1.1 KiB
Even the dust from your town that clings to our feet we wipe off against you
This is a symbolic action to show that they reject the people of the city. AT: "Just as you rejected us, we thoroughly reject you. We even reject the dust from your town that clings to our feet" (See: rc://en/ta/man/translate/translate-symaction)
we wipe off
Since Jesus was sending these people out in groups of two, it would be two people saying this. So languages that have a dual form of "we" would use it. (See: rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-exclusive)
But know this: The kingdom of God has come near
The phrase "But know this" introduces a warning. It means "Even though you reject us, it does not change the fact that the kingdom of God is near!"
The kingdom of God has come near
The abstract noun "kingdom" can be expressed with the verbs "reign" or "rule." See how you translated a similar sentence in Luke 10:8. AT: "God will soon rule everywhere as king" or "The proof that God is reigning is all around you" (See: rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-abstractnouns)
