UTN uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: grammar-connect-time-simultaneous

τότε

then

Here, the word Then indicates that the prophecy was fulfilled at the time when Herod had his soldiers kill the baby boys in Bethlehem. If it would be helpful in your language, you could use a word or phrase that introduces something that happens at the same time. Alternate translation: “And so” or “It was then that”

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / activepassive

ἐπληρώθη τὸ ῥηθὲν

/was/_fulfilled the_‹word› /having_been/_spoken

See how you translated the similar passive forms in 1:22 and 2:15. Alternate translation: “these events fulfilled what God spoke”

Note 3 topic: writing-quotations

λέγοντος

saying

In Matthew’s culture, saying was a normal way to introduce a quotation from an important text, in this case, the Old Testament book written by Jeremiah the prophet (see Jeremiah 31:15). If it would be helpful in your language, you could use a comparable phrase that indicates that Matthew is quoting from an important text. Alternate translation: “who wrote in his book” or “who declared”
