OET interlinear MAT 16:8

uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: grammar-connect-words-phrases

δὲ

(Some words not found in SR-GNT: γνούς Δέ ὁ Ἰησοῦς εἶπεν Τί διαλογίζεσθε ἐν ἑαυτοῖς ὀλιγόπιστοι ὅτι ἄρτους οὐκ ἔχετε)

Here, the word But introduces the next thing that happened. If it would be helpful in your language, you could use a word or phrase that introduces the next event, or you could leave But untranslated. Alternate translation: [Then]

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / rquestion

τί διαλογίζεσθε ἐν ἑαυτοῖς, ὀλιγόπιστοι, ὅτι ἄρτους οὐκ ἔχετε?

(Some words not found in SR-GNT: γνούς Δέ ὁ Ἰησοῦς εἶπεν Τί διαλογίζεσθε ἐν ἑαυτοῖς ὀλιγόπιστοι ὅτι ἄρτους οὐκ ἔχετε)

Jesus is using the question form to rebuke the disciples. If you would not use the question form for this purpose in your language, you could translate this as a statement or an exclamation. Alternate translation: [You of little faith! Do not reason among yourselves that you do not have loaves!] or [You of little faith, it is wrong for you to be reasoning among yourselves that you do not have loaves.]

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / abstractnouns

ὀλιγόπιστοι

little_faith_‹ones›

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 who believe so little]

Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit

ἐν ἑαυτοῖς

among yourselves

Here, much as in [16:7](../16/07.md), the phrase among yourselves could mean: (1) that the disciples were reasoning with each other. Alternate translation: [with one another] (2) that the disciples were thinking this without saying it. Alternate translation: [within yourselves]
