Normally the OET discourages the reading of individual ‘verses’, but this view is only designed for doing comparisons of different translations.

UTNuW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / parallelism

ἀνεῴχθη & τὸ στόμα αὐτοῦ & καὶ ἡ γλῶσσα αὐτοῦ

/was/_opened_up & the mouth ˱of˲_him & and the tongue ˱of˲_him

These two phrases mean the same thing. Luke uses them together for emphasis. If it would be helpful in your language, you could combine these phrases. Alternate translation: [he became able to speak once again]

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / metonymy

ἀνεῴχθη & τὸ στόμα αὐτοῦ & καὶ ἡ γλῶσσα αὐτοῦ

/was/_opened_up & the mouth ˱of˲_him & and the tongue ˱of˲_him

Each of these phrases describes the act of speaking by referring to something associated with speech coming into action, specifically, the mouth opening and the tongue moving about freely. Alternate translation: [he became able to talk once again]

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / activepassive

ἀνεῴχθη & τὸ στόμα αὐτοῦ & καὶ ἡ γλῶσσα αὐτοῦ

/was/_opened_up & the mouth ˱of˲_him & and the tongue ˱of˲_him

If it would be helpful in your language, you could express this with an active form. You could also say who did the action. Alternate translation: [he became able to talk once again] or [God enabled him to speak once again] or, if you want to use the figurative language, “God opened his mouth and freed his tongue”
