OET (OET-LV) And no_one is_putting new wine into old wineskins, and if not surely the the new wine will_be_bursting the wineskins, and it will_be_being_poured_out, and the wineskins will_be_destroying it.
OET (OET-RV) Similarly, no one puts new wine to mature into old wineskins. If they did, the new wine would certainly burst the old wineskin and it would all pour out and the wineskin would be ruined as well.
Note 1 topic: translate-unknown
ἀσκοὺς
wineskins
These were bags made out of animal skins. They were used for holding wine. If your readers would not be familiar with wineskins, you could use a general expression. Alternate translation: “leather bags”
Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / hypo
εἰ δὲ μή γε
if and not surely
Jesus uses this expression once again to introduce a hypothetical situation that explains the reason why a person would not put new wine in an old wineskin. Alternate translation: “Suppose someone did do that”
Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit
ῥήξει ὁ οἶνος ὁ νέος τοὺς ἀσκούς
/will_be/_bursting the wine ¬the new the wineskins
When the new wine fermented and expanded, it would break the old skins because they could no longer stretch. Jesus’ audience would have understood this information about wine fermenting and expanding and about old leather losing its suppleness. If it would be helpful to your readers, you could state that explicitly. Alternate translation: “the new wine would burst the old wineskins because they would no longer be able to expand when the wine fermented”
Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / activepassive
αὐτὸς ἐκχυθήσεται
it /will_be_being/_poured_out
If it would be helpful in your language, you could express this with an active form. Alternate translation: “the wine would spill out of the bags”
Note 5 topic: figures-of-speech / activepassive
οἱ ἀσκοὶ ἀπολοῦνται
the wineskins /will_be/_destroying_‹it›
If it would be helpful in your language, you could express this with an active form. Alternate translation: “the leather bags would tear and become useless”
5:36-38 a new garment . . . new wine: New cloth shrinks when washed and so tears the old; new wine expands with fermentation and breaks brittle old wineskins. In either case, both old and new are ruined. Both illustrations make the point that the old is incompatible with the new. Jesus did not come to patch up the old covenant, but to establish a new one. The Kingdom of God brings a whole new orientation to thinking and living.
OET (OET-LV) And no_one is_putting new wine into old wineskins, and if not surely the the new wine will_be_bursting the wineskins, and it will_be_being_poured_out, and the wineskins will_be_destroying it.
OET (OET-RV) Similarly, no one puts new wine to mature into old wineskins. If they did, the new wine would certainly burst the old wineskin and it would all pour out and the wineskin would be ruined as well.
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.
