OET interlinear LUKE 17:36

uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: translate-textvariants

δύο ἐν ἀγρῷ εἰς παραληφθήσεται καὶ ὁ ἕτερος ἀφεθήσεται

(duo en agrōi eis paralaʸfthaʸsetai kai ho heteros afethaʸsetai)

See the discussion of textual issues at the end of the General Notes to this chapter to decide whether to include this verse in your translation. The notes below discuss translation issues in the verse, for those who decide to include it.

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / hypo

δύο ἐν ἀγρῷ

(duo en agrōi)

Jesus is speaking of a hypothetical situation that might occur at this time. It may be helpful to make this a separate sentence. Alternate translation: “Suppose that when this happens, two people are out working in a field”

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / activepassive

εἰς παραληφθήσεται καὶ ὁ ἕτερος ἀφεθήσεται

(eis paralaʸfthaʸsetai kai ho heteros afethaʸsetai)

If it would be helpful in your language, you could use active forms for both of these verbs, and you could state who would do the actions. See how you decided to translate this in 17:34. Alternate translation: “God will spare one of them but destroy the other” or “God will destroy one of them but spare the other”

Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / hypo

εἰς παραληφθήσεται

(eis paralaʸfthaʸsetai)

If you translated the beginning of this verse as the condition of a hypothetical situation, translate this as the result of that condition, as a separate sentence. Alternate translation: “Then one of them will be taken”
