UTN uW Translation Notes:
Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit
εἶπεν πρὸς αὐτούς, προσηνέγκατέ μοι τὸν ἄνθρωπον τοῦτον
said to them ˱you_all˲_brought ˱to˲_me ¬the man this
By this man, Pilate means Jesus. If it would be helpful to your readers, you could indicate that explicitly. Alternate translation: [said to them about Jesus, ‘You brought this man to me’]
Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / metaphor
ὡς ἀποστρέφοντα τὸν λαόν
as turning_away the people
Here Pilate uses a figurative term that is similar to the one that the council members use in 23:2 when they accuse Jesus of “misleading” the Jewish nation, meaning that he was encouraging them to do wrong things. The slightly different term that Pilate uses to summarize their charges means that they accused Jesus of turning the people away from their duties to the Roman Empire. It does not mean that Jesus refused to welcome people who came to him for help. Alternate translation: [saying that he encourages the people to be disloyal to the Roman Empire]
Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / metaphor
ἰδοὺ
behold
Pilate uses the term behold to get the Jewish leaders and the crowd to focus their attention on what he is about to say. Alternate translation: [indeed]
Note 4 topic: writing-pronouns
ἐγὼ ἐνώπιον ὑμῶν ἀνακρίνας
I before you_all /having/_examined_‹him›
For emphasis, since he is declaring Jesus innocent, Pilate uses the personal pronoun I here when it would not ordinarily be required in Greek. If your language uses pronouns in this same way, it would be appropriate to do that here in your translation.
Note 5 topic: figures-of-speech / metaphor
ἐγὼ ἐνώπιον ὑμῶν ἀνακρίνας, οὐθὲν εὗρον
I before you_all /having/_examined_‹him› nothing ˱I˲_found
The term before means “in the presence” of another person. Alternate translation: [I have questioned him in your presence, and I have found nothing]
Note 6 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit
ἐγὼ ἐνώπιον ὑμῶν ἀνακρίνας, οὐθὲν εὗρον
I before you_all /having/_examined_‹him› nothing ˱I˲_found
The implication is that the Jewish leaders were witnesses to the proceedings. Alternate translation: [I have questioned him with you present as witnesses, and I have found nothing]
οὐθὲν εὗρον ἐν τῷ ἀνθρώπῳ τούτῳ αἴτιον ὧν κατηγορεῖτε κατ’ αὐτοῦ
nothing ˱I˲_found in ¬the man this guilty ˱of˲_which ˱you_all˲_/are/_accusing against him
See how you translated the similar expression in 23:4. Alternate translation: [found no grounds to convict this man on the charges you are making against him]
