OET (OET-LV) as he_spoke to the fathers of_us, to_ the _Abraʼam/(ʼAⱱrāhām) and to_the descendants of_him, because/for the age.
Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / metaphor
καθὼς ἐλάλησεν πρὸς τοὺς πατέρας ἡμῶν
as ˱he˲_spoke to the fathers ˱of˲_us
Here, the word fathers means “ancestors.” Alternate translation: “just as he promised to our ancestors”
Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / metaphor
τῷ σπέρματι αὐτοῦ
¬the ˱to˲_the descendants ˱of˲_him
The term seed means “offspring.” It is a word picture. Just as plants produce seeds that grow into many more plants, so people can have many offspring. Alternate translation: “to his descendants”
Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / idiom
εἰς τὸν αἰῶνα
for the age
This is an idiom. See how you translated the similar expression in 1:33. Alternate translation: “forever”
1:46-55 Mary’s song is the first of three songs of praise in the birth narrative. It is called the Magnificat (“magnifies”), from the first word in the Latin translation. The song has many parallels to Hannah’s prayer in 1 Sam 2:1-10. The fact that God cares for the oppressed and reverses their fortunes is a common theme throughout Luke’s Gospel. The coming of God’s Kingdom brings salvation to rejected and outcast people.
OET (OET-LV) as he_spoke to the fathers of_us, to_ the _Abraʼam/(ʼAⱱrāhām) and to_the descendants of_him, because/for the age.
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.
