OET interlinear MAT 8:32

uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / yousingular

ὑπάγετε

/be/_going

Here, the command is plural because Jesus is speaking to all the demons.

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit

ἐξελθόντες

/having/_come_out

Here Matthew implies that they came out of the two men. If it would be helpful in your language, you could make this idea more explicit. Alternate translation: “having come out of the two men”

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit

εἰς τοὺς χοίρους

into the pigs

Here, much as in 8:31, the demons gointo the pigs. This means that they enter and control the pigs. If it would be helpful in your language, you could make this idea more explicit. Alternate translation: “into the pigs to possess them”

Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / exclamations

ἰδοὺ

behold

Here, the word behold draws the attention of the audience and asks them to listen carefully. If it would be helpful in your language, you could express behold with a word or phrase that asks the audience to listen, or you could draw the audience’s attention in another way. Alternate translation: “picture this” or “suddenly”

Note 5 topic: writing-pronouns

ἀπέθανον

˱they˲_died_off

The pronoun they refers to the pigs. If this is not clear for your readers, you could refer more directly to the pigs. Alternate translation: “the pigs died”
