UTN uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: grammar-connect-words-phrases

δὲ

and

Here, the word Now introduces the next thing that happened. If it would be helpful in your language, you could use a word or phrase that introduces the next event, or you could leave Now untranslated. Alternate translation: “Then”

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / metaphor

ὁ σπείρων τὸ καλὸν σπέρμα ἐστὶν ὁ Υἱὸς τοῦ Ἀνθρώπου

he the_‹one› sowing the good seed is the Son ¬the ˱of˲_Man

Here Jesus speaks as if the one sowing were the Son of Man. He means that the sower represents or is like the Son of Man. If it would be helpful in your language, you could express the idea in simile form or in another way. Alternate translation: “The one sowing the good seed represents the Son of Man” or “The one sowing the good seed should be interpreted as the Son of Man”

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit

τὸ καλὸν σπέρμα

the good seed

Translate the phrase good seed as you did in 13:24. Alternate translation: “the seed that sprouts into productive plants”

Note 4 topic: grammar-collectivenouns

σπέρμα

seed

Here, the word seed is singular in form, but it refers to many seeds as a group. If it would be helpful in your language, you could say this plainly. Alternate translation: “seeds”

ὁ Υἱὸς τοῦ Ἀνθρώπου

he the_‹one› the Son ¬the ˱of˲_Man
