UTN uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit

ἐκεῖθεν

from_there

Here, the word there refers to the place where Jesus raised the girl who had died. If it would be helpful in your language, you could make this idea more explicit. Alternate translation: “from the official’s house” or “from where he raised the girl”

Note 2 topic: writing-quotations

κράζοντες καὶ λέγοντες

crying_out and saying

Consider natural ways of introducing direct quotations in your language. Alternate translation: “crying out” or “saying loudly”

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit

ἐλέησον ἡμᾶς

show_mercy ˱to˲_us

When the blind men ask for mercy, they are asking Jesus to heal them from their blindness. If it would be helpful to your readers, you could make this idea more explicit. Alternate translation: “Have mercy on us and heal us”

Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / abstractnouns

ἐλέησον ἡμᾶς

show_mercy ˱to˲_us

If your language does not use an abstract noun for the idea of mercy, you could express the same idea in another way. Alternate translation: “Be merciful to us”

Note 5 topic: figures-of-speech / metaphor

Υἱὲ Δαυείδ

(Some words not found in SR-GNT: καὶ παράγοντι ἐκεῖθεν τῷ Ἰησοῦ ἠκολούθησαν αὐτῷ δύο τυφλοὶ κράζοντες καὶ λέγοντες ἐλέησον ἡμᾶς υἱὸς Δαυίδ)

Here, the word Son means a male descendant. It does not mean that Jesus was the direct son of David. If it would be helpful in your language, you could state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: “Descendant of David” or “you who are descended from David”

Note 6 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit

Υἱὲ Δαυείδ

David was Israel’s most important king, and God had promised him that one of his descendants would be the Messiah. So the title Son of David could implicitly mean “Messiah.” If it would be helpful in your language, you could make this idea more explicit. Alternate translation: “Son of David, Messiah”
