OET (OET-LV) If anyone is_coming to me, and is_ not _hating the father of_himself, and the mother, and the wife, and the children, and the brothers, and the sisters, and still also the life of_himself, is_ not _able to_be an_apprentice/follower of_me.

OET (OET-RV) “If anyone comes to me but doesn’t love me more than they love their parents and their siblings, and their spouse and children, and even their own life, then that person is unable to become my apprentice.

SIL Open Translator’s Notes:

Section 14:25–35: A disciple of Jesus must be ready to suffer for him

In the previous section, Jesus warned people about the danger of rejecting God’s invitation to join his kingdom. In this section he told them two parables to advise them that they should not underestimate the suffering and difficulties which they would face if they decided to truly be his disciples.

Some other possible headings for this section are:

The Cost of Being a Disciple (NIV)

Do not underestimate the hardship of being a disciple

14:26a

“If anyone comes to Me

If anyone comes to Me: It is implied from 14:26d that the person comes to Jesus in order to follow him or to become his disciple. In some languages it may be more natural to make this information explicit here. For example:

If a person comes to me to be my disciple

anyone: Jesus was speaking here to anyone in the crowd. In this context, English can use a wide range of nouns or pronouns. For example:

a person

people (GW)

Those (GNT)

you (NLT)

Use a natural way in your language to address any individual in a crowd.

14:26b

and does not hate his father and mother and wife and children and brothers and sisters—

and does not hate: This verse part gives the condition that a person must fulfill in order to become Jesus’ disciple. In many languages it will be more natural to state this condition in a separate clause as a requirement. For example:

he must hate

hate: The word hate is used here as a figure of speech in which hatred means “a lesser degree of love.” When Jesus said that a person must hate his father and mother, he did not mean that a person must literally hate his parents. He meant that a person must love his father and mother less than he loved Jesus. He must love Jesus more than he loved his father and mother. See the parallel verse in Matthew 10:37.

In some languages a strong word such as “hate” will express the right meaning very dramatically. In other languages, a literal translation will express the wrong meaning. Jesus did not literally mean that anyone should “hate” his family. Some translation options to avoid that wrong meaning are:

his father and mother and wife and children and brothers and sisters: Languages express these terms in different ways. In some languages it may be more natural to say “his parents, his spouse and children, his siblings.” Use terms that are natural in your language.

14:26c

yes, even his own life—

yes, even his own life: The Greek words that the BSB translates as yes, even are literally “and also in-addition.” These words emphasize the phrase his own life. It was startling enough for Jesus to say that a person had to hate his own relatives. It was even more startling that a person needed to hate his own life. He needed to love Jesus more than he loved himself and be willing to die for Jesus if necessary.

The BSB uses long dashes at the beginning and end of this phrase to indicate this emphasis. You do not need to use dashes unless it is natural in your language. Another way to emphasize this last item in the series is to start a new sentence. For example:

In fact, he must hate even his own life. Otherwise, he cannot be…

14:26d

he cannot be My disciple.

he cannot be My disciple: If you stated 14:26b as a requirement “he must hate,” you will need to connect 14:26d in a different way. For example:

Otherwise, you cannot be my disciple

If you do not do this, you cannot be my follower

disciple: For help in translating the word disciple, see the note at 9:14b.

General Comment on 14:26a–d

In some languages it may be helpful to reorder the clauses in this verse. For example:

26aNo one who comes to me 26dcan be my disciple 26bif he does not hate his father and mother, his wife and children, his brothers and sisters—26cyes, even his own life.

It is also possible to follow this order but translate the figurative meaning of “hate”:

26aThose who come to me 26dcannot be my disciples 26bunless they love me more than they love father and mother, wife and children, brothers and sisters, 26cand themselves as well. (GNT)

uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / idiom

εἴ τις ἔρχεται πρός με,

(Some words not found in SR-GNT: Εἰ τὶς ἔρχεται πρός μέ καί οὒ μισεῖ τόν πατέρα ἑαυτοῦ καί τήν μητέρα καί τήν γυναῖκα καί τά τέκνα καί τούς ἀδελφούς καί τάς ἀδελφάς ἔτι δέ καί τήν ψυχήν ἑαυτοῦ οὒ δύναται μού εἶναι μαθητής)

This is an idiom. Alternate translation: [If anyone wants to be my disciple]

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / doublenegatives

εἴ τις & οὐ μισεῖ & οὐ δύναται εἶναί μου μαθητής

(Some words not found in SR-GNT: Εἰ τὶς ἔρχεται πρός μέ καί οὒ μισεῖ τόν πατέρα ἑαυτοῦ καί τήν μητέρα καί τήν γυναῖκα καί τά τέκνα καί τούς ἀδελφούς καί τάς ἀδελφάς ἔτι δέ καί τήν ψυχήν ἑαυτοῦ οὒ δύναται μού εἶναι μαθητής)

If it would be helpful in your language, you could translate this double negative as a positive statement. Alternate translation: [Only someone who … loves me more than … is able to be my disciple]

Note 3 topic: grammar-connect-logic-contrast

καὶ

(Some words not found in SR-GNT: Εἰ τὶς ἔρχεται πρός μέ καί οὒ μισεῖ τόν πατέρα ἑαυτοῦ καί τήν μητέρα καί τήν γυναῖκα καί τά τέκνα καί τούς ἀδελφούς καί τάς ἀδελφάς ἔτι δέ καί τήν ψυχήν ἑαυτοῦ οὒ δύναται μού εἶναι μαθητής)

Jesus uses the word and to introduce a contrast. Alternate translation: [but]

Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / hyperbole

οὐ μισεῖ

(Some words not found in SR-GNT: Εἰ τὶς ἔρχεται πρός μέ καί οὒ μισεῖ τόν πατέρα ἑαυτοῦ καί τήν μητέρα καί τήν γυναῖκα καί τά τέκνα καί τούς ἀδελφούς καί τάς ἀδελφάς ἔτι δέ καί τήν ψυχήν ἑαυτοῦ οὒ δύναται μού εἶναι μαθητής)

Jesus is using the word hate as an exaggeration to say that his disciples are not to love other people and themselves more than they love Jesus. Alternate translation: [does not love me more than]

OET (OET-LV) If anyone is_coming to me, and is_ not _hating the father of_himself, and the mother, and the wife, and the children, and the brothers, and the sisters, and still also the life of_himself, is_ not _able to_be an_apprentice/follower of_me.

OET (OET-RV) “If anyone comes to me but doesn’t love me more than they love their parents and their siblings, and their spouse and children, and even their own life, then that person is unable to become my apprentice.

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.
