OET interlinear HEB 3:18

uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / rquestion

τίσιν & ὤμοσεν μὴ εἰσελεύσεσθαι εἰς τὴν κατάπαυσιν αὐτοῦ, εἰ μὴ τοῖς ἀπειθήσασιν?

˱to˲_whom_all & ˱he˲_swore not /going_to_be/_coming_in into the rest ˱of˲_him except ¬not/lest ˱to˲_the_‹ones› /having/_disbelieved

The author does not ask this question because he is looking for information. Rather, he asks it to involve the audience in what he is arguing. The second half of the question gives the answer to the first half: “it was those who disobeyed.” If it would be helpful in your language, you could express the idea by using a form that identifies those who disobeyed with “those to whom he swore.” Alternate translation: “you know who they are to whom he swore that they would not enter into his rest. It was to those who disobeyed.” or “to whom did he swear that they would not enter into his rest? It was to those who disobeyed.”

Note 2 topic: writing-quotations

ὤμοσεν μὴ εἰσελεύσεσθαι εἰς τὴν κατάπαυσιν αὐτοῦ

˱he˲_swore not /going_to_be/_coming_in into the rest ˱of˲_him

The author uses the clause they would not enter into his rest to refer back to the words that the quotation used. See how you translated “If they will enter into my rest” in 3:11. Alternate translation: “did he swear, ‘they will never enter into my rest,’”
