OET interlinear MAT 15:28

uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit

ὦ γύναι

(Some words not found in SR-GNT: Τότε ἀποκριθείς ὁ Ἰησοῦς εἶπεν αὐτῇ Ὦ γύναι μεγάλη σοῦ ἡ πίστις γενηθήτω σοί ὡς θέλεις Καί ἰάθη ἡ θυγάτηρ αὐτῆς ἀπό τῆς ὥρας ἐκείνης)

Here Jesus uses the phrase O woman to address the Canaanite woman. This phrase was a polite way to refer to someone, and Jesus uses it to show how impressed he is with what the woman said. If it would be helpful in your language, you could use a form that refers politely to a woman who has a daughter. Alternate translation: [My dear woman] or [My lady]

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / abstractnouns

μεγάλη σου ἡ πίστις

great_‹is› (Some words not found in SR-GNT: Τότε ἀποκριθείς ὁ Ἰησοῦς εἶπεν αὐτῇ Ὦ γύναι μεγάλη σοῦ ἡ πίστις γενηθήτω σοί ὡς θέλεις Καί ἰάθη ἡ θυγάτηρ αὐτῆς ἀπό τῆς ὥρας ἐκείνης)

If your language does not use an abstract noun for the idea of faith, you could express the same idea in another way. Alternate translation: [you have believed greatly]

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / yousingular

σου & σοι & θέλεις

(Some words not found in SR-GNT: Τότε ἀποκριθείς ὁ Ἰησοῦς εἶπεν αὐτῇ Ὦ γύναι μεγάλη σοῦ ἡ πίστις γενηθήτω σοί ὡς θέλεις Καί ἰάθη ἡ θυγάτηρ αὐτῆς ἀπό τῆς ὥρας ἐκείνης)

Here, the words your, you, and you are singular because Jesus is speaking to the woman.

Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / imperative3p

γενηθήτω

˱it˲_˓let_be˒_become

If your language does not use the third-person imperative in this way, you could state this in another way that is natural in your language. Alternate translation: [It will be done] or [I am doing it]

Note 5 topic: figures-of-speech / activepassive

γενηθήτω

˱it˲_˓let_be˒_become

If your language does not use the passive form in this way, you can state this in active form or in another way that is natural in your language. Alternate translation: [let it happen] or [let God do it]

Note 6 topic: figures-of-speech / activepassive

ἰάθη ἡ θυγάτηρ αὐτῆς

˓was˒_healed the daughter ˱of˲_her

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 Jesus. Alternate translation: [Jesus healed her daughter]

Note 7 topic: figures-of-speech / idiom

ἀπὸ τῆς ὥρας ἐκείνης

(Some words not found in SR-GNT: Τότε ἀποκριθείς ὁ Ἰησοῦς εἶπεν αὐτῇ Ὦ γύναι μεγάλη σοῦ ἡ πίστις γενηθήτω σοί ὡς θέλεις Καί ἰάθη ἡ θυγάτηρ αὐτῆς ἀπό τῆς ὥρας ἐκείνης)

Here, the phrase from that hour indicates that the woman’s daughter was healed at the time when Jesus said those words. If it would be helpful in your language, you could use a comparable expression or state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: [right then] or [at that time]
