UTN uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: grammar-connect-words-phrases

δέ

and

Here, the word But 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 But untranslated. Alternate translation: “Then,”

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit

εἰπόντος

˱he˲_/having/_said

Here Matthew implies that Peter is the one speaking. If it would be helpful in your language, you could make that idea more explicit. Alternate translation: “when Peter said”

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit

τῶν ἀλλοτρίων & οἱ υἱοί

the strangers & the sons

Here, just as in 17:25, the words strangers and sons could be referring to: (1) people over whom kings rule as opposed to their own children. Alternate translation: “other people … the families” (2) conquered people as opposed to citizens of the kingdom. Alternate translation: “people they have conquered … the citizens”

Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit

ἄρα γε ἐλεύθεροί εἰσιν οἱ υἱοί

consequently surely /the/_free_‹ones› are the sons

Here Jesus implies that he agrees with Peter’s answer. If it would be helpful in your language, you could make that idea more explicit. Alternate translation: “You are correct, and so the sons are free”

Note 5 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit

ἐλεύθεροί εἰσιν οἱ υἱοί

/the/_free_‹ones› are the sons

Here Jesus implies that he and Peter are like sons and so do not have to pay the tax. If it would be helpful in your language, you could make that idea more explicit. Alternate translation: “the sons are free, and we are like those sons” or “the sons are free, which means that you and I also do not have to pay”
