OET interlinear ACTs 19:36

uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / activepassive

κατεσταλμένους ὑπάρχειν

˓having_been˒_calmed ˓to_be˒_being

If your language does not use this passive form, you could express the idea in active form or in another way that is natural in your language. Alternate translation: [to calm down]

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit

μηδὲν προπετὲς πράσσειν

(Some words not found in SR-GNT: ἀναντιρρήτων Οὖν ὄντων τούτων δέον ἐστίν ὑμᾶς κατεσταλμένους ὑπάρχειν καί μηδέν προπετές πράσσειν)

The city clerk means implicitly that it would be rash for the people to do anything to harm Gaius and Aristarchus, as he says in the next verse. You can include this information if that would be helpful to your readers. Alternate translation: [not to act impulsively and hurt the two men you have brought here]

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / doublenegatives

μηδὲν προπετὲς πράσσειν

(Some words not found in SR-GNT: ἀναντιρρήτων Οὖν ὄντων τούτων δέον ἐστίν ὑμᾶς κατεσταλμένους ὑπάρχειν καί μηδέν προπετές πράσσειν)

If it would be clearer in your language, you could use a positive expression to translate this double negative that consists of the negative word nothing and the negative adjective rash. Alternate translation: [to be careful about what you do]
