12:13 ποιησατε ¦ ποιειτε CT
Key for above GNTs: yellow:punctuation differs, red:words differ (from our SR-GNT base).
12:1-17 The author challenges his hearers to endure in following Jesus, the supreme example of faithfulness, by imitating him in his suffering (12:1-4), by enduring under God’s discipline (12:5-13), and by living in peace with others (12:14-17).
τροχιὰς ὀρθὰς ποιεῖτε τοῖς ποσὶν ὑμῶν
paths straight /be/_making ˱for˲_the feet ˱of˲_you_all
These words are very similar to the first half of Proverbs 4:26. The author does not seem to be quoting directly from Proverbs, but the language is similar enough that you may want to include a footnote that indicates the similarity.
Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / metaphor
τροχιὰς ὀρθὰς ποιεῖτε τοῖς ποσὶν ὑμῶν
paths straight /be/_making ˱for˲_the feet ˱of˲_you_all
Here the author speaks as if his audience were runners who needed to make straight paths for their feet to run on. If it would be helpful in your language, you could express the idea by using a simile or plain language. The author could be referring to how straight paths are: (1) the quickest and best way to reach a destination. In this case, he wants the audience to direct all their attention to trusting and obeying God, which is the quickest and best way to receive what God has promised. Alternate translation: “direct your attention to following God” (2) the correct paths. In this case, the author is encouraging his audience to do what is right. Alternate translation: “do what is just and right”
Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / metonymy
τοῖς ποσὶν ὑμῶν
˱for˲_the feet ˱of˲_you_all
Here, the word feet refers to what one does with feet, which is running or walking. If it would be helpful in your language, you could refer directly to running or walking here. Alternate translation: “to walk on” or “for you to run on”
Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / metaphor
μὴ τὸ χωλὸν ἐκτραπῇ
not the lame /may_be/_turning_away
Here the author speaks of those who are not confidently trusting and obeying God as if they were lame. These people are in danger of ceasing to believe at all, which the author refers to as if it were a joint being dislocated. If it would be helpful in your language, you could express the idea by using a simile or plain language. Alternate translation: “the weak in faith might not be lost” or “those who are struggling might not give up”
Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / nominaladj
τὸ χωλὸν
the lame
The author is using the adjective lame as a noun in order to refer to any body part that is lame, and by extension, any person with a lame body part. Your language may use adjectives in the same way. If not, you could translate this one with a noun phrase. Alternate translation: “the lame body parts” or “the people who are lame”
Note 5 topic: figures-of-speech / activepassive
μὴ τὸ χωλὸν ἐκτραπῇ
not the lame /may_be/_turning_away
If your language does not use the passive form in this way, you could express the idea in active form or in another way that is natural in your language. The author uses the passive form here to focus on the people who are dislocated rather than on whatever does the “dislocating.” If it would be helpful in your language, you could rephrase the clause so that it is active in form. Alternate translation: “nothing would dislocate the lame”
Note 6 topic: figures-of-speech / activepassive
ἰαθῇ δὲ μᾶλλον
/may_be/_healed but rather
If your language does not use the passive form in this way, you could express the idea in active form or in another way that is natural in your language. The author uses the passive form here to focus on those who are healed rather than on whatever does the healing. If it would be helpful in your language, you could rephrase the clause so that it is active in form. Alternate translation: “but rather might become well” or “but rather might heal”
