UTN uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: translate-tense

λέγει

˱he˲_/is/_saying

To call attention to a development in the story, Matthew uses the present tense in past narration. If it would not be natural to do that in your language, you could use the past tense in your translation. Alternate translation: [he said]

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / activepassive

οἱ & κεκλημένοι

the_‹ones› & /having_been/_invited

If your language does not use this passive form, you could express the idea in active form or in another way that is natural in your language. If you need to say who did the action, it is clear from the context that it was king himself. Alternate translation: [the ones that I had invited]

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit

ἄξιοι

worthy

Here the king implies that the people were not worthy to attend the wedding feast. If it would be helpful in your language, you could make that idea more explicit. Alternate translation: [worthy to come] or [worthy to be at the feast]
