OET interlinear REV 2:26

uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / hendiadys

ὁ νικῶν καὶ ὁ τηρῶν

the_‹one› overcoming ¬which (Some words not found in SR-GNT: Καί ὁ νικῶν καί ὁ τηρῶν ἄχρι τέλους τά ἔργα μού Δώσω αὐτῷ ἐξουσίαν ἐπί τῶν ἐθνῶν)

Here Jesus is expressing a single idea by using two phrases connected with and. The phrase the one keeping tells how the one conquering is able to conquer. If it would be more natural in your language, you could express this meaning with an phrase that does not use “and.” Alternate translation: [the one conquering by keeping]

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / genericnoun

ὁ νικῶν καὶ ὁ τηρῶν

the_‹one› overcoming ¬which (Some words not found in SR-GNT: Καί ὁ νικῶν καί ὁ τηρῶν ἄχρι τέλους τά ἔργα μού Δώσω αὐτῷ ἐξουσίαν ἐπί τῶν ἐθνῶν)

Jesus is not referring to a specific person who is conquering in this way. He means any person who conquers in this way. Express this in the way that would be most natural in your language. Alternate translation: [anyone conquering by keeping]

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / idiom

ὁ τηρῶν & τὰ ἔργα μου

the_‹one› ¬which keeping & (Some words not found in SR-GNT: Καί ὁ νικῶν καί ὁ τηρῶν ἄχρι τέλους τά ἔργα μού Δώσω αὐτῷ ἐξουσίαν ἐπί τῶν ἐθνῶν)

See the discussion in the General Introduction to Revelation of the word “keep.” If it would be helpful in your language, you could state the meaning of this expression plainly. Alternate translation: [the one obediently doing what I command]

Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / possession

ὁ τηρῶν & τὰ ἔργα μου

the_‹one› ¬which keeping & (Some words not found in SR-GNT: Καί ὁ νικῶν καί ὁ τηρῶν ἄχρι τέλους τά ἔργα μού Δώσω αὐτῷ ἐξουσίαν ἐπί τῶν ἐθνῶν)

The possessive form my works describes not what Jesus does but what Jesus commands believers to do. If it would be helpful to your readers, you could state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: [the one doing the works that I command]
