόμενος καὶ λέγων
praying and saying
Consider natural ways of introducing direct quotations in your language. Alternate translation: “and he asked God”
Note 4 topic: guidelines-sonofgodprinciples
Πάτερ
Father
Father is an important title that describe the relationship between God the Father and Jesus his Son.
Note 5 topic: figures-of-speech / imperative3p
παρελθέτω ἀπ’ ἐμοῦ τὸ ποτήριον τοῦτο
(Some words not found in SR-GNT: καὶ προσελθὼν μικρὸν ἔπεσεν ἐπὶ πρόσωπον αὐτοῦ προσευχόμενος καὶ λέγων Πάτερ μου εἰ δυνατόν ἐστιν παρελθάτω ἀπʼ ἐμοῦ τὸ ποτήριον τοῦτο πλὴν οὐχ ὡς ἐγὼ θέλω ἀλλʼ ὡς σύ)
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: “cause this cup to pass away from me” or “allow this cup to pass away from me”
Note 6 topic: figures-of-speech / metaphor
τὸ ποτήριον τοῦτο
¬the cup this
Jesus is referring to the sufferings he will soon experience as if they were a cup of bitter-tasting liquid that he would have to drink. If it would be helpful in your language, you could use simile form or state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: “this suffering that is like a cup full of poison” or “this suffering”
Note 7 topic: figures-of-speech / ellipsis
οὐχ ὡς ἐγὼ θέλω, ἀλλ’ ὡς σύ
not as I /am/_wanting but as you
Jesus is leaving out some of the words that a sentence would need in many languages to be complete. If it would be clearer in your language, you could supply these words from the context. Alternate translation: “do not do as I will, but do as you will”
Note 8 topic: figures-of-speech / yousingular
σύ
you
Since Jesus is speaking to his Father, the word you here is singular.
