OET interlinear ACTs 28:28

uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / imperative3p

γνωστὸν & ἔστω

known & ˱it˲_let_be

If your language does not use the third-person imperative in this way, you could state this in another way that is natural in your language. Alternate translation: “may it be known to you”

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / activepassive

τοῖς ἔθνεσιν ἀπεστάλη τοῦτο τὸ σωτήριον τοῦ Θεοῦ

˱to˲_the pagans /was/_sent_out this ¬the salvation ¬the ˱of˲_God

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. If you need to say who has done the action, it is clear from the context that it was God. Alternate translation: “God has sent me to proclaim this salvation of his to the Gentiles”

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / abstractnouns

τοῦτο τὸ σωτήριον τοῦ Θεοῦ

this ¬the salvation ¬the ˱of˲_God

If your language does not use an abstract noun for the idea of salvation, you could express the same idea in another way. Alternate translation: “this message about how God saves people”

Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / idiom

αὐτοὶ & ἀκούσονται

they & /will_be/_hearing

In this context the word hear likely means “understand and obey,” since Paul is drawing a contrast with the stubborn response of many of the Jews. You may wish to make this clear in your translation. Alternate translation: “they will understand the message and obey it”
