UTN uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: grammar-connect-logic-result

οὖν

therefore

Here, the word Therefore introduces the conclusion to what Jesus has said about prayer in 6:5–8. If it would be helpful in your language, you could use a different word that introduces a conclusion, or you could leave Therefore untranslated. Alternate translation: [So then] or [In the end]

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / metaphor

Πάτερ ἡμῶν

Father ˱of˲_us

This is a figurative expression. God is not the Father of humans in the same actual way that he is the Father of Jesus. Even so, it would probably be best to translate Father with the same word that your language would naturally use to refer to a human father. If it would be helpful to your readers, you could indicate that this means God. Alternate translation: [God, who is our Father]

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / exclusive

ἡμῶν

˱of˲_us

By Our, Jesus means himself and his disciples, so use the inclusive form of that word in your translation if your language marks that distinction.

Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit

ὁ ἐν τοῖς οὐρανοῖς

the_‹one› in the heavens

Here, the phrase in the heavens identifies the location in which God the Father is specially present and from which he rules. If it would be helpful in your language, you could make this idea more explicit. Alternate translation: [who is in the heavens]

Note 5 topic: figures-of-speech / imperative3p

ἁγιασθήτω τὸ ὄνομά σου

/let_be/_sanctified the name ˱of˲_you

If your language does not use the third-person imperative in this way, you could state this in another way that is natural in your language. Alternate translation: [we want your name to be made holy] or [we pray that your name is made holy]

Note 6 topic: figures-of-speech / activepassive

ἁγιασθήτω τὸ ὄνομά σου

/let_be/_sanctified the name ˱of˲_you

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, you could use an indefinite subject. Alternate translation: [let people treat your name as holy] or [let people regard your name as holy]

Note 7 topic: figures-of-speech / metonymy

τὸ ὄνομά σου

the name ˱of˲_you

Here, the word name refers primarily to the person who has that name, and it focuses especially on who that person is. If it would be helpful in your language, you could use a comparable expression or plain language. Alternate translation: [you yourself] or [who you are]

Note 8 topic: figures-of-speech / yousingular

σου

˱of˲_you

Since Jesus is praying to God the Father, the word your here is singular.
