OET (OET-LV) The heaven and the earth will_be_passing_away, but the the_messages of_me by_no_means will_ not _be_passing_away.
Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / merism
ὁ οὐρανὸς καὶ ἡ γῆ
the heaven and the earth
Here Jesus refers two main components of creation, heaven and earth, to refer to all of creation. If it would be helpful to your readers, you could state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: [All creation] or [The universe]
Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / metonymy
οἱ & λόγοι μου
the & /the/_words ˱of˲_me
Here, the phrase my words represents what Jesus has said using words. If it would be helpful in your language, you could use an equivalent expression from your language or state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: [the things I have spoken]
Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / doublenegatives
οὐ μὴ παρελεύσονται
by_no_means not /will_be/_passing_away
If it would be clearer in your language, you could use a positive expression to translate this double negative that consists of the negative phrase certainly not and the negative verb pass away. Alternate translation: [will always remain] or [will always be true]
Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / doublenegatives
οὐ μὴ
by_no_means not
The words translated certainly not are two negative words. In this construction, the second negative does not cancel the first to create a positive meaning. Instead, it gives greater emphasis to the negative. If your language can use two negatives that do not cancel one another to create a positive meaning, you could use a double negative here. If your language does not use two negatives in that way, you could translate with one strong negative, as the ULT does. Alternate translation: [by no means]
13:31 Jesus personally guaranteed what he had said. My words include specifically what Jesus said in the whole discourse of Mark 13:1-37. Mark’s readers would have understood this as guaranteeing the truth of all Jesus’ teachings known to them (Luke 1:2). Like the Old Testament Scriptures (see Isa 40:8), Jesus’ words are eternal. His teachings are more abiding than the fundamental elements of creation. The basic elements of creation will pass away (see also Ps 102:25-26; Isa 40:6-8; 51:6; Matt 5:18; Luke 16:17; 2 Pet 3:7, 10; Rev 20:11), but Jesus’ words will never disappear.
OET (OET-LV) The heaven and the earth will_be_passing_away, but the the_messages of_me by_no_means will_ not _be_passing_away.
Note: The OET-RV is still only a first draft, and so far only a few words have been (mostly automatically) matched to the Hebrew or Greek words that they’re translated from.
