Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / quotations

αὐτοὺς ὅτι δεῖ τὸν Υἱὸν τοῦ Ἀνθρώπου πολλὰ παθεῖν, καὶ ἀποδοκιμασθῆναι ὑπὸ τῶν πρεσβυτέρων καὶ τῶν ἀρχιερέων καὶ τῶν γραμματέων, καὶ ἀποκτανθῆναι, καὶ μετὰ τρεῖς ἡμέρας ἀναστῆναι

(Some words not found in SR-GNT: Καί ἤρξατο διδάσκειν αὐτούς ὅτι δεῖ τόν Υἱόν τοῦ Ἀνθρώπου πολλά παθεῖν καί ἀποδοκιμασθῆναι ὑπό τῶν πρεσβυτέρων καί τῶν ἀρχιερέων καί τῶν γραμματέων καί ἀποκτανθῆναι καί μετά τρεῖς ἡμέρας ἀναστῆναι)

It may be more natural in your language to have a direct quotation here. Alternate translation: [them, “It is necessary for the Son of Man to suffer many things and to be rejected by the elders and the chief priests and the scribes and to be killed and to rise up after three days”]

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit

τὸν Υἱὸν τοῦ Ἀνθρώπου

(Some words not found in SR-GNT: Καί ἤρξατο διδάσκειν αὐτούς ὅτι δεῖ τόν Υἱόν τοῦ Ἀνθρώπου πολλά παθεῖν καί ἀποδοκιμασθῆναι ὑπό τῶν πρεσβυτέρων καί τῶν ἀρχιερέων καί τῶν γραμματέων καί ἀποκτανθῆναι καί μετά τρεῖς ἡμέρας ἀναστῆναι)

Here Jesus is referring to himself as the Son of Man. If it would be helpful in your language, you could make that idea more explicit. Alternate translation: [him, who is the Son of Man,]

If your language does not use this passive form, you could express the idea in active form or in another way that is natural in your language. Alternate translation: [to experience rejection from the elders and the chief priests and the scribes]

Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / activepassive

ἀποκτανθῆναι

˓to_be˒_killed_off

If your language does not use this passive form, you could express the idea in active form or in another way that is natural in your language. If you need to say who did the action, you could use an indefinite subject. Alternate translation: [to die] or [to allow someone to kill him]

Note 5 topic: figures-of-speech / idiom

ἀναστῆναι

˓to˒_rise_up

Here, the phrase rise up refers to someone who died coming back to life. If it would be helpful in your language, you could use a comparable word or state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: [to be restored to life] or [to resurrect]

Note 6 topic: figures-of-speech / idiom

μετὰ τρεῖς ἡμέρας

(Some words not found in SR-GNT: Καί ἤρξατο διδάσκειν αὐτούς ὅτι δεῖ τόν Υἱόν τοῦ Ἀνθρώπου πολλά παθεῖν καί ἀποδοκιμασθῆναι ὑπό τῶν πρεσβυτέρων καί τῶν ἀρχιερέων καί τῶν γραμματέων καί ἀποκτανθῆναι καί μετά τρεῖς ἡμέρας ἀναστῆναι)

Here, the phrase after three days refers to the day after tomorrow. People in Jesus’ culture counted the current day as day one, tomorrow as day two, and the day after tomorrow as day three. If it would be helpful in your language, you could use a word or phrase that refers to the day after tomorrow. Alternate translation: [on the day after the next day] or [two days from now]
