UTN uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / activepassive

ἐρρέθη

˱it˲_/was/_said

If your language does not use the passive form in this way, you can state this in active form or in another way that is natural in your language. Alternate translation: “God commanded” or “Moses said”

Note 2 topic: writing-quotations

ὅτι ἐρρέθη

that ˱it˲_/was/_said

Here Jesus quotes from the Old Testament scriptures. The words Love your neighbor are from Leviticus 19:18. The words hate your enemy are what some people would say in addition to the quotation from the Old Testament. If it would be helpful to your readers, you could format these words in a different way and include this information in a footnote. Alternate translation: “people often quote the law by saying”

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / yousingular

ἀγαπήσεις τὸν πλησίον σου, καὶ μισήσεις τὸν ἐχθρόν σου

˱you˲_/will_be/_loving the neighbor ˱of˲_you and ˱you˲_/will_be/_hating the enemy ˱of˲_you

Since the author of the quotation is addressing each specific person who is part of God’s people, the command here is singular. If it would be helpful in your language, you could use a form that makes this clear. Alternate translation: “Each of you, love your neighbor and hate your enemy”

Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / genericnoun

τὸν πλησίον σου & τὸν ἐχθρόν σου

the neighbor ˱of˲_you & the enemy ˱of˲_you

The words neighbor and enemy represent neighbors and enemies in general, not one particular neighbor or enemy. If it would be helpful in your language, you could use a more natural expression. Alternate translation: “each of your neighbors … each of your enemies”

Note 5 topic: figures-of-speech / metaphor

τὸν πλησίον σου

the neighbor ˱of˲_you

Here Jesus refers to any member of one’s community or group as a neighbor. He is not referring just to people who live nearby. If it would be helpful in your language, you could state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: “your countrymen” or “everyone who belongs to your group”
