OET (OET-LV) The Yaʸsous answered to_them:
Not I chose you_all the twelve, and one of you_all is a_devil?

OET (OET-RV) Yeshua responded, “Didn’t I choose all twelve of you myself? And yet one of you is the devil.”[fn]

6:70 The scriptures appear to teach that although there’s many ‘demons’, there’s only one ‘devil’.

SIL Open Translator’s Notes:

Section 6:60–71: Jesus had the words of eternal life

This section describes Jesus’ followers dividing into groups. Many of them rejected Jesus’ teaching that he was the bread of life, and they stopped following him. But the twelve (12) apostles, with Simon Peter speaking for them, understood that Jesus brought them true words from God that give life.

Here are other possible titles for this section:

Simon Peter recognized that Jesus had the words of eternal life

Many of Jesus’ followers stopped following him

Paragraph 6:66–71

This paragraph tells the result of Jesus’ words. His disciples reacted in one of two ways: they rejected him or believed him.

6:70a

Jesus answered them, “Have I not chosen you, the Twelve?

Have I not chosen you, the Twelve?: This is a rhetorical question. It is in a form that expects the answer “yes.” Jesus used it to say that he had chosen the twelve (12) disciples. There are two ways to translate this question:

Translate this rhetorical question in a way that is natural in your language.

6:70b

Yet one of you is a devil!”

Yet one of you is a devil: Jesus indicated that even though he had chosen the twelve disciples, he knew that one of them was evil. He did not say who this man was.

a devil: This phrase indicates that one of the disciples was controlled by the devil. Jesus was not saying that he was literally a devil.

Here are other ways to translate this phrase:

the devil (NET)

a servant of Satan (EASY)

under the control of Satan (T4T)

uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / rquestion

οὐκ ἐγὼ ὑμᾶς τοὺς δώδεκα ἐξελεξάμην, καὶ ἐξ ὑμῶν εἷς διάβολός ἐστιν

(Some words not found in SR-GNT: ἀπεκρίθη αὐτοῖς Ὁ Ἰησοῦς Οὐκ ἐγώ ὑμᾶς τούς δώδεκα ἐξελεξάμην καί ἐξ ὑμῶν εἱς διάβολος ἐστίν)

Jesus gives this remark in the form of a question in order to emphasize that one of the twelve disciples will betray him. Alternate translation: [I chose you, the Twelve, myself, and one of you is a devil!]

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / nominaladj

τοὺς δώδεκα

(Some words not found in SR-GNT: ἀπεκρίθη αὐτοῖς Ὁ Ἰησοῦς Οὐκ ἐγώ ὑμᾶς τούς δώδεκα ἐξελεξάμην καί ἐξ ὑμῶν εἱς διάβολος ἐστίν)

See how you translated the Twelve in verse [67](../06/67.md).

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit

ἐξ ὑμῶν εἷς διάβολός ἐστιν

of you_all (Some words not found in SR-GNT: ἀπεκρίθη αὐτοῖς Ὁ Ἰησοῦς Οὐκ ἐγώ ὑμᾶς τούς δώδεκα ἐξελεξάμην καί ἐξ ὑμῶν εἱς διάβολος ἐστίν)

The word devil could mean: (1) one of Jesus’ twelve disciples was a wicked person whose thoughts and actions resembled those of the devil or was being influenced or controlled by the devil. It does not mean that this person actually was the devil in human form. It also does not imply that there is more than one devil. Alternate translation: [one of you is wicked like the devil] or [one of you is controlled by the devil]; (2) one of Jesus’ twelve disciples was speaking harmful and untrue things about Jesus to others. This meaning is possible because the word translated as devil can also mean “slanderer.” Alternate translation: [one of you is a slanderer]
