OET (OET-RV) You see, nothing is hidden that won’t eventually be disclosed, and there’s no secret that won’t eventually be revealed.
OET-LV For/Because there_is not hidden, if not in_order_that it_may_be_revealed, and_not it_became a_secret, but in_order_that it_may_come to manifest.

(Ou gar estin krupton, ean maʸ hina fanerōthaʸ, oude egeneto apokrufon, allʼ hina elthaʸ eis faneron.)

Note 1 topic: grammar-connect-words-phrases
γάρ
for
Here, the word For introduces an explanation of the illustration that Jesus gave in the previous verse. If it would be helpful in your language, you could use a word or phrase that introduces a reason or basis for a claim, or you could leave For untranslated. Alternate translation: “As you can see,” or “And so,”
Note 2 topic: writing-proverbs
οὐ & ἐστιν κρυπτὸν, ἐὰν μὴ ἵνα φανερωθῇ; οὐδὲ ἐγένετο ἀπόκρυφον, ἀλλ’ ἵνα ἔλθῃ εἰς φανερόν
not & ˱there˲_is hidden if not in_order_that ˱it˲_/may_be/_revealed and_not ˱it˲_became /a/_secret but in_order_that ˱it˲_/may/_come to manifest
Here, Jesus uses or invents a proverb in order to teach that things that are hidden or secret only in order that they might be revealed or come into visibility. Translate this proverb in a way that will be recognized as a proverb and be meaningful in your language and culture. Alternate translation: “things are not hidden except so that they might be revealed. Things have not become secret except so that they might come into visibility”
Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / parallelism
οὐ & ἐστιν κρυπτὸν, ἐὰν μὴ ἵνα φανερωθῇ; οὐδὲ ἐγένετο ἀπόκρυφον, ἀλλ’ ἵνα ἔλθῃ εἰς φανερόν
not & ˱there˲_is hidden if not in_order_that ˱it˲_/may_be/_revealed and_not ˱it˲_became /a/_secret but in_order_that ˱it˲_/may/_come to manifest
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 clauses 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 into one. Alternate translation: “it is not hidden except so that it might be revealed; yes, it has not become secret except so that it might come into visibility” or “it is not hidden except so that it will come into visibility”
Note 4 topic: grammar-connect-exceptions
οὐ & ἐστιν κρυπτὸν, ἐὰν μὴ ἵνα φανερωθῇ; οὐδὲ ἐγένετο ἀπόκρυφον, ἀλλ’ ἵνα ἔλθῃ εἰς φανερόν
not & ˱there˲_is hidden if not in_order_that ˱it˲_/may_be/_revealed and_not ˱it˲_became /a/_secret but in_order_that ˱it˲_/may/_come to manifest
If, in your language, it would appear that Jesus was making statements here and then contradicting them, you could reword this sentence to avoid using exception clauses. Alternate translation: “it is only hidden so that it might be revealed, and it has only become secret so that it might come into visibility”
Note 5 topic: figures-of-speech / activepassive
οὐ & ἐστιν κρυπτὸν, ἐὰν μὴ ἵνα φανερωθῇ; οὐδὲ ἐγένετο ἀπόκρυφον, ἀλλ’ ἵνα ἔλθῃ εἰς φανερόν
not & ˱there˲_is hidden if not in_order_that ˱it˲_/may_be/_revealed and_not ˱it˲_became /a/_secret but in_order_that ˱it˲_/may/_come to manifest
If your language does not use this passive form, you could express the ideas in active form or in another way that is natural in your language. If you need to say who did the actions, you could: (1) use indefinite subjects. Alternate translation: “they do not hide it except so that they might reveal it, nor do they make it secret except so that they might bring it into visibility” (2) indicate that God did them. Alternate translation: “God has not hidden it except so that he might reveal it, nor has he made it secret except so that he might bring it into visibility”
Note 6 topic: writing-pronouns
οὐ & ἐστιν & οὐδὲ ἐγένετο
not & ˱there˲_is & and_not ˱it˲_became
The pronoun it in both places refers generally to anything. Jesus may more specifically have in mind the meaning of his preaching or the kingdom of God. However, since Jesus uses a general proverb form, if possible you also should use a general form that could refer to many things. Alternate translation: “nothing is … nothing has become” or “something is not … nor has something become”
Note 7 topic: figures-of-speech / abstractnouns
ἔλθῃ εἰς φανερόν
˱it˲_/may/_come to manifest
If your language does not use an abstract noun for the idea of visibility, you could express the same idea in another way. Alternate translation: “it might become visible”
Note 8 topic: figures-of-speech / idiom
ἔλθῃ εἰς φανερόν
˱it˲_/may/_come to manifest
Here, the phrase it will come into visibility means that something will be revealed or become known. If it would be helpful in your language, you could use a comparable phrase or state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: “it will be known”
