OET interlinear MAT 6:15

uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / gendernotations

τοῖς ἀνθρώποις

¬the ˱to˲_people

Although the term men is masculine, Jesus is using the word in a generic sense that includes both men and women. If it would be helpful in your language, you could use a phrase that makes this clear. Alternate translation: “the men and women”

Note 2 topic: translate-textvariants

τοῖς ἀνθρώποις

¬the ˱to˲_people

Many ancient manuscripts read the men. The ULT follows that reading. Other ancient manuscripts read “men their trespasses.” If a translation of the Bible exists in your region, you may wish to use the reading that it uses. If a translation of the Bible does not exist in your region, you may wish to use the reading of the ULT.

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / metaphor

ὁ Πατὴρ ὑμῶν

the Father ˱of˲_you_all

See how you translated the phrase your Father in the previous verse (6:14). Alternate translation: “your Father, God,”

Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / abstractnouns

τὰ παραπτώματα ὑμῶν

the transgressions the transgressions ˱of˲_you_all

If your language does not use an abstract noun for the idea of trespasses, you could express the same idea in another way. Alternate translation: “you when you trespass”
