OET interlinear LUKE 6:29

uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / hypo

τῷ τύπτοντί σε ἐπὶ τὴν σιαγόνα, πάρεχε καὶ τὴν ἄλλην

(Some words not found in SR-GNT: Τῷ τύπτοντι σέ ἐπί τήν σιαγόνα πάρεχε καί τήν ἄλλην καί ἀπό τοῦ αἴροντος σοῦ τό ἱμάτιον καί τόν χιτῶνα μή κωλύσῃς)

Jesus is using a hypothetical situation to teach. Alternate translation: [Suppose someone hits you on one side of your face. Then turn your face so that he could also strike the other side]

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / youcrowd

σε & σου

(Some words not found in SR-GNT: Τῷ τύπτοντι σέ ἐπί τήν σιαγόνα πάρεχε καί τήν ἄλλην καί ἀπό τοῦ αἴροντος σοῦ τό ἱμάτιον καί τόν χιτῶνα μή κωλύσῃς)

Even though Jesus is still speaking to his disciples and the crowd, he is now addressing an individual situation, so you and your are singular in this verse. But if the singular forms of these pronouns would not be natural in your language for someone who was speaking to a group of people, you could use the plural forms in your translation.

ἐπὶ τὴν σιαγόνα

(Some words not found in SR-GNT: Τῷ τύπτοντι σέ ἐπί τήν σιαγόνα πάρεχε καί τήν ἄλλην καί ἀπό τοῦ αἴροντος σοῦ τό ἱμάτιον καί τόν χιτῶνα μή κωλύσῃς)

Alternate translation: [on one side of your face]

It may be helpful to state the implicit purpose of this action. Alternate translation: [turn your face so that he could also strike the other side, to show that you do not want to fight and you are not resisting]

Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / hypo

ἀπὸ τοῦ αἴροντός σου τὸ ἱμάτιον, καὶ τὸν χιτῶνα μὴ κωλύσῃς

(Some words not found in SR-GNT: Τῷ τύπτοντι σέ ἐπί τήν σιαγόνα πάρεχε καί τήν ἄλλην καί ἀπό τοῦ αἴροντος σοῦ τό ἱμάτιον καί τόν χιτῶνα μή κωλύσῃς)

Jesus is using another hypothetical situation to teach. Alternate translation: [suppose someone takes away your cloak. Then give him your tunic as well]

Note 5 topic: figures-of-speech / litotes

καὶ τὸν χιτῶνα μὴ κωλύσῃς

(Some words not found in SR-GNT: Τῷ τύπτοντι σέ ἐπί τήν σιαγόνα πάρεχε καί τήν ἄλλην καί ἀπό τοῦ αἴροντος σοῦ τό ἱμάτιον καί τόν χιτῶνα μή κωλύσῃς)

Here Jesus uses a figure of speech that expresses a positive meaning by using a negative word together with a word that is the opposite of the intended meaning. Alternate translation: [give him your tunic as well]
