SIL Open Translator’s Notes:

Section 13:1–20: Jesus washed his disciples’ feet

Beginning in this section, Jesus ate supper with the disciples for the last time. First he washed their feet as an example of loving service.

Here are some other possible section headings:

Jesus washed his disciples’ feet at the last supper

Jesus set an example by washing feet

Jesus served his disciples by washing their feet

Paragraph 13:12–17

In this paragraph Jesus explained why he washed his disciples’ feet. Although he was their master, he served them. Now they should serve each other.

13:17a

If you know these things,

If you know these things: The Greek word that the BSB translates as If here implies that the disciples did know these things. The condition is assumed to be true. For example:

Now that you know these things (NIV)

You know these things (CEV)

you know these things: This phrase refers to Jesus’ disciples understanding what he just said in verses 13–16. There he talked about his example and its meaning, that his followers should serve others in humility. For example:

you understand all of this (GW)

13:17b

you will be blessed if you do them.

you will be blessed if you do them: Jesus’ disciples would be blessed if they did as he showed them, following his example of service to others. For example:

you are blessed whenever you follow my example (GW)

you will be blessed: The Greek word that the BSB translates as blessed in this context means “happy, enjoying God’s favor.” God would be pleased with them and so their situation would be good if the condition (“you do them”) was fulfilled. See how you translated this word in Matthew 5:3–11. For example:

God will bless you (GW)

happy are you (GNT)

you will be truly happy

you will have joy

you: This pronoun is plural and refers to the disciples.

if you do them: This clause refers to doing what Jesus said and did, serving others in a humble way. It is the condition for them being blessed. For example:

if you act upon it (REB)

if you follow them

uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: grammar-connect-condition-fact

εἰ ταῦτα οἴδατε

(Some words not found in SR-GNT: Εἰ ταῦτα οἴδατε μακάριοι ἐστέ ἐάν ποιῆτε αὐτά)

Jesus is speaking as if this were a hypothetical possibility, but he means that it is actually true. If your language does not state something as a condition if it is certain or true, and if your readers might think that what Jesus is saying is not certain, then you could translate his words as an affirmative statement. Alternate translation: [If you know these things, which you do,]

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / activepassive

μακάριοί ἐστε

(Some words not found in SR-GNT: Εἰ ταῦτα οἴδατε μακάριοι ἐστέ ἐάν ποιῆτε αὐτά)

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. If you must state who did the action, Jesus implies that God did it. See the UST.

OET (OET-RV) If you can figure all this out and then do it, you will be blessed by God.

Note: The OET-RV is still only a first draft, and so far only a few words have been (mostly automatically) matched to the Hebrew or Greek words that they’re translated from.
