OET (OET-LV) And the to_Elisabet was_fulfilled the time, which her to_bear, and she_bore a_son.

OET (OET-RV) When Elizabeth’s nine months were up, she gave birth and produced a son

SIL Open Translator’s Notes:

Section 1:57–66: John the Baptizer was born and received his name

In this section, Elizabeth gave birth to a son, and she and his father gave him the name John. John received this name at the time when he was circumcised. He was the one who was later called John the Baptizer.

It was Jewish custom to circumcise a baby boy one week after his birth. The circumcision commonly took place at the family’s home. The father or a man who specialized in doing circumcision would cut off the skin at the end of the baby’s penis. This was a sign in each boy’s body that he was part of Israel and included in the covenant that God had made with Israel. Neighbors and relatives joined in the celebration.

God had shown his power in causing Elizabeth to become pregnant when she was old and had been unable to have children. When the baby was circumcised, God again showed his power by restoring Zechariah’s ability to speak. The unusual events in connection with John’s birth were told throughout the hill country of Judah. As a result, people thought about these things and felt awe and fear to see God working in that powerful way among them.

Some other possible headings for this section are:

Elizabeth gave birth to John

Elizabeth gave birth to a baby who was circumcised and named John

The birth and circumcision of John the Baptizer

1:57

When the time came for Elizabeth to have her child, she gave birth to a son.

When the time came for Elizabeth to have her child, she gave birth to a son: This verse indicates that Elizabeth’s pregnancy ended and she gave birth to a son. Use a natural way in your language to express this. In some languages you may use an idiomatic expression.

When In Greek, this part of the verse begins with a conjunction that the BSB translates as When. This makes 1:57a a time clause. Many English versions translate this conjunction as “Now,” so that 1:57a introduces the next event. Translate it in a natural way in your language. In some languages a conjunction may not be needed.

uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: grammar-connect-time-sequential

δὲ

(Some words not found in SR-GNT: τῇ Δέ Ἐλισάβετ ἐπλήσθη ὁ χρόνος τοῦ τεκεῖν αὐτήν καί ἐγέννησεν υἱόν)

Luke uses the word And to indicate that this event took place after the events he has just described. Alternate translation: [Then]

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / activepassive

ἐπλήσθη ὁ χρόνος

˓was˒_fulfilled the time

If it would be helpful in your language, you could express this with an active form. Alternate translation: [the time came]

τοῦ τεκεῖν αὐτήν

¬which ˓to˒_bear her

Your language may require you to state the object of deliver. Alternate translation: [for her to deliver her baby] or [for her to have her baby]
