UTN uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / metaphor

ἰδοὺ

behold

Here, the word behold draws the attention of the audience and asks them to listen carefully. If it would be helpful in your language, you could express behold with a word or phrase that asks the audience to listen, or you could draw the audience’s attention in another way. Alternate translation: “picture this” or “suddenly”

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / nominaladj

τῶν δώδεκα

˱of˲_the twelve

Matthew is using the adjective Twelve as a noun to refer to Jesus’ closest disciples. Your language may use adjectives in the same way. If not, you could translate this word with an equivalent phrase. See how you expressed the idea in 26:14. Alternate translation: “of the 12 apostles” or “of the 12 men whom Jesus had chosen to be apostles”

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / ellipsis

καὶ μετ’ αὐτοῦ ὄχλος πολὺς

and and with him /a/_crowd great

Matthew is leaving out some of the words that a sentence would need in many languages to be complete. If it would be clearer in your language, you could supply these words from earlier in the sentence. Alternate translation: “and with him came a large crowd”

Note 4 topic: translate-unknown

ξύλων

clubs

A “club” is a hard piece of wood that a person uses to hit people. If your readers would not be familiar with this type of weapon, you could use the name of something similar in your area or you could use a more general term. Alternate translation: “sticks for hitting people”
