OET (OET-LV) the Petros is_saying to_him From the strangers.
And he_having_said:
From the strangers, the Yaʸsous was_saying to_him:
Consequently surely the_free ones are the sons.

OET (OET-RV) “From strangers,” answered Peter.
¶ “So surely the children are exempt?”, Yeshua responded,

SIL Open Translator’s Notes:

Section 17:24–27: Jesus taught about the temple tax

In this section, Jesus taught Peter an important lesson about his relationship to his heavenly father. He used a question about paying the temple tax to show Peter that both he and Jesus were sons of the Father. That meant that they really did not need to pay this tax. But Jesus did not want to offend people over this issue. So he did a miracle to provide the money to pay the tax.

Here are some other possible headings for this section:

Jesus Talks About Paying Taxes (NCV)

Payment of the Temple Tax (NLT)

The Temple Tax (NET)

17:26a

“From others,” Peter answered.

From others: Some words from 17:25d are implied here but not repeated. The complete sentence would be:

They take/collect taxes from others.

17:26b

“Then the sons are exempt,” Jesus declared.

Then: The Greek phrase that the BSB translates as Then includes a word that is used for emphasis. The phrase could also be translated as “Surely then.” Jesus’ response is a necessary conclusion to Peter’s answer. If you can, find a way to put emphasis on this conclusion. For example:

Then indeed

Jesus’ answer indicates that Peter answered correctly. In some languages, it may be necessary to make that explicit. For example:

That’s right/correct. So

That is true. Therefore

the sons: The phrase the sons refers to the same people as in 17:25d. You should translate it in the same way. For example:

the family members (GW)

are exempt: The Greek word that the BSB translates as are exempt means “are free.” The sons of the king do not pay any sort of taxes.

Here are some other ways to translate this word:

are not required to pay (CEV)

don’t have to pay taxes (NCV)

uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: grammar-connect-words-phrases

δέ

(Some words not found in SR-GNT: λέγει αὐτῷ ὁ Πέτρος Ἀπό τῶν ἀλλοτρίων εἰπόντος Δέ Ἀπό τῶν ἀλλοτρίων ἔφη αὐτῷ ὁ Ἰησοῦς Ἄρα γέ ἐλευθεροῖ εἰσίν οἱ υἱοί)

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 / explicit

εἰπόντος

˱he˲_˓having˒_said

Matthew implies that Peter is the one speaking. You could include this information if that would be helpful to your readers. Alternate translation: [when Peter said]

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit

τῶν ἀλλοτρίων & οἱ υἱοί

the strangers & the sons

Here, just as in [17:25](../17/25.md), the words strangers and sons could be referring to: (1) people over whom kings rule as opposed to their own children. Alternate translation: [other people … the families] (2) conquered people as opposed to citizens of the kingdom. Alternate translation: [people they have conquered … the citizens]

Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit

ἄρα γε ἐλεύθεροί εἰσιν οἱ υἱοί

(Some words not found in SR-GNT: λέγει αὐτῷ ὁ Πέτρος Ἀπό τῶν ἀλλοτρίων εἰπόντος Δέ Ἀπό τῶν ἀλλοτρίων ἔφη αὐτῷ ὁ Ἰησοῦς Ἄρα γέ ἐλευθεροῖ εἰσίν οἱ υἱοί)

Here Jesus implies that he agrees with Peter’s answer. You could include this information if that would be helpful to your readers. Alternate translation: [You are correct, and so the sons are free]

Note 5 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit

ἐλεύθεροί εἰσιν οἱ υἱοί

(Some words not found in SR-GNT: λέγει αὐτῷ ὁ Πέτρος Ἀπό τῶν ἀλλοτρίων εἰπόντος Δέ Ἀπό τῶν ἀλλοτρίων ἔφη αὐτῷ ὁ Ἰησοῦς Ἄρα γέ ἐλευθεροῖ εἰσίν οἱ υἱοί)

Here Jesus implies that he and Peter are like sons and so do not have to pay the tax. You could include this information if that would be helpful to your readers. Alternate translation: [the sons are free, and we are like those sons] or [the sons are free, which means that you and I also do not have to pay]
