24:43 διορυγηναι ¦ διορυχθηναι NA SBL WH
Key for above GNTs: red:words differ (from our SR-GNT base).
Note 1 topic: grammar-connect-words-phrases
δὲ
but
Here, the word But introduces the next thing that Jesus wants to say. If it would be helpful in your language, you could use a word or phrase that introduces the next idea, or you could leave But untranslated. Alternate translation: “Further,”
Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / hypo
ἐκεῖνο & γινώσκετε, ὅτι εἰ ᾔδει ὁ οἰκοδεσπότης, ποίᾳ φυλακῇ ὁ κλέπτης ἔρχεται, ἐγρηγόρησεν ἂν, καὶ οὐκ ἂν εἴασεν διορυχθῆναι τὴν οἰκίαν αὐτοῦ
that & ˱you_all˲_/are/_knowing that if /had/_known the home_owner ˱in˲_what watch the thief /is/_coming ˱he˲_watched would and not would allowed (Some words not found in SR-GNT: ἐκεῖνο δὲ γινώσκετε ὅτι εἰ ᾔδει ὁ οἰκοδεσπότης ποίᾳ φυλακῇ ὁ κλέπτης ἔρχεται ἐγρηγόρησεν ἂν καὶ οὐκ ἂν εἴασεν διορυγῆναι τὴν οἰκίαν αὐτοῦ)
Here Jesus uses an imaginary situation to teach his disciples to be alert while they wait for him to return. Use a natural method in your language for introducing an imaginary situation. Alternate translation: “know this: imagine that the master of the house had known in which watch thief comes. Then, he would have been alert and would not have allowed his house to be broken into”
Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / explicitinfo
ἐκεῖνο & γινώσκετε, ὅτι
that & ˱you_all˲_/are/_knowing that
Here, the word this introduces the phrase that begins with that. This was a powerful way to introduce a statement in Jesus’ culture. If this form would be redundant in your language, you could express the idea in another way. Alternate translation: “know that”
Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / parables
ἐκεῖνο & γινώσκετε, ὅτι
that & ˱you_all˲_/are/_knowing that
To teach his disciples, Jesus offers a story or illustration. If it would be helpful to your readers, you could indicate that explicitly. Alternate translation: “listen to this story:”
Note 5 topic: figures-of-speech / idiom
ποίᾳ φυλακῇ
˱in˲_what watch
Here, the word watch refers to a specific period of time during the night. If it would be helpful in your language, you could use a word or phrase that refers to a period of time during the night. Alternate translation: “in which part of the night”
Note 6 topic: translate-tense
ἔρχεται
/is/_coming
Here Jesus uses the present tense to refer to the future coming of the thief. If it would be helpful in your language, you could use whatever tense would be natural to refer to this action. Alternate translation: “would come”
Note 7 topic: figures-of-speech / activepassive
διορυχθῆναι τὴν οἰκίαν αὐτοῦ
(Some words not found in SR-GNT: ἐκεῖνο δὲ γινώσκετε ὅτι εἰ ᾔδει ὁ οἰκοδεσπότης ποίᾳ φυλακῇ ὁ κλέπτης ἔρχεται ἐγρηγόρησεν ἂν καὶ οὐκ ἂν εἴασεν διορυγῆναι τὴν οἰκίαν αὐτοῦ)
If your language does not use the passive form in this way, you could express the idea in active form or in another way that is natural in your language. If you must state who would do the action, it is clear from the context that the thief would do it. Alternate translation: “the thief to break into his house”
