OET interlinear MARK 15:4

uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: grammar-connect-words-phrases

δὲ

(Some words not found in SR-GNT: ὁ Δέ Πιλᾶτος πάλιν ἐπηρώτησεν αὐτόν λέγων Οὐκ ἀποκρινῇ οὐδέν Ἴδε πόσα σοῦ κατηγοροῦσιν)

Here, the word Now introduces the next thing that happened. If it would be helpful in your language, you could use a word or phrase that introduces the next event, or you could leave Now untranslated. Alternate translation: [Then]

Note 2 topic: writing-quotations

λέγων

saying

Consider natural ways of introducing direct quotations in your language. Alternate translation: [and he asked]

Note 3 topic: grammar-connect-logic-result

οὐκ ἀποκρίνῃ οὐδέν? ἴδε, πόσα σου κατηγοροῦσιν!

(Some words not found in SR-GNT: ὁ Δέ Πιλᾶτος πάλιν ἐπηρώτησεν αὐτόν λέγων Οὐκ ἀποκρινῇ οὐδέν Ἴδε πόσα σοῦ κατηγοροῦσιν)

If it would be more natural in your language, you could reverse the order of these sentences, since the second sentence gives the reason for the question in the first sentence. Alternate translation: [See how many things they are accusing you! Do you not answer anything?]

Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / doublenegatives

οὐκ ἀποκρίνῃ οὐδέν

(Some words not found in SR-GNT: ὁ Δέ Πιλᾶτος πάλιν ἐπηρώτησεν αὐτόν λέγων Οὐκ ἀποκρινῇ οὐδέν Ἴδε πόσα σοῦ κατηγοροῦσιν)

The words translated not and anything 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: [Do you answer nothing]

οὐκ ἀποκρίνῃ οὐδέν?

(Some words not found in SR-GNT: ὁ Δέ Πιλᾶτος πάλιν ἐπηρώτησεν αὐτόν λέγων Οὐκ ἀποκρινῇ οὐδέν Ἴδε πόσα σοῦ κατηγοροῦσιν)

Alternate translation: [Do you have no answer]

Note 5 topic: figures-of-speech / metonymy

ἴδε

(Some words not found in SR-GNT: ὁ Δέ Πιλᾶτος πάλιν ἐπηρώτησεν αὐτόν λέγων Οὐκ ἀποκρινῇ οὐδέν Ἴδε πόσα σοῦ κατηγοροῦσιν)

Here Pilate uses the word See to refer to hearing or paying attention to something. If it would be helpful in your language, you could state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: [Hear] or [Consider]
