UTN uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / idiom

ἐν ἐκείνῃ τῇ ἡμέρᾳ

in that ¬the day

Jesus is using the term day to refer to a specific time. Alternate translation: [At that time]

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / hypo

ὃς ἔσται ἐπὶ τοῦ δώματος, καὶ τὰ σκεύη αὐτοῦ ἐν τῇ οἰκίᾳ, μὴ καταβάτω ἆραι αὐτά

who will_be on the housetop and the goods ˱of˲_him in his house not ˱him˲_/let/_come_down /to/_take_away them

Jesus is speaking of a hypothetical situation that might occur at this time. Alternate translation: [suppose someone is doing something on the roof of his house. Then he should not go inside to get his valuables]

Note 3 topic: translate-unknown

ἐπὶ τοῦ δώματος

on the housetop

In this culture, housetops were flat and people could go up onto them without being in danger of sliding off. Housetops were used for a variety of purposes, such as storing and ripening grain and fruit, sleeping in hot weather, and gathering in a large open space. If housetops or roofs are different in your culture and your readers would not understand that Jesus is speaking of someone doing an ordinary activity, you could use a general expression in your translation. Alternate translation: [doing something outside the house]

τὰ σκεύη αὐτοῦ

the goods ˱of˲_him

Alternate translation: [his possessions] or [his valuables]

Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit

μὴ καταβάτω ἆραι αὐτά

not ˱him˲_/let/_come_down /to/_take_away them

The implication is that people should flee immediately without even taking the time to secure their valuables. If it would be helpful to your readers, you could state that explicitly. Alternate translation: [he should flee immediately, without going inside to get his valuables]

Note 5 topic: figures-of-speech / hypo

καὶ ὁ ἐν ἀγρῷ, ὁμοίως μὴ ἐπιστρεψάτω εἰς τὰ ὀπίσω

and and the_‹one› in /the/_field likewise not ˱him˲_/let/_return to the_‹things› back

Jesus is speaking of a hypothetical situation that might occur at this time. Alternate translation: [and suppose someone is out working in the field. Then he too should not go back into the house for anything]

Note 6 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit

μὴ ἐπιστρεψάτω εἰς τὰ ὀπίσω

not not ˱him˲_/let/_return to the_‹things› back

The implication once again is that people should flee immediately without even taking the time to secure their valuables. If it would be helpful to your readers, you could state that explicitly. Alternate translation: [he should flee immediately, without going back to the house to get his valuables]
