OET interlinear MAT 28:18

uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: writing-quotations

λέγων

saying

Consider natural ways of introducing direct quotations in your language. Alternate translation: “and he said”

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / activepassive

ἐδόθη μοι πᾶσα ἐξουσία

/was/_given ˱to˲_me all authority

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 has given to me all authority”

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / abstractnouns

ἐδόθη μοι πᾶσα ἐξουσία

/was/_given ˱to˲_me all authority

If your language does not use an abstract noun for the idea of authority, you could express the same idea in another way. Alternate translation: “I have been completely empowered”

Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / merism

ἐν οὐρανῷ καὶ ἐπὶ τῆς γῆς

in heaven and on (Some words not found in SR-GNT: καὶ προσελθὼν ὁ Ἰησοῦς ἐλάλησεν αὐτοῖς λέγων ἐδόθη μοι πᾶσα ἐξουσία ἐν οὐρανῷ καὶ ἐπὶ γῆς)

Here, Jesus is referring to all of the created world by naming the parts that are at the extreme ends of it. If it would be helpful in your language, you could state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: “in all creation” or “in the universe”
