OET interlinear ACTs 3:17

uW Translation Notes:

καὶ νῦν

(Some words not found in SR-GNT: Καί νῦν ἀδελφοί οἶδα ὅτι κατά ἄγνοιαν ἐπράξατε ὥσπερ καί οἱ ἄρχοντες ὑμῶν)

Peter uses the expression And now to shift the people’s attention away from the lame man so that he can speak to them directly. In your translation, use a word, phrase, or other method in your language that would be natural for this same purpose.

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / metaphor

ἀδελφοί

brothers

Peter addresses the people as his brothers because they are related to him as fellow descendants of the founders of the Jewish nation. Alternate translation: [my kinsmen]

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit

κατὰ ἄγνοιαν ἐπράξατε

(Some words not found in SR-GNT: Καί νῦν ἀδελφοί οἶδα ὅτι κατά ἄγνοιαν ἐπράξατε ὥσπερ καί οἱ ἄρχοντες ὑμῶν)

Peter likely means that the people acted in ignorance of the fact that Jesus was the Messiah. If it would be helpful to your readers, you could state that explicitly. Alternate translation: [you acted in ignorance of the fact that Jesus was the Messiah]

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / ellipsis

ὥσπερ καὶ οἱ ἄρχοντες ὑμῶν

as (Some words not found in SR-GNT: Καί νῦν ἀδελφοί οἶδα ὅτι κατά ἄγνοιαν ἐπράξατε ὥσπερ καί οἱ ἄρχοντες ὑμῶν)

Peter is leaving out some of the words that in many languages a sentence would need in order to be complete. You can supply these words from earlier in the sentence. Alternate translation: [and that your rulers also acted in ignorance]
