TSNTyndale Study Notes:

1:7 Someone is coming: John knew that he was preparing for the Messiah’s coming, but he did not yet know that Jesus was he (cp. Luke 7:18-23).


UTNuW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: writing-quotations

λέγων

saying

Consider natural ways of introducing direct quotations in your language. Alternate translation: “and he said”

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / metaphor

ἔρχεται & ὀπίσω μου

/is/_coming & after me

Here John speaks as if someone is walking behind him. He means that soon someone will continue what he has started doing. If it would be helpful in your language, you could state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: “will preach after I have preached”

Note 3 topic: translate-tense

ἔρχεται

/is/_coming

Here John uses the present tense to refer to something that will certainly happen in the future. If it would be helpful in your language, you could use the future tense here. Alternate translation: “will come”

Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit

οὐκ εἰμὶ ἱκανὸς, κύψας λῦσαι τὸν ἱμάντα τῶν ὑποδημάτων αὐτοῦ

not ˱I˲_am worthy /having/_bent_down /to/_untie the strap ˱of˲_the sandals ˱of˲_him

Here, to untie the strap of someone’s sandals was a duty of a slave. John means that he is not worthy to be a slave to this person who is coming after him. If it would be helpful to your readers, you could make that idea more explicit. Alternate translation: “I am not worthy to be the slave who, stooping down, unties the strap of his sandals” or “I am not worthy to act as his slave”

Note 5 topic: figures-of-speech / explicitinfo

ἱκανὸς, κύψας λῦσαι

worthy /having/_bent_down /to/_untie

The expression stooping down contains extra information that would be unnatural to express in some languages. If this is true of your language, you could shorten the expression. Alternate translation: “worthy to untie”

Note 6 topic: translate-unknown

λῦσαι τὸν ἱμάντα τῶν ὑποδημάτων αὐτοῦ

/to/_untie the strap ˱of˲_the sandals ˱of˲_him

In Jesus’ culture, people wore sandals on their feet by tying them on with a strap. To take off the sandals, someone had to untie the strap. If it would be helpful in your language, you could state more explicitly what it means to untie the strap, or you could use a more general term. Alternate translation: “to help him remove his sandals by untying the strap” or “to remove his sandals”
