OET interlinear ACTs 22:22

uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / metonymy

τούτου τοῦ λόγου

this ¬the word

This could mean: (1) that the crowd became upset when they heard the specific word “Gentiles.” Alternate translation: [they heard the word “Gentiles,”]; (2) that the term word means what Paul said by using words. If it would be helpful in your language, you could state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: [Paul says this]

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / metaphor

ἐπῆραν τὴν φωνὴν αὐτῶν λέγοντες

˱they˲_lifted_up (Some words not found in SR-GNT: ἤκουον Δέ αὐτοῦ ἄχρι τούτου τοῦ λόγου καί ἐπῆραν τήν φωνήν αὐτῶν λέγοντες Αἶρε ἀπό τῆς γῆς τόν τοιοῦτον οὒ γάρ καθῆκεν αὐτόν ζῆν)

Luke is speaking as if the crowd in Jerusalem literally lifted up its voice. He means that they spoke loudly. If it would be clearer in your language, you could state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: [they shouted]

τὴν φωνὴν αὐτῶν

(Some words not found in SR-GNT: ἤκουον Δέ αὐτοῦ ἄχρι τούτου τοῦ λόγου καί ἐπῆραν τήν φωνήν αὐτῶν λέγοντες Αἶρε ἀπό τῆς γῆς τόν τοιοῦτον οὒ γάρ καθῆκεν αὐτόν ζῆν)

If you would like to retain the metaphor in your translation of “lifting up a voice” but it would be unusual in your language to speak as if a whole group of people had one voice, you could make this plural. Alternate translation: [their voices]

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / metonymy

αἶρε ἀπὸ τῆς γῆς τὸν τοιοῦτον

(Some words not found in SR-GNT: ἤκουον Δέ αὐτοῦ ἄχρι τούτου τοῦ λόγου καί ἐπῆραν τήν φωνήν αὐτῶν λέγοντες Αἶρε ἀπό τῆς γῆς τόν τοιοῦτον οὒ γάρ καθῆκεν αὐτόν ζῆν)

The crowd is referring to Paul’s death by association with the way they would remove him from the earth if they killed him. If it would be helpful in your language, you could use an equivalent expression or express the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: [Kill such a one]

Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit

οὐ & καθῆκεν αὐτὸν ζῆν

(Some words not found in SR-GNT: ἤκουον Δέ αὐτοῦ ἄχρι τούτου τοῦ λόγου καί ἐπῆραν τήν φωνήν αὐτῶν λέγοντες Αἶρε ἀπό τῆς γῆς τόν τοιοῦτον οὒ γάρ καθῆκεν αὐτόν ζῆν)

The crowd meant implicitly that it was not right for Paul to live even long enough to offer the explanation he was giving. You can indicate this in your translation if that would be helpful to your readers. Alternate translation: [we should have killed him even before he spoke to us]
