Jesus continues to teach his disciples. ## have continued with me in my temptations ## "have stayed with me through my struggles" ## I give to you a kingdom even as my Father has given a kingdom to me ## Some languages may need to change the order. "Just as my father has given a kingdom to me, I give it to you." ## I give to you a kingdom ## "I make you rulers in God's kingdom" (UDB) or "I give you authority to rule in the kingdom" or "I will make you kings" ## even as my Father has given a kingdom to me ## "just as my Father gave me authority to rule as king in his kingdom" ## you will sit on thrones ## "Sit on thrones" is a metonym for "do the work of kings." This means "you will work as kings" or "you will do the work of kings." (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-metonymy]]) ## thrones ## This can be translated as "kings' chairs" or "chairs made for kings."
