UTN uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / ellipsis

ὅρα μή

˓be˒_seeing_‹to_it› not

The angel is leaving out some of the words that in many languages a sentence would need in order to be complete. You can supply these words from the context if that would be clearer in your language. Alternate translation: [See that you do not do that]

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / metonymy

ὅρα μή

˓be˒_seeing_‹to_it› not

The angel is using the term See to mean by association that John should give careful attention to what he is doing. If it would be helpful in your language, you could use an equivalent expression or express the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: [Watch out! Do not do that!] or [Be careful not to do that]

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / metaphor

τῶν ἀδελφῶν σου, τῶν προφητῶν

˱of˲_the brothers ˱of˲_you the prophets

The angel is using the term brothers figuratively to mean fellow prophets. If it would be helpful in your language, you could state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: [of your fellow prophets]

Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / gendernotations

τῶν ἀδελφῶν σου, τῶν προφητῶν

˱of˲_the brothers ˱of˲_you the prophets

Although the term brothers is masculine, here the word has a generic sense that includes both men and women. If you wish to retain the figurative expression in your translation, you could word it in a way that is clearly inclusive of both men and women. Alternate translation: [of your brothers and sisters the prophets]

Note 5 topic: figures-of-speech / metonymy

τοὺς λόγους τοῦ βιβλίου τούτου

the words ¬the ˱of˲_scroll this

The angel is using the term words to mean what John has said in this book by using words. If it would be helpful in your language, you could state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: [what you have said in this book]
