OET (OET-LV) And the seventy two returned with joy saying:
master, even the demons is_being_subjected to_us in the name of_you.
OET (OET-RV) In time the seventy-two that had been sent out came back excited, saying, “Master, even the demons listened to us when we used your name and authority.”
Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit
ὑπέστρεψαν δὲ οἱ ἑβδομήκοντα δύο
returned and the seventy two
Some languages will need to say that the 72 actually went out first, as UST does. Alternate translation: “So the 72 disciples went out and did as Jesus had told them to do, and then they returned”
Note 2 topic: translate-textvariants
ἑβδομήκοντα δύο
seventy two
As in 10:1, see the discussion of textual issues at the end of the General Notes to this chapter to decide whether to say 72 or “70” in your translation.
Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / activepassive
τὰ δαιμόνια ὑποτάσσεται ἡμῖν
the demons /is_being/_subjected ˱to˲_us
If it would be helpful in your language, you could express this with an active form. Alternate translation: “the demons obey us”
Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / metonymy
ἐν τῷ ὀνόματί σου
in the name ˱of˲_you
The term name refers to Jesus’ power and authority. Alternate translation: “when we command them using the authority that you gave us”
10:1-20 The Lord now chose seventy-two: The mission of the Twelve (9:1-6) represented Jesus’ ministry to Israel; this mission represented his outreach to the Gentiles. The number 72 represents the nations of the world. Genesis 10 lists 70 nations in the Hebrew text, but the Septuagint—the Greek Old Testament—lists 72. Luke, who used the Septuagint, probably wrote 72, and then a later scribe “corrected” the text to agree with the Hebrew. The point is that the Good News is for both Jews and Gentiles.
OET (OET-LV) And the seventy two returned with joy saying:
master, even the demons is_being_subjected to_us in the name of_you.
OET (OET-RV) In time the seventy-two that had been sent out came back excited, saying, “Master, even the demons listened to us when we used your name and authority.”
Note: The OET-RV is still only a first draft, and so far only a few words have been (mostly automatically) matched to the Greek words that they’re translated from.
