UTN uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: translate-versebridge

οὐδὲ γὰρ ἐνδεής τις ἦν ἐν αὐτοῖς

not_even for impoverished any was among them

This statement expresses the result of the rest of what Luke says in this verse and what he says in the next verse. If it would be helpful in your language to put this result after the reasons for it, you could create a verse bridge by moving this statement to the end of the next verse and beginning it with the word “So” instead of For.

Note 2 topic: grammar-connect-logic-result

γὰρ

for

Luke uses the word For in its first instance in this verse to introduce the evidence or reason for his statement at the end of the previous verse that “great grace was upon them all.” The meaning here depends on the meaning there. Alternate translation: (1) “The way God was blessing the believers could be seen in the fact that” or (2) “One thing that made the people think very highly of the believers was that”

Note 3 topic: grammar-connect-logic-result

(Occurrence 2) γὰρ

for

Luke uses the word for in its second instance in this verse to introduce the reason why no one in the community of believers was needy. Alternate translation: “and the reason for this was that”

Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / hyperbole

ὅσοι γὰρ κτήτορες χωρίων ἢ οἰκιῶν ὑπῆρχον

as_many_as for owners ˱of˲_properties or houses /were/_being

The phrase as many as is a generalization for emphasis. Alternate translation: “many believers who owned lands or houses”

Note 5 topic: figures-of-speech / activepassive

τὰς τιμὰς τῶν πιπρασκομένων

the values ˱of˲_the_‹things› /being/_sold

If it would be helpful in your language, you could state this with an active form. Alternate translation: “the money that they received from the things they sold”
