OET interlinear ACTs 5:23

uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / activepassive

τὸ δεσμωτήριον εὕρομεν κεκλεισμένον ἐν πάσῃ ἀσφαλείᾳ, καὶ τοὺς φύλακας

(Some words not found in SR-GNT: λέγοντες ὅτι τό δεσμωτήριον Εὕρομεν κεκλεισμένον ἐν πάσῃ ἀσφαλείᾳ καί τούς φύλακας ἑστῶτας ἐπί τῶν θυρῶν ἀνοίξαντες δέ ἔσω οὐδένα εὕρομεν)

If it would be helpful in your language, you could use an active verbal form in place of the passive form shut, and you can say who did the action. Alternate translation: [We found that the guards had shut the prison in all security and we found the guards]

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / abstractnouns

ἐν πάσῃ ἀσφαλείᾳ

with all security

If your language does not use an abstract noun for the idea behind the word security, you could express the same idea with an adverb such as “securely.” The word all is an intensifier. Alternate translation: [very securely]

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit

ἀνοίξαντες

˓having˒_opened_up

Your language may require you to specify the object of opened. Alternate translation: [once we opened the doors]

Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / hyperbole

ἔσω οὐδένα εὕρομεν

inside no_one ˱we˲_found

By no one, the officers mean that they found none of the men they had been sent to bring, that is, none of the apostles. It is possible that other people were also being held in the prison, but the angel would not have released them, and they would still have been inside. Alternate translation: [we did not find any of those men inside]
