OET interlinear LUKE 7:22

uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / hendiadys

ἀποκριθεὶς εἶπεν αὐτοῖς

answering ˱he˲_said ˱to˲_them

Together the words answering and said mean that after healing and delivering many people, Jesus responded to the question that John’s messengers had asked him. Alternate translation: [Jesus responded to the messengers whom John had sent]

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / youdual

πορευθέντες & εἴδετε

˓having_been˒_gone & ˱you_all˲_saw

Since Jesus is speaking to two men, you would be dual, if your language uses that form. Otherwise, the word would be plural.

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / activepassive

λεπροὶ καθαρίζονται & νεκροὶ ἐγείρονται, πτωχοὶ εὐαγγελίζονται

lepers ˓are_being˒_cleansed & dead ˓are_being˒_raised poor ˓are_being˒_gospel_preached

If it would be helpful in your language, you could express all of these things with active forms. Alternate translation: [people who had leprosy no longer have that disease … people who were dead are coming back to life, poor people are hearing the good news]

Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit

λεπροὶ καθαρίζονται

lepers ˓are_being˒_cleansed

As in [5:12](../05/12.md), since the lepers were unclean because of their leprosy, the implication is that Jesus healed them from the disease. If it would be helpful to your readers, you could state that explicitly. Alternate translation: [people who had leprosy no longer have that disease]

Note 5 topic: figures-of-speech / nominaladj

κωφοὶ & νεκροὶ & πτωχοὶ

deaf & dead & poor

Luke is using these adjectives as nouns. If your language does not use adjectives that way, you can translate them with noun phrases. Alternate translation: [people who were deaf … people who were dead … poor people]
