Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / metaphor
οἱ πλύνοντες τὰς στολὰς αὐτῶν
the_‹ones› washing the robes ˱of˲_them
Jesus is speaking as if people who repent of their sins and start living in a way that pleases God are literally washing their robes. See how you translated the similar expression in 7:14.
Note 2 topic: translate-textvariants
οἱ πλύνοντες τὰς στολὰς αὐτῶν
the_‹ones› washing the robes ˱of˲_them
Some ancient manuscripts read the ones washing their robes. ULT follows that reading. Other ancient manuscripts read “the ones doing his commandments.” If a translation of the Bible exists in your region, you may wish to use the reading that it uses. If a translation of the Bible does not exist in your region, you may wish to use the reading of ULT.
Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / idiom
ἔσται ἡ ἐξουσία αὐτῶν ἐπὶ τὸ ξύλον τῆς ζωῆς
˱it˲_will_be the right ˱of˲_them to the tree ¬the ˱of˲_life
If it would be helpful in your language, you could state the meaning of this expression plainly. Alternate translation: “they will have the right to eat from the tree of life”
