Note 2 topic: grammar-connect-words-phrases

γὰρ

(gar)

Here, the word For introduces another reason why the disciples should not despise little ones (see 18:10). If it would be helpful in your language, you could use a word or phrase that introduces a reason or basis for a claim, or you could leave For untranslated. Alternate translation: [Indeed,] or [Even further,]

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / 123person

ὁ υἱὸς τοῦ ἀνθρώπου

(ho huios tou anthrōpou)

Here Jesus speaks about himself in the third person. If it would be helpful in your language, you could use the first person. Alternate translation: [I, who am the Son of Man,]

Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / idiom

Ἦλθεν

(Aʸlthen)

Here, the word came refers to Jesus entering this world as a human to do what God called him to do. If it would be helpful in your language, you could use a comparable phrase or state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: [came to this world] or [began to live here]

Note 5 topic: figures-of-speech / metaphor

τὸ ἀπολωλός

Alternate translation: [the one that has been far from God] or [the one that is not following God]

Note 6 topic: figures-of-speech / genericnoun

τὸ ἀπολωλός

(to apolōlos)

The phrase the one that had been lost represents lost people in general, not one particular lost person. If it would be helpful in your language, you could express the idea in another way. Alternate translation: [anyone that had been lost]
