SIL Open Translator’s Notes:

Section 10:5–42: Jesus instructed the twelve apostles

In this section, Jesus gave various instructions to the twelve apostles. In 10:5–15, he gave them some practical instructions for preaching the good news. In 10:16–33, he described the opposition that they would see when they went out. Lastly, in 10:34–42, he described the commitment required to be a disciple and the reward for being a disciple.

You may want to break this long section into several shorter sections. Here is an example:

Section 10:5–15

The things the apostles should/must do when sent

Section 10:16–33

The difficulties the apostles will face

Section 10:34–42

The cost and reward of following Jesus

Here are some other possible headings for this section:

Here are some other ways to translate this clause:

Those who declare publicly that they belong to me (GNT)

If you tell others that you belong to me (CEV)

All those who stand before others and say they believe in me (NCV)

men: The Greek word that the BSB translates men is general and refers to people.

Here are some other ways to translate this:

others

10:32b

I will also confess him before My Father in heaven.

I will also confess him: This clause refers to Jesus declaring that the person of 10:32a is his true follower. He belongs in heaven.

Here are some other ways to translate this clause:

I will do the same for them (GNT)

I will tell my Father in heaven that you are my followers. (CEV)

I will say before my Father in heaven that they belong to me. (NCV)

before: In this context, the word before refers to being physically in front of God.

Here are some other ways to translate this word:

in the presence of (NJB)

in front of (GW)

My Father in heaven: This phrase refers to God.

Here are some other ways to translate this phrase:

οὖν

(Some words not found in SR-GNT: πᾶς Οὖν ὅστις ὁμολογήσει ἐν ἐμοί ἔμπροσθεν τῶν ἀνθρώπων ὁμολογήσω κἀγώ ἐν αὐτῷ ἔμπροσθεν τοῦ Πατρός μού τοῦ ἐν οὐρανοῖς)

The word Therefore introduces a conclusion based on what Jesus has said about persecution and following him. If it would be helpful in your language, you could use a word or phrase that introduces a conclusion, or you could leave Therefore untranslated. Alternate translation: [In conclusion] or [In the end]

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit

ὁμολογήσει ἐν ἐμοὶ ἔμπροσθεν τῶν ἀνθρώπων

˓will_be˒_confessing in (Some words not found in SR-GNT: πᾶς Οὖν ὅστις ὁμολογήσει ἐν ἐμοί ἔμπροσθεν τῶν ἀνθρώπων ὁμολογήσω κἀγώ ἐν αὐτῷ ἔμπροσθεν τοῦ Πατρός μού τοῦ ἐν οὐρανοῖς)

Jesus implies that the people confess that they follow Jesus. If it would be helpful in your language, you could make that idea more explicit. Alternate translation: [will confess before men that they follow me] or [will confess before men that they believe in me]

(Occurrence -1) ἔμπροσθεν

(Some words not found in SR-GNT: πᾶς Οὖν ὅστις ὁμολογήσει ἐν ἐμοί ἔμπροσθεν τῶν ἀνθρώπων ὁμολογήσω κἀγώ ἐν αὐτῷ ἔμπροσθεν τοῦ Πατρός μού τοῦ ἐν οὐρανοῖς)

Alternate translation: [in the presence of … in the presence of]

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / gendernotations

τῶν ἀνθρώπων

¬the people

Although the term men is masculine, Jesus is using the word here in a generic sense that includes both men and women. If it would be helpful in your language, you could use a phrase that makes this clear. Alternate translation: [humans]

Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit

ὁμολογήσω κἀγὼ ἐν αὐτῷ ἔμπροσθεν τοῦ Πατρός μου & ἐν οὐρανοῖς

˓will_be˒_confessing (Some words not found in SR-GNT: πᾶς Οὖν ὅστις ὁμολογήσει ἐν ἐμοί ἔμπροσθεν τῶν ἀνθρώπων ὁμολογήσω κἀγώ ἐν αὐτῷ ἔμπροσθεν τοῦ Πατρός μού τοῦ ἐν οὐρανοῖς)

Jesus implies that he will confess that these people truly do follow him. If it would be helpful in your language, you could make that idea more explicit. Alternate translation: [I will also confess before my Father in the heavens that he follows me] or [I will also confess before my Father in the heavens that he believes in me]

Note 5 topic: figures-of-speech / gendernotations

αὐτῷ

him

Although the term him is masculine, Jesus is using the word in a generic sense that includes both men and women. If it would be helpful in your language, you could use a phrase that makes this clear. Alternate translation: [him or her]

Note 6 topic: guidelines-sonofgodprinciples

τοῦ Πατρός μου

the Father who_‹is› (Some words not found in SR-GNT: πᾶς Οὖν ὅστις ὁμολογήσει ἐν ἐμοί ἔμπροσθεν τῶν ἀνθρώπων ὁμολογήσω κἀγώ ἐν αὐτῷ ἔμπροσθεν τοῦ Πατρός μού τοῦ ἐν οὐρανοῖς)

Father is an important title that describes the relationship between God the Father and Jesus the Son.

Note 7 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit

ἐν οὐρανοῖς

in in in ˓the˒_heavens

The phrase in the heavens identifies the location in which God the Father is specially present and from which he rules. You could include this information if that would be helpful to your readers. Alternate translation: [who is in the heavens]
