uW Translation Notes:

ταῦτα ἃ θεωρεῖτε

(Some words not found in SR-GNT: Ταῦτα ἅ θεωρεῖτε ἐλεύσονται ἡμέραι ἐν αἷς οὐκ ἀφεθήσεται λίθος ἐπί λίθῳ ὧδε ὅς οὒ καταλυθήσεται)

Alternate translation: [As for this beautiful temple and its decorations]

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / idiom

ἐλεύσονται ἡμέραι ἐν αἷς

˓will_be˒_coming days in which

Here Jesus is using the term days to refer to a specific time. Alternate translation: [there will be a time when]

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / activepassive

οὐκ ἀφεθήσεται λίθος ἐπὶ λίθῳ

not ˓will_be_being˒_left stone (Some words not found in SR-GNT: Ταῦτα ἅ θεωρεῖτε ἐλεύσονται ἡμέραι ἐν αἷς οὐκ ἀφεθήσεται λίθος ἐπί λίθῳ ὧδε ὅς οὒ καταλυθήσεται)

If it would be helpful in your language, you could express this with an active form, and you could state who will do the action. Alternate translation: [your enemies will not leave one stone upon another]

οὐκ ἀφεθήσεται λίθος ἐπὶ λίθῳ

not ˓will_be_being˒_left stone (Some words not found in SR-GNT: Ταῦτα ἅ θεωρεῖτε ἐλεύσονται ἡμέραι ἐν αἷς οὐκ ἀφεθήσεται λίθος ἐπί λίθῳ ὧδε ὅς οὒ καταλυθήσεται)

If it would be helpful in your language, you could make this statement in positive form. Alternate translation: [your enemies will topple every stone off the stone it is resting on]

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / hyperbole

οὐκ ἀφεθήσεται λίθος ἐπὶ λίθῳ

not ˓will_be_being˒_left stone (Some words not found in SR-GNT: Ταῦτα ἅ θεωρεῖτε ἐλεύσονται ἡμέραι ἐν αἷς οὐκ ἀφεθήσεται λίθος ἐπί λίθῳ ὧδε ὅς οὒ καταλυθήσεται)

See how you translated the similar expression “they will not leave stone upon stone” in [19:44](../19/44.md). Here as well this is a figurative overstatement to emphasize how completely the enemies of the Jews will destroy the temple. Alternate translation: [your enemies will completely destroy this building of stone]

ὃς οὐ καταλυθήσεται

(Some words not found in SR-GNT: Ταῦτα ἅ θεωρεῖτε ἐλεύσονται ἡμέραι ἐν αἷς οὐκ ἀφεθήσεται λίθος ἐπί λίθῳ ὧδε ὅς οὒ καταλυθήσεται)

If it would be helpful in your language, you could make this statement in positive form and make it a separate sentence. Alternate translation: [Every stone will be torn down]

Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / activepassive

ὃς οὐ καταλυθήσεται

(Some words not found in SR-GNT: Ταῦτα ἅ θεωρεῖτε ἐλεύσονται ἡμέραι ἐν αἷς οὐκ ἀφεθήσεται λίθος ἐπί λίθῳ ὧδε ὅς οὒ καταλυθήσεται)

If it would be helpful in your language, you could express this as a separate sentence with an active form, and you could state who will do the action. (In the alternate translation that is suggested here, “they” would mean “your enemies,” and “it” would mean “this building of stone,” as in the alternate translation in the last note to the previous phrase in this verse.) Alternate translation: [They will tear it all down]
