UTN uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / rquestion

οὐ διὰ τοῦτο πλανᾶσθε, μὴ εἰδότες τὰς Γραφὰς, μηδὲ τὴν δύναμιν τοῦ Θεοῦ?

not because_of this ˱you_all˲_/are_being/_strayed not /having/_known the Scriptures nor the power ¬the ˱of˲_God

Jesus is using the question form to rebuke the Sadducees. If you would not use the question form for this purpose in your language, you could translate this as a statement or an exclamation. Alternate translation: [You are most certainly being led astray because of this, not knowing the Scriptures nor the power of God!] or [I tell you that you are being led astray because of this, not knowing the Scriptures nor the power of God.]

Note 2 topic: grammar-connect-logic-result

οὐ διὰ τοῦτο πλανᾶσθε, μὴ εἰδότες τὰς Γραφὰς, μηδὲ τὴν δύναμιν τοῦ Θεοῦ

not because_of this ˱you_all˲_/are_being/_strayed not /having/_known the Scriptures nor the power ¬the ˱of˲_God

If it would be more natural in your language, you could reverse the order of these clauses, since the second clause gives the reason for the result that the first clause describes. Alternate translation: [Is it not because you do not know the Scriptures nor the power of God that you are being led astray]

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / activepassive

οὐ & πλανᾶσθε

not & ˱you_all˲_/are_being/_strayed

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 does the action, it is clear from the context that it is they themselves. Alternate translation: [Are you not going astray] or [Are you not leading yourselves astray]

Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / yousingular

οὐ & πλανᾶσθε

not & ˱you_all˲_/are_being/_strayed

Because Jesus is speaking to the Sadducees, the word you here is plural.

Note 5 topic: figures-of-speech / explicitinfo

διὰ τοῦτο & μὴ εἰδότες

because_of this & not /having/_known

Here, the word this refers directly ahead to the phrase not knowing the Scriptures nor the power of God. Jesus expresses the idea in this way because it was powerful in his language. If using the word this to refer to what someone is about to say would be redundant in your language, you could omit the redundant information and make the expression powerful in another way. Alternate translation: [because you do not know]

Note 6 topic: figures-of-speech / abstractnouns

τὴν δύναμιν τοῦ Θεοῦ

the power ¬the ˱of˲_God

If your language does not use an abstract noun for the idea of power, you could express the same idea in another way. Alternate translation: [the powerful things that God can do]
