OET interlinear ACTs 8:20

uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / exclamations

τὸ ἀργύριόν σου, σὺν σοὶ εἴη εἰς ἀπώλειαν

(Some words not found in SR-GNT: Πέτρος Δέ εἶπεν πρός αὐτόν Τό ἀργύριον σοῦ σύν σοί εἴη εἰς ἀπώλειαν ὅτι τήν δωρεάν τοῦ Θεοῦ ἐνόμισας διά χρημάτων κτᾶσθαι)

Peter is using the exclamation form to emphasize how forcefully he rejects Simon’s offer. You may want to use an exclamation to convey this same emphasis in your language. Alternate translation: [I refuse your offer! I can see that you are going to perdition, and you can take your money with you!]

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / metonymy

τὸ ἀργύριόν

(Some words not found in SR-GNT: Πέτρος Δέ εἶπεν πρός αὐτόν Τό ἀργύριον σοῦ σύν σοί εἴη εἰς ἀπώλειαν ὅτι τήν δωρεάν τοῦ Θεοῦ ἐνόμισας διά χρημάτων κτᾶσθαι)

Peter is referring to money by association with the way that silver was used for money at this time. Alternate translation: [money]

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / metonymy

τὴν δωρεὰν τοῦ Θεοῦ

(Some words not found in SR-GNT: Πέτρος Δέ εἶπεν πρός αὐτόν Τό ἀργύριον σοῦ σύν σοί εἴη εἰς ἀπώλειαν ὅτι τήν δωρεάν τοῦ Θεοῦ ἐνόμισας διά χρημάτων κτᾶσθαι)

Peter is referring to the ability to confer the Holy Spirit by the laying on of hands. Since this is an ability that only God can give, by association Peter calls it the gift of God. Alternate translation: [the power to confer the Holy Spirit]
