UTN uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: writing-quotations

πρὸς τίνα δὲ τῶν ἀγγέλων εἴρηκέν ποτε

to which but ˱of˲_the angels ˱he˲_/has/_said once

Here the author quotes from the Old Testament. He does not introduce it as a quotation but instead as words that God has spoken to his Son, not to angels. However, the audience would have understood that this was a quotation from the Old Testament, specifically from Psalm 110:1. Since the author introduces the quotation as words that God has said to his Son, not to angels, you should introduce the quotations as words that someone has or has not said. If your readers would not know that the quotation is from the Old Testament, you could include a footnote or use some other form to identify the quotation. Alternate translation: “But to which of the angels has he ever spoken the words”

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / rquestion

πρὸς τίνα δὲ τῶν ἀγγέλων εἴρηκέν ποτε, κάθου ἐκ δεξιῶν μου, ἕως ἂν θῶ τοὺς ἐχθρούς σου, ὑποπόδιον τῶν ποδῶν σου?

to which but ˱of˲_the angels ˱he˲_/has/_said once /be/_sitting on /the/_right ˱of˲_me until ¬wishfully ˱I˲_/may/_set the enemies ˱of˲_you ˱as˲_/a/_footstool ˱for˲_the feet ˱of˲_you

The author does not ask this question because he is looking for information. Rather, he asks it to involve the audience in what he is arguing. The question assumes that the answer is “none of them,” for God only said these words to his own Son. If it would be helpful in your language, you could express the idea with a strong negation. See how translated the similar question in 1:5. Alternate translation: “But God has never said to any of the angels, ‘Sit at my right hand until I make your enemies a footstool for your feet.’”

Note 3 topic: writing-pronouns

εἴρηκέν ποτε

˱he˲_/has/_said once

Here, he refers to God the Father. If it would be helpful in your language, you could make what he refers to explicit. Alternate translation: “has God ever said”

Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / yousingular

κάθου & σου & σου

/be/_sitting & ˱of˲_you & ˱of˲_you

Since the words Sit and your refer to one person, the Son, all forms of “you” in this verse are singular.

Note 5 topic: translate-symaction

κάθου ἐκ δεξιῶν μου

/be/_sitting on /the/_right ˱of˲_me

When someone sits at the right hand of God, it symbolizes that person’s honor, authority, and ability to rule. If it would be helpful in your language, you could make this idea more explicit. See how you translated the similar words in 1:3. Alternate translation: “Sit to rule at my right hand” or “Take the place of honor and authority at my right hand”

Note 6 topic: figures-of-speech / synecdoche

ἐκ δεξιῶν μου

on /the/_right ˱of˲_me

Here, the phraseat my right hand refers to the place next to a person’s right hand, which would be the “right side.” In the author’s culture, this side was associated with honor or authority. If it would be helpful in your language, you could refer to the “right side.” Make sure that your readers understand that this side indicates that the Son has honor and authority when he sits there. Alternate translation: “at my right side” or “at the honorable place next to me”

Note 7 topic: figures-of-speech / metaphor

ἕως ἂν θῶ τοὺς ἐχθρούς σου, ὑποπόδιον τῶν ποδῶν σου

until ¬wishfully ˱I˲_/may/_set the enemies ˱of˲_you ˱as˲_/a/_footstool ˱for˲_the feet ˱of˲_you

Here the author of the quotation speaks as if the Son’s enemies could become a footstool on which he puts his feet. In the author’s culture, something that is under feet has been conquered and is powerless and shamed, so this means that God will conquer and shame all the enemies of the Son. If it would be helpful in your language, you could state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: “until I make your enemies kneel before you” or “until I conquer and shame your enemies”
