Therefore the the other apprentice/follower came_out which was known of_the chief_priest, and he_spoke to_the doorkeeper and brought_in the Petros.

SIL Open Translator’s Notes:

Section 18:15–18: Peter denied Jesus

This section reports that Peter secretly followed Jesus to the home of the high priest. There he denied that he was a disciple of Jesus.

Here are other possible section headings:

Peter denied being Jesus’ disciple

Peter denied knowing Jesus the first time

Peter said that he was not a follower of Jesus

Paragraph 18:15–17

Peter denied that he was one of Jesus’ disciples.

18:16a

But Peter stood outside at the door.

But Peter stood outside at the door: Here and through 18:18, Simon Peter is referred to as just Peter. The guard at the gate did not know Peter and did not allow Peter to come into the courtyard. So Peter remained outside the wall, near the gate to the compound. For example:

But Peter waited outside near the door. (NCV)

But: The Greek conjunction that the BSB translates as But indicates the contrast between the other disciple going in and Peter staying outside.

Peter stood: The verb that the BSB translates as stood indicates that Peter had to wait outside the wall. He was not allowed to enter the high priest’s compound with Jesus and the guards and the other unidentified disciple. If a literal translation implies that Peter did not want to enter, it may be good to correct that idea. For example:

but Peter had to wait outside at the door (NIV)

but Peter was left standing at the door outside (JBP)

outside: This word refers to being in the street rather than in the courtyard. The courtyard was also outside because it did not have a roof, but it was inside the wall.

at the door: The word that the BSB translates as at the door here refers to the entrance to the courtyard. This entrance was an opening in the wall with a door to allow people to go in and out of the courtyard. A servant was at the door to open and close it. Translate this idea in a way that is natural in your language. For example:

at the entrance

18:16b

Then the disciple who was known to the high priest went out

Then the disciple: This disciple is the same person who came with Peter and was introduced in 18:15. See how you referred to this person there.

who was known to the high priest: This clause tells which disciple John is talking about. See how you translated this idea in 18:15. Here are other ways to translate this clause:

the disciple whom the high priest knew

the high priest’s friend

went out: The verb that the BSB translates as went out refers to going outside the gate to speak to the guard standing there.

18:16c

and spoke to the doorkeeper, and brought Peter in.

spoke to the doorkeeper: This clause does not make explicit what the disciple said. However, the context implies that the disciple asked the guard to allow Peter to come into the courtyard. In some languages it is more natural to include some or all of this implicit information. For example:

asked the guard at the gate to allow Peter to enter the courtyard and she agreed

the doorkeeper: The phrase that the BSB translates as the doorkeeper refers to the female servant who was responsible for allowing visitors to enter the courtyard. We do not know how old she was. Some translations say “woman” and some say “girl.” However her age is not important. Use the expression that is natural for a female servant with this role. For example:

the guard(fem)

the girl on duty at the door (REB)

and brought Peter in: This clause indicates that the guard allowed Peter to enter, and that the other disciple then returned with Peter into the courtyard. In some languages it is more natural to translate this clause with the guard as the subject. For example:

and she let Peter in (NLT)

General Comment on 18:15c,16c

The woman guarding the gate is not mentioned until 18:16c, but 18:15c implies that the guard allowed the unidentified disciple to enter. In some languages it may be natural to rearrange the information and mention the servant at the gate in 18:15c. For example:

15c The woman guarding the gate allowed that disciple to enter the high priest’s courtyard with Jesus…. 16cHe spoke to the guard at the gate…

uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit

ὁ μαθητὴς ὁ ἄλλος

¬the the ¬the which (Some words not found in SR-GNT: ὁ Δέ Πέτρος εἱστήκει πρός τῇ θύρᾳ ἔξω ἐξῆλθεν Οὖν ὁ μαθητής ὁ ἄλλος ὁ ἦν γνωστός τοῦ ἀρχιερέως καί εἶπεν τῇ θυρωρῷ καί εἰσήγαγεν τόν Πέτρον)

See how you translated the other disciple in the previous verse.

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / activepassive

ὅς ἦν γνωστὸς τοῦ ἀρχιερέως

(Some words not found in SR-GNT: ὁ Δέ Πέτρος εἱστήκει πρός τῇ θύρᾳ ἔξω ἐξῆλθεν Οὖν ὁ μαθητής ὁ ἄλλος ὁ ἦν γνωστός τοῦ ἀρχιερέως καί εἶπεν τῇ θυρωρῷ καί εἰσήγαγεν τόν Πέτρον)

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. Alternate translation: [whom the high priest knew]

OET (OET-LV) But the Petros had_stood at the door outside.
Therefore the the other apprentice/follower came_out which was known of_the chief_priest, and he_spoke to_the doorkeeper and brought_in the Petros.

OET (OET-RV) while Peter waited outside at the door. Then the other apprentice who was known to the chief priest went back and spoke to the woman at the door and brought Peter in too.

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.

Acknowledgements: The SR Greek text, lemmas, morphology, and VLT gloss are all thanks to the CNTR.
