OET interlinear MAT 13:6

uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / idiom

ἡλίου & ἀνατείλαντος

/the/_sun & /having/_risen

Here, the phrase the sun had risen refers to the sun coming up over the horizon in the morning. If it would be helpful in your language, you could use a comparable phrase or state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: [when the sun came up] or [in the morning when the sun began to shine]

ἐκαυματίσθη καὶ διὰ τὸ μὴ ἔχειν ῥίζαν ἐξηράνθη

˱it˲_/was/_scorched and because_of that not /to_be/_having root ˱it˲_/was/_withered

Here, much as in 13:5, Jesus refers to the plants that sprouted from the seeds by using singular words. If it would be helpful in your language, you could use plural words to refer to these plants. Alternate translation: [they were scorched, and because they had no roots, they withered]

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / activepassive

ἐκαυματίσθη

˱it˲_/was/_scorched

If your language does not use this passive form, you could express the idea in active form or in another way that is natural in your language. If you need to say who did the action, it is clear from the context that it was the sun. Alternate translation: [the sun scorched it]

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / hyperbole

τὸ μὴ ἔχειν ῥίζαν

that not /to_be/_having root

Jesus says no root here as a generalization for emphasis. If it would be helpful in your language, you could use a different way to express the emphasis. Alternate translation: [it had almost no root] or [it had very small roots]
