γὰρ
for
Here, the word For introduces a further explanation of why the disciples should not be anxious. If it would be helpful in your language, you could use a word or phrase that introduces a further explanation, or you could leave For untranslated. Alternate translation: “Indeed,” or “As you know,”
Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit
ἐπιζητοῦσιν
/are/_seeking_after
Here, the word seek refers to focusing on and trying to obtain something. If it would be helpful in your language, you could make this idea more explicit. Alternate translation: “focus on” or “try to obtain”
Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit
πάντα & ταῦτα & τούτων ἁπάντων
all & these_‹things› & ˱of˲_these_‹things› all
Here, the phrases all these things and all of these things refer to food, drink, clothing, and other necessities. If it would be helpful in your language, you could make this idea more explicit. Alternate translation: “food, drink, and clothing … food, drink, and clothing” or “all these necessities … all of these necessities”
Note 4 topic: grammar-connect-logic-result
(Occurrence 2) γὰρ
for
Here, the word for introduces a reason why the disciples should not be anxious about food, drink, or clothing. The word does not connect the clause to what Jesus just said about the Gentiles. If it would be helpful in your language, you could use a word or phrase that introduces a reason for a previous command, or you could leave for untranslated. Alternate translation: “you should not seek these things, because” or “but you should not be anxious about these things since”
Note 5 topic: figures-of-speech / metaphor
ὁ Πατὴρ ὑμῶν ὁ οὐράνιος
the Father ˱of˲_you_all ¬the heavenly
This is a figurative expression. God is not the Father of humans in the same actual way that he is the Father of Jesus. Even so, it would probably be best to translate Father with the same word that your language would naturally use to refer to a human father. If it would be helpful to your readers, you could indicate that this means God. Alternate translation: “God your heavenly Father”
6:32 unbelievers (literally Gentiles): Those who fail to know God and follow his will (see also 20:19).
• your heavenly Father already knows: Prayer does not inform God about needs; it expresses trust in his provision.
OET (OET-LV) For/Because the pagans are_seeking_after all these things, because/for the the heavenly father of_you_all has_known that you_all_are_needing of_ all _these things.
OET (OET-RV) People with no trust in God are trying to obtain all those things, but your heavenly father already knows that you need these things.
Note: The OET-RV is still only a first draft, and so far only a few words have been (mostly automatically) matched to the Greek words that they’re translated from.
