Matius 26:50

26:50 Jesus ³  said to him, “Friend, do what you are here to do.” Then they came and took hold ⁴  of Jesus and arrested him.

[13:43]  ¹ sn An allusion to Dan 12:3.

[13:43]  ² tn The translation “had better listen!” captures the force of the third person imperative more effectively than the traditional “let him hear,” which sounds more like a permissive than an imperative to the modern English reader. This was Jesus’ common expression to listen and heed carefully (cf. Matt 11:15, 13:9; Mark 4:9, 23; Luke 8:8, 14:35).

[26:50]  ³ tn Here δέ (de) has not been translated.

[26:50]  ⁴ tn Grk “and put their hands on Jesus.”
