SIL Open Translator’s Notes:

Section 13:31–35: Jesus gave a new commandment

In this section Jesus talks about how he, the Son of Man, has been glorified. Also, God has been glorified in him. Jesus also tells his disciples a new commandment.

Here are some other possible section headings:

A new commandment

Jesus commanded his disciples to love one another

The Son of Man has been glorified and God has been glorified in him

13:33a

Little children, I am with you only a little while longer.

My dear followers, I will be here with you^(plur) only a little while longer.
Dear ones, I will not be with you^(plur) much longer.

Little children: This phrase expresses Jesus’ love and concern for his disciples. In some languages a literal translation may indicate that Jesus was talking to children. It may be necessary to avoid this by using a different form of address. For example:

You my dear disciples (Western Bukidnon Manobo)

You whom I love dearly

I am with you only a little while longer: Jesus was referring to his death the next day and his ascension into heaven in less than two months. In some languages it may be natural to use future tense. For example:

I will be with you only a little longer (NIV)

13:33b

You will look for Me,

You^(plur) will seek me,
You^(plur) will try to find me.

You will look for Me: This clause indicates that the disciples would want to have Jesus with them after he went to heaven. But he will not be on earth with them anymore.

13:33c

and as I said to the Jews, so now I say to you:

and what I told the Jewish leaders earlier I am now telling you^(plur):
But I am going to repeat to you^(plur) what I said to the Jewish authorities:

and: The Greek conjunction that the BSB translates as and here introduces something that contrasts with the expected result of the disciples’ looking for Jesus. It may therefore be natural to make the contrast more explicit. For example:

but (GNT)

as I said to the Jews: Jesus reminded his listeners of what he said to the Jewish leaders in 8:21d. Here are other ways to translate this clause:

what I told the Jews (NCV)

the things/words I said/spoke to the Jewish leaders

the Jews: This phrase refers to same Jewish group as the same phrase in 8:22. There it seems to refer to the Pharisees, Jewish religious leaders. Use the same phrase that you used in 8:22. For example:

the Jewish leaders (NLT)

the Jewish authorities (GNT)

so now I say to you: This clause refers to what Jesus would say next. Jesus would say the same thing to the disciples that he earlier said to the Jewish leaders. For example:

now I tell you the same (NLT)

I am now repeating to you

Jesus had not yet said this, so it may be natural to use a future tense verb. For example:

I will tell you the same thing

I will repeat to you

General Comment on 13:33c

In some languages it may be natural to reverse the order of the clauses in 13:33c. For example:

I tell you now what I told the Jewish authorities (GNT)

13:33d

‘Where I am going, you cannot come.’

‘You^(plur) cannot go where I will go.’
that you^(plur) cannot go with me to where I will soon go.

Where I am going, you cannot come: 13:33d is a direct quotation of Jesus’ own words in 8:21d. Because of that, BSB uses quotation marks to indicate that Jesus was quoting himself. In some languages it may be natural to not use quotation marks. For example:

And as I told the Jewish leaders, you will search for me, but you can’t come where I am going. (NLT)

what I told the leaders of the Jews that you will not be able-to-go where I am going (Kankanaey Back Translation)

The Greek text emphasizes the pronouns I and you to contrast the two. Jesus will die and go to heaven, but the disciples will not be able to do the same, at least not yet.

Where I am going: This clause refers to Jesus dying and going to heaven.

you cannot come: The disciples could not die and go to heaven yet. Later they will be able to follow Jesus where he goes (see 13:36). This is different from the Jews in 8:21, who would die in their sins.

In some languages it may be natural to use a verb meaning “go” rather than come in this context. For example:

You cannot go (GNT)

General Comment on 13:33d

In some languages it may be natural to reverse the order of the clauses in 13:33d. For example:

You cannot go where I am going. (GNT)

uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / metaphor

τεκνία

(Some words not found in SR-GNT: Τεκνία ἔτι μικρόν μεθʼ ὑμῶν εἰμί Ζητήσετε μέ καί καθώς εἶπον τοῖς Ἰουδαίοις ὅτι Ὅπου ἐγώ ὑπάγω ὑμεῖς οὒ δύνασθε ἐλθεῖν καί ὑμῖν λέγω ἄρτι)

Jesus is using the phrase Little children to describe the disciples to whom he is speaking. He loves them as if they were his own children. If this might confuse your readers, you could translate this plainly or use a simile. Alternate translation: [You dear disciples who are like children to me]

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / synecdoche

τοῖς Ἰουδαίοις

˱to˲_the Jews

Here, the Jews refers to the Jewish leaders. See how you translated this term in [1:19](../01/19.md).

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / infostructure

καὶ καθὼς εἶπον τοῖς Ἰουδαίοις, ὅτι ὅπου ἐγὼ ὑπάγω, ὑμεῖς οὐ δύνασθε ἐλθεῖν, καὶ ὑμῖν λέγω ἄρτι

If it would be more natural in your language, you could change the order of these phrases. Alternate translation: [and just as I said to the Jews, now I also say this to you, ‘Where I go, you are not able to come]

Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / infostructure

ὅπου ἐγὼ ὑπάγω, ὑμεῖς οὐ δύνασθε ἐλθεῖν

See how you translated this sentence in [8:21](../08/21.md).
