OET interlinear YHN (JHN) 20:17

uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / pastforfuture

λέγει

/is/_saying

Here John uses the present tense in past narration in order to call attention to a development in the story.

Note 2 topic: guidelines-sonofgodprinciples

τὸν Πατέρα & τὸν Πατέρα μου & Πατέρα ὑμῶν

the Father & the Father ˱of˲_me & /the/_Father ˱of˲_you_all

Father is an important title for God.

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit

τοὺς ἀδελφούς μου

the brothers ˱of˲_me

Jesus used the word my brothers here to refer to his disciples. If this might confuse your readers, you could state this explicitly. Alternate translation: [my disciples, who are like brothers,]

Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / quotesinquotes

εἰπὲ αὐτοῖς, ἀναβαίνω πρὸς τὸν Πατέρα μου, καὶ Πατέρα ὑμῶν, καὶ Θεόν μου, καὶ Θεὸν ὑμῶν

say ˱to˲_them ˱I˲_/am/_going_up to the Father ˱of˲_me and /the/_Father ˱of˲_you_all and God ˱of˲_me and God ˱of˲_you_all

If the direct quotation inside a direct quotation would be confusing in your language, you could translate the second direct quotation as an indirect quotation. Alternate translation: [say to them that I go up to my Father and your Father, and my God and your God]

Note 5 topic: figures-of-speech / pastforfuture

ἀναβαίνω

˱I˲_/am/_going_up

Here Jesus uses the present tense I go up to refer to something that will happen in the near future. If it would not be natural to do that in your language, you could use the future tense in your translation. Alternate translation: [I will go up]

Note 6 topic: figures-of-speech / doublet

πρὸς τὸν Πατέρα μου, καὶ Πατέρα ὑμῶν, καὶ Θεόν μου, καὶ Θεὸν ὑμῶν

to the Father to to the Father ˱of˲_me and /the/_Father ˱of˲_you_all and God ˱of˲_me and God ˱of˲_you_all

These two long phrases mean basically the same thing. The repetition is used to emphasize to whom Jesus will return. If your language does not use repetition in this way, you could combine these phrases. Alternate translation: [to God, who is my Father and your Father]
