UTN uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: grammar-connect-logic-contrast

δὲ

and

Jesus uses the word But to introduce a contrast with what he has just said. Alternate translation: “Instead,”

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / hyperbole

ἀγρυπνεῖτε & ἐν παντὶ καιρῷ

/be/_watching & at every season

The expression in every time means “all the time” or “always.” Jesus is using it, as a generalization. Alternate translation: “always continue to watch”

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / metaphor

ἀγρυπνεῖτε

/be/_watching

Jesus is using this expression in a figurative sense. Alternate translation: “stay alert” or “watch”

Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit

ἀγρυπνεῖτε

/be/_watching

The implication is that Jesus is telling his disciples to do this so that they will not be surprised when he returns. Alternate translation: “watch for the signs of my coming”

Note 5 topic: figures-of-speech / metaphor

καὶ σταθῆναι ἔμπροσθεν τοῦ Υἱοῦ τοῦ Ἀνθρώπου

and /to_be/_stood before the Son ¬the ˱of˲_Man

Here, before means “in front of” or “in the presence of” another person. Alternate translation: “and to stand in the presence of the Son of Man”

Note 6 topic: figures-of-speech / metaphor

καὶ σταθῆναι ἔμπροσθεν τοῦ Υἱοῦ τοῦ Ἀνθρώπου

and /to_be/_stood before the Son ¬the ˱of˲_Man

Here, stand is an idiom that means to be declared innocent when judged, as in Psalm 130:3, “If you, Yahweh, would mark iniquities, Lord, who could stand?” (That is, “If you, Yahweh, kept a record of sins, no one would be declared innocent.”) Jesus is referring to the time when he will judge everyone. Alternate translation: “and so that the Son of Man will declare you innocent”

Note 7 topic: figures-of-speech / 123person

τοῦ Υἱοῦ τοῦ Ἀνθρώπου

the Son ¬the ˱of˲_Man

Jesus is referring to himself in the third person. If it would be helpful in your language, you could translate this in the first person. Alternate translation: “me, the Son of Man” or “I, the Son of Man”

Note 8 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit

τοῦ Υἱοῦ τοῦ Ἀνθρώπου

the Son ¬the ˱of˲_Man

See how you translated the title Son of Man in 5:24. Alternate translation: “me, the Messiah”
