SIL Open Translator’s Notes:

Section 6:22–59: Jesus is the bread that gives life

In this section Jesus spoke in figurative language about how he himself is the source of eternal life. He called himself “the bread of life” and said that people must “eat” his flesh and “drink” his blood. These words caused a lot of argument.

Paragraph 6:35–40

Jesus told the people that he himself was the bread that gives life.

6:39a

And this is the will of Him who sent Me,

And this is what he who sent me wants me to do.
And God who sent me wants me

And this is the will of Him who sent Me: This clause introduces an explanation of what God the Father wanted him to do. See how you translated “will” in 6:38b.

Here are other ways to translate this clause:

Here is what the One who sent me wants me to do (NCV)

And this is the will of God (NLT)

and he wants (CEV)

6:39b

that I shall lose none of those He has given Me,

He wants me to lose none of the people whom he has given to me,
to protect/save everyone whom he gave me

that I shall lose none of those He has given Me: This clause indicates that God wanted Jesus to protect every one of his people. Jesus pleases his Father by protecting them all. The Greek here is more literally “that everything that he has given me, I should not lose it.” The word “everything” is the same word that was used in 6:37a. Here again it refers to all people that the Father has given to Jesus. For example:

that none of the ones he has given me will be lost (CEV)

that I should not lose any of all those he has given me (GNT)

I must not lose even one whom God gave me (NCV)

lose: The Greek word that the BSB translates as lose here refers to allowing something or someone to perish (die forever).

Here are other ways to translate this word:

fail to save/preserve any of those he has given me

permit/allow none of those that he has given me to die

6:39c

but raise them up at the last day.

but to raise them all up to live on the last day.
and to give them life at the end of the world.

but: The Greek conjunction that the BSB translates as but connects the negative statement in 6:39b to the positive statement in 6:39c. This kind of sentence emphasizes the positive statement. Languages have different ways to indicate this type of emphasis. For example:

Use the conjunction but as in the BSB. For example:
And it is the will of him who sent me that I should not lose any of all those he has given me, but that I should raise them all to life on the last day. (GNT)
I must not lose anyone God has given me. But I must raise them up on the last day. (ERV)
Use a conjunction other than but. This is a common way in English to show this type of emphasis. For example:
and he wants to make certain that none of the ones he has given me will be lost. Instead, he wants me to raise them to life on the last day. (CEV)
The will of my Father who sent me is that I will not allow any of those that he delivered to me to be lost. Rather, I will cause them to be brought back to life on the last day.
Do not use a conjunction. For example:
The one who sent me doesn’t want me to lose any of those he gave me. He wants me to bring them back to life on the last day. (GW)
He does not want me to lose any of the people that he has given to me. Not even one of them. He wants me to raise all of them up to life on the last day. (EASY)
Change the order of the clauses. For example:
He wants me to raise everyone whom he has given me on the last day and not lose anyone.

You should translate this emphasis in the way that is most natural in your language.

raise them up at the last day: The word raise here refers to making people alive again after they died physically (see 5:28–29). Jesus will cause all his people to live again.

them: The pronoun them refers to all those whom God has given to Jesus.

the last day: This phrase refers to the end of the world and the time when Jesus will judge everyone (see Matthew 7.22, 25.31–46). But it is also the day when Jesus will raise his people, which is what Jesus was talking about here.

uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit

τοῦ πέμψαντός με

˱of˲_the_‹one› (Some words not found in SR-GNT: τοῦτο Δέ ἐστίν τό θέλημα τοῦ πέμψαντος μέ ἵνα παν ὅ δέδωκεν μοί μή ἀπολέσω ἐξ αὐτοῦ ἀλλά ἀναστήσω αὐτό τῇ ἐσχάτῃ ἡμέρᾳ)

Here, the one who sent me refers to God. See how you translated this phrase in [4:34](../04/34.md).

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / litotes

πᾶν ὃ & μὴ ἀπολέσω ἐξ αὐτοῦ

(Some words not found in SR-GNT: τοῦτο Δέ ἐστίν τό θέλημα τοῦ πέμψαντος μέ ἵνα παν ὅ δέδωκεν μοί μή ἀπολέσω ἐξ αὐτοῦ ἀλλά ἀναστήσω αὐτό τῇ ἐσχάτῃ ἡμέρᾳ)

Jesus is using a figure of speech here to expresses a strong positive meaning by using a negative word together with a word that means the opposite of the intended meaning. If this is confusing in your language, you can express the meaning positively. Alternate translation: [I should keep all of them whom he has given]

Note 3 topic: writing-pronouns

μὴ ἀπολέσω ἐξ αὐτοῦ, ἀλλὰ ἀναστήσω αὐτὸ

Here, it refers to the whole group of believers as a whole. If it would be helpful in your language, you could state this explicitly or use a plural pronoun. Alternate translation: [I would not lose from the group of believers … but will raise that group up] or [I would not lose from them … but will raise them up]

Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / idiom

ἀναστήσω αὐτὸ

˱I˲_˓will_be˒_raising_up (Some words not found in SR-GNT: τοῦτο Δέ ἐστίν τό θέλημα τοῦ πέμψαντος μέ ἵνα παν ὅ δέδωκεν μοί μή ἀπολέσω ἐξ αὐτοῦ ἀλλά ἀναστήσω αὐτό τῇ ἐσχάτῃ ἡμέρᾳ)

Here, to raise up is an idiom for causing someone who has died to become alive again. If it would be helpful in your language, you could state this explicitly. Alternate translation: [will cause them to live again]

Note 5 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit

τῇ ἐσχάτῃ ἡμέρᾳ

˱on˲_the last day

Here, the last day refers to “the day of the Lord,” which is the time when God judges everyone, Jesus returns to earth, and the bodies of those who are dead are raised from their graves. (See: dayofthelord) If it would be helpful to your readers, you could state this explicitly. Alternate translation: [on the day when I return and judge everyone]
