Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / parallelism
ἀνεῴχθη & τὸ στόμα αὐτοῦ & καὶ ἡ γλῶσσα αὐτοῦ
/was/_opened_up & the mouth ˱of˲_him & and the tongue ˱of˲_him
These two phrases mean the same thing. Luke uses them together for emphasis. If it would be helpful in your language, you could combine these phrases. Alternate translation: “he became able to speak once again”
Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / metonymy
ἀνεῴχθη & τὸ στόμα αὐτοῦ & καὶ ἡ γλῶσσα αὐτοῦ
/was/_opened_up & the mouth ˱of˲_him & and the tongue ˱of˲_him
Each of these phrases describes the act of speaking by referring to something associated with speech coming into action, specifically, the mouth opening and the tongue moving about freely. Alternate translation: “he became able to talk once again”
Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / activepassive
ἀνεῴχθη & τὸ στόμα αὐτοῦ & καὶ ἡ γλῶσσα αὐτοῦ
/was/_opened_up & the mouth ˱of˲_him & and the tongue ˱of˲_him
If it would be helpful in your language, you could express this with an active form. You could also say who did the action. Alternate translation: “he became able to talk once again” or “God enabled him to speak once again” or, if you want to use the figurative language, “God opened his mouth and freed his tongue”
OET (OET-LV) And the mouth of_him was_opened_up immediately, and the tongue of_him, and he_was_speaking blessing the god.
OET (OET-RV) and then suddenly his mouth and tongue were freed and he was able to speak again and started praising God.
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.
