OET (OET-RV) That slave will be rewarded if the master finds him working faithful when he arrives suddenly.
Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / activepassive
μακάριος
blessed_‹is›
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 God. Alternate translation: [God will bless]
Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit
ἐλθὼν
/having/_come
Here Jesus implies that the master comes back from a trip or absence. If it would be helpful in your language, you could make that idea more explicit. Alternate translation: [having come back]
Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit
οὕτως ποιοῦντα
thus doing
Here, the word thus refers to giving food to the rest of the household at the appropriate times (see 24:45). If it would be helpful in your language, you could make that idea more explicit. Alternate translation: [doing that task] or [giving food to the household at the proper times]
24:45-51 This parable and the three that follow (25:1-13, 14-30, 31-46) each dramatize the need for faithful obedience during the delay of Jesus’ second coming.
OET (OET-LV) Blessed is the that slave, whom the master of_him having_come will_be_finding doing thus.
OET (OET-RV) That slave will be rewarded if the master finds him working faithful when he arrives suddenly.
Note: The OET-RV is still only a first draft, and so far only a few words have been (mostly automatically) matched to the Hebrew or Greek words that they’re translated from.
