UTN uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: grammar-connect-logic-contrast

δὲ

and

Here, the word But introduces what Jesus said in contrast to what the Jewish leaders asked him. 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: [However,]

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / metonymy

ἕνα λόγον

one word

Jesus is using the term word to refer to what he will ask. If it would be helpful in your language, you could state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: [one thing]

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit

καὶ ἀποκρίθητέ μοι, καὶ ἐρῶ ὑμῖν

and answer ˱to˲_me and ˱I˲_/will_be/_telling ˱to˲_you_all

Here Jesus implies that he will only tell them by what authority he acts if they answer him. If it would be helpful in your language, you could express the idea in conditional form or in some other way that makes this relationship clear. Alternate translation: [and if you answer me, then I will tell you] or [and as long as you answer me, I will tell you]

Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / abstractnouns

ἐν ποίᾳ ἐξουσίᾳ ταῦτα ποιῶ

by what authority these_‹things› ˱I˲_/am/_doing

If your language does not use an abstract noun for the idea of authority, you could express the same idea in another way. See how you expressed the idea in 11:28. Alternate translation: [how I am empowered to do these things]

Note 5 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit

ταῦτα ποιῶ

these_‹things› ˱I˲_/am/_doing

Here, the phrase these things refers to what Jesus has done since he arrived in Jerusalem, including driving people out of the temple, healing people, and teaching. See how you translated the similar phrase in 11:28. Alternate translation: [I teach, heal, and drive people out of the temple]
