UTN uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: grammar-connect-logic-contrast

δὲ

but

Here, the word But introduces what Jesus said in contrast to what the disciples were doing. If it would be helpful in your language, you could use a word or phrase that introduces this kind of contrast, or you could leave But untranslated. Alternate translation: [In contrast,]

Note 2 topic: grammar-connect-logic-result

ἄφετε τὰ παιδία ἔρχεσθαι πρός με, καὶ μὴ κωλύετε αὐτά; τῶν γὰρ τοιούτων ἐστὶν ἡ Βασιλεία τοῦ Θεοῦ

allow the little_children /to_be/_coming to me and not /be/_forbidding them ¬the for ˱of˲_such is the Kingdom ¬the ˱of˲_God

If it would be more natural in your language, you could reverse the order of these clauses, since the last clause gives the reason for the result that the first two clauses describe. Alternate translation: [Of the ones such as these is the kingdom of God, so permit the little children to come to me, and do not forbid them]

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / parallelism

ἄφετε τὰ παιδία ἔρχεσθαι πρός με, καὶ μὴ κωλύετε αὐτά

allow the little_children /to_be/_coming to me and not /be/_forbidding them

These two clauses mean basically the same thing. The second emphasizes the meaning of the first by repeating the same idea with different words. If it would be helpful to your readers, you could connect the phrases with a word other than and in order to show that the second phrase is repeating the first one, not saying something additional. Alternatively, you could combine the two clauses. Alternate translation: [Permit the little children to come to me; yes, do not forbid them] or [Permit the little children to come to me]

Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / yousingular

ἄφετε & μὴ κωλύετε

allow & not /be/_forbidding

Because Jesus is speaking to his disciples, the commands Permit and do not forbid are plural.

Note 5 topic: figures-of-speech / go

ἔρχεσθαι

/to_be/_coming

In a context such as this, your language might say “go” instead of come. Alternate translation: [to go]

Note 6 topic: figures-of-speech / possession

τῶν & τοιούτων ἐστὶν ἡ Βασιλεία τοῦ Θεοῦ

¬the & ˱of˲_such is the Kingdom ¬the ˱of˲_God

Here, Jesus is using the possessive form to describe people who belong in the kingdom of God. If this is not clear in your language, you could express the idea in another way. Alternate translation: [the kingdom of God belongs to the ones such as these] or [the ones such as these belong in the kingdom of God]

Note 7 topic: writing-pronouns

τῶν & τοιούτων

¬the & ˱of˲_such

The pronoun these refers to the little children. If this is not clear for your readers, you could refer to the little children more directly. Alternate translation: [of the ones such as these little children]

Note 8 topic: figures-of-speech / simile

τῶν & τοιούτων

¬the & ˱of˲_such

Jesus is referring to the little children and to people who are like them. He does not indicate exactly how these people are like the little children, so if possible express the idea in simile form. Alternate translation: [of people who are like these]
