UTN uW Translation Notes:
Note 1 topic: translate-bmoney
τὰ πέντε τάλαντα & ἄλλα πέντε τάλαντα & πέντε τάλαντά & ἄλλα πέντε τάλαντα
the five talents & /the/_other five talents & five talents & another five talents
See how you translated talents in 25:15. Alternate translation: “about 90 years’ wages … another 90 years’ wages … about 90 years’ wages … another 90 years’ wages”
Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit
προσήνεγκεν ἄλλα πέντε τάλαντα
brought /the/_other five talents
Here Jesus implies that the slave brought the original five talents as well as the five talents that he gained. If it would be helpful in your language, you could make that idea more explicit. Alternate translation: “brought those five talents and another five talents”
Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / quotesinquotes
λέγων, Κύριε, πέντε τάλαντά μοι παρέδωκας, ἴδε, ἄλλα πέντε τάλαντα ἐκέρδησα
saying Master five talents ˱to˲_me ˱you˲_gave_over behold another five talents ˱I˲_gained
If it would be clearer in your language, you could translate this so that there is not a quotation within a quotation. Alternate translation: “saying to his master that he had handed over to him five talents and that he gained another five talents”
Note 4 topic: writing-quotations
λέγων
saying
If you keep the direct quotation, consider natural ways of introducing it in your language. Alternate translation: “and he declared”
Note 5 topic: figures-of-speech / yousingular
παρέδωκας
˱you˲_gave_over
Since the slave is talking to the his master, the word you here is singular.
Note 6 topic: figures-of-speech / exclamations
ἴδε
behold
Here, the word behold draws the attention of the master and asks him to listen carefully. If it would be helpful in your language, you could express Behold with a word or phrase that asks people to listen, or you could use a different form that draws people’s attention. Alternate translation: “look” or “listen”
