OET interlinear MAT 26:35

uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: translate-tense

λέγει

˓is˒_saying

To call attention to a development in the story, Matthew uses the present tense in past narration. If it would not be natural to do that in your language, you could use the past tense in your translation. Alternate translation: [said]

Note 2 topic: grammar-connect-condition-hypothetical

κἂν δέῃ με σὺν σοὶ ἀποθανεῖν

(Some words not found in SR-GNT: λέγει αὐτῷ Ὁ Πέτρος Κἄν δέῃ μέ σύν σοί ἀποθανεῖν οὒ μή σέ ἀπαρνήσομαι ὁμοίως καί Πάντες οἱ μαθηταί εἶπον)

Peter is suggesting that this is a hypothetical condition, that it might be necessary to die with Jesus. Use a natural form in your language for introducing a situation that could happen. Alternate translation: [Even were it necessary for me to die with you]

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit

κἂν δέῃ με σὺν σοὶ ἀποθανεῖν

(Some words not found in SR-GNT: λέγει αὐτῷ Ὁ Πέτρος Κἄν δέῃ μέ σύν σοί ἀποθανεῖν οὒ μή σέ ἀπαρνήσομαι ὁμοίως καί Πάντες οἱ μαθηταί εἶπον)

Peter means that if it were necessary for him to die if he remained faithful to Jesus, he would rather do that than deny him. You could include this information if that would be helpful to your readers. Alternate translation: [Even if it were necessary for me, to keep from denying you, to die with you] or [Even if I would have to die with you if I stayed with you]

Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / yousingular

σοὶ & σε

(Some words not found in SR-GNT: λέγει αὐτῷ Ὁ Πέτρος Κἄν δέῃ μέ σύν σοί ἀποθανεῖν οὒ μή σέ ἀπαρνήσομαι ὁμοίως καί Πάντες οἱ μαθηταί εἶπον)

Since Peter is talking to Jesus, the word you throughout this verse is singular.
