UTN uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: translate-unknown

ὁ θυρωρὸς

the doorkeeper

A gatekeeper is a person who guards the sheep pen and opens the gate for the shepherd. If your readers would not be familiar with this way of protecting livestock, you could use a general expression for a person who guards an entrance. Alternate translation: [The gate guard] or [The person guarding the gate]

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / ellipsis

ὁ θυρωρὸς ἀνοίγει

the doorkeeper /is/_opening_up

Jesus is leaving out some of the words that a clause would need in many languages to be complete. If it would be helpful in your language, you could supply these words from the previous verse. Alternate translation: [The gatekeeper opens the gate]

Note 3 topic: writing-pronouns

τούτῳ & τῆς φωνῆς αὐτοῦ & τὰ ἴδια πρόβατα φωνεῖ

˱to˲_this_‹one› & ˱of˲_the voice ˱of˲_him & his own sheep ˱he˲_/is/_calling

In this verse, this one, his, and he refer to the shepherd mentioned in the previous verse. If it would be more natural in your language, you could state this explicitly. Alternate translation: [for this shepherd … the shepherd’s voice … the shepherd calls his own sheep]

Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / metaphor

τὰ πρόβατα τῆς φωνῆς αὐτοῦ ἀκούει

the sheep ˱of˲_the voice ˱of˲_him /is/_hearing

Here, hear could mean: (1) all the sheep in the pen hear the shepherd’s voice, but not all of them respond to it, as in the ULT. This meaning implies that there are multiple flocks in the sheep pen. (2) the sheep that belong to the shepherd heed or obey his voice. This implies that the sheep are identical with his own sheep. Alternate translation: [the sheep heed his voice]

Note 5 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit

τὰ ἴδια πρόβατα φωνεῖ κατ’ ὄνομα

the his own sheep ˱he˲_/is/_calling by name

Here, his own sheep are designated as a separate group among the sheep of the previous clause. If this might confuse your readers, you could express the meaning explicitly. Alternate translation: [he calls his own sheep by name out from among all the sheep]
