OET interlinear HEB 10:33

uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: grammar-connect-words-phrases

τοῦτο μὲν & τοῦτο δὲ

this on_one_hand & this on_the_other_hand

Here, the phrases at times indeed and but at other times introduce two different aspects of the sufferings that the audience endured in the past. The two halves of this sentence are not contrasting but rather identify two kinds of suffering. If it would be helpful in your language, you could words or phrases that introduce two components or aspects of a thing. Alternate translation: “on some occasion … and on other occasions”

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / activepassive

ὀνειδισμοῖς τε καὶ θλίψεσιν θεατριζόμενοι

˱by˲_derisions both and tribulations /being/_publicly_exposed

If your language does not use the passive form in this way, you could express the idea in active form or in another way that is natural in your language. The author uses the passive form here to focus on those who are publicly exposed rather than on the people doing the exposing. If you must state who did the action, you could use an indefinite subject. Alternate translation: “publicly experiencing both reproach and persecution” or “others publicly exposing you both to reproach and persecution”

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / activepassive

τῶν οὕτως ἀναστρεφομένων

˱of˲_the_‹ones› thus /being/_conducted_‹them›

If your language does not use the passive form in this way, you could express the idea in active form or in another way that is natural in your language. The author uses the passive form here to focus on those who are being treated in this way rather than on the people “treating” them in this way. If you must state who did the action, you could use an indefinite subject. Alternate translation: “of the ones experiencing this kind of treatment” or “of those whom others treated in this way”
