OET interlinear MAT 26:36

uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: translate-tense

ἔρχεται & λέγει

˓is˒_coming & ˱he˲_˓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: [came … said]

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / go

ἔρχεται

˓is˒_coming

In a context such as this, your language might say “goes” instead of comes. Alternate translation: [goes]

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / activepassive

λεγόμενον Γεθσημανεὶ

˓being˒_called (Some words not found in SR-GNT: Τότε ἔρχεται μετʼ αὐτῶν ὁ Ἰησοῦς εἰς χωρίον λεγόμενον Γεθσημανί καί λέγει τοῖς μαθηταῖς Καθίσατε αὐτοῦ ἕως οὗ ἀπελθών ἐκεῖ προσεύξωμαι)

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. Alternate translation: [that people call Gethsemane]
