UTN uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: grammar-connect-exceptions

μηδὲν αἴρωσιν εἰς ὁδὸν, εἰ μὴ ῥάβδον μόνον

nothing ˱they˲_/may_be/_taking_away for journey except ¬not/lest /a/_staff only

If, in your language, it would appear that Mark was making a statement here and then contradicting it, you could reword this to avoid using an exception clause. Alternate translation: “the only thing they should take for the road was a staff”

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / metonymy

ὁδὸν

journey

Here, road represents a journey. If it would be helpful in your language, you could use an equivalent expression from your language or state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: “the journey”

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / synecdoche

μὴ ἄρτον

¬not/lest not bread

Mark is using bread to represent any food. If it would be helpful in your language, you could use an equivalent expression from your culture or state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: “nothing to eat”

Note 4 topic: translate-unknown

πήραν

/a/_knapsack

The term bag means something a traveler would use to carry things that were needed on a journey. If your readers would not be familiar with this type of container, you could use the name of something similar in your area or you could use a more general term. Alternate translation: “knapsack”

Note 5 topic: translate-unknown

εἰς τὴν ζώνην

for in the belt

In Jesus’ culture, people would often wrap their money up in long strips of cloth and then tie them around their waists as belts. This was a way to keep the money safe while the people were traveling. If it would be helpful in your language, you could use the name of something similar in your area or you could use a more general term. Alternate translation: “in their money bag” or “to have with you as you travel”

Note 6 topic: figures-of-speech / genericnoun

τὴν ζώνην

the belt

The word belt represents belts in general, not one particular belt. If it would be helpful in your language, you could express the idea in another way. Alternate translation: “their belts”
