Note: This view shows ‘verses’ which are not necessarily natural language units and hence sometimes only part of a sentence will be visible—click on any Bible version abbreviation down the left-hand side to see the verse in more of its context. Normally the OET discourages the reading of individual ‘verses’, but this view is only designed as a tool for Bible-translators and others doing comparisons of different translations—the older translations are further down the page (so you can read up from the bottom to trace the English translation history). The OET segments on this page are still early looks into the drafted texts of the Open English Translation of the Bible—please double-check these texts in advance before using in public.

UTN uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / rquestion

τίς ἄρα ἐστὶν ὁ πιστὸς δοῦλος καὶ φρόνιμος, ὃν κατέστησεν ὁ κύριος ἐπὶ τῆς οἰκετείας αὐτοῦ, τοῦ δοῦναι αὐτοῖς τὴν τροφὴν ἐν καιρῷ

(Some words not found in SR-GNT: Τίς ἄρα ἐστίν ὁ πιστός δοῦλος καί φρόνιμος ὅν κατέστησεν ὁ κύριος ἐπί τῆς οἰκετείας αὐτοῦ τοῦ δοῦναι αὐτοῖς τήν τροφήν ἐν καιρῷ)

Jesus is using the question form to introduce a further illustration or application of what he has been saying. If you would not use the question form for this purpose in your language, you could translate this as a statement or an exclamation. Alternate translation: [Consider, then, who might be the faithful and wise slave whom the master has appointed over his household to give them their food in time.] or [You should know, then, who is the faithful and wise slave whom the master has appointed over his household to give them their food in time!]

Note 2 topic: grammar-connect-logic-result

τίς ἄρα

The word then introduces an inference that Jesus draws from what he has said about being alert and ready. If it would be helpful in your language, you could use a different word or phrase that introduces an inference, or you could leave then untranslated. Alternate translation: [Given what I have said, who] or [So then, who]

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit

ὃν κατέστησεν ὁ κύριος ἐπὶ τῆς οἰκετείας αὐτοῦ

The implication, as the rest of the parable makes clear, is that the master is making this arrangement temporarily and provisionally, because he is going to be absent for a time. You could include this information if that would be helpful to your readers. Alternate translation: [whom his master, while he goes away for a while, has appointed over his household]

Note 4 topic: grammar-connect-logic-goal

τοῦ δοῦναι αὐτοῖς τὴν τροφὴν

¬which ˓to˒_give ˱to˲_them (Some words not found in SR-GNT: Τίς ἄρα ἐστίν ὁ πιστός δοῦλος καί φρόνιμος ὅν κατέστησεν ὁ κύριος ἐπί τῆς οἰκετείας αὐτοῦ τοῦ δοῦναι αὐτοῖς τήν τροφήν ἐν καιρῷ)

The phrase to give introduces the purpose for which the master appointed the slave. If it would be helpful in your language, you could use a different word or phrase that introduces a purpose. Alternate translation: [for the purpose of giving them their food]

Note 5 topic: figures-of-speech / idiom

ἐν καιρῷ

in season

The phrase in time refers to the appropriate or correct time for something to happen. If it would be helpful in your language, you could use a comparable phrase or state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: [at the appropriate times] or [when it is time]
