OET interlinear ACTs 12:18

uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: writing-newevent

δὲ

(Some words not found in SR-GNT: γενομένης Δέ ἡμέρας ἦν τάραχος οὐκ ὀλίγος ἐν τοῖς στρατιώταις τί ἄρα ὁ Πέτρος ἐγένετο)

Luke is using the word translated as Now to introduce a significant development in this story. Use a word, phrase, or other method in your language that is natural for introducing a new development.

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / litotes

τάραχος οὐκ ὀλίγος

disturbance no little

Luke is using a figure of speech that expresses a positive meaning by using a negative word together with a word that is the opposite of the intended meaning. Alternate translation: [a great disturbance]

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / quotations

ἐν τοῖς στρατιώταις, τί ἄρα ὁ Πέτρος ἐγένετο

among the soldiers what consequently ¬the Peter became

It may be more natural in your language to have a direct quotation here. Alternate translation: [among the soldiers: “What then had Peter become?”]

τί ἄρα ὁ Πέτρος ἐγένετο

what consequently ¬the Peter became

The word translated as become can be used to indicate that a person has entered a new condition, and in this context it indicates that Peter has changed his location. Alternate translation: [where then Peter had gone]
