# Can the sons of the wedding hall mourn while the bridegroom is still with them?
Jesus uses a question to answer John's disciples. They all knew that people do not mourn and fast at a wedding celebration. Jesus uses this proverb to show that his disciples do not mourn because he is still there with them. Alternate translation: "The sons of the wedding hall never mourn while the bridegroom is still with them." (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/jit/figs-rquestion]] and [[rc://en/ta/man/jit/writing-proverbs]])

# sons of the wedding hall
This is an idiom that refers to the men who serve a bridegroom during a wedding. Alternate translation: "bridegroom's attendants" (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/jit/figs-idiom]])

# the bridegroom will be taken away from them
This can be stated in active form. Alternate translation: "the bridegroom will not be able to be with them any longer" or "someone will take the bridegroom away from them" (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/jit/figs-activepassive]])
# will be taken away
Jesus is probably referring to his own death, but this should not be made explicit here in the translation. To maintain the imagery of a wedding, it is best to just state that the bridegroom will not be there any longer.
"the bridegroom will not be able to be with them any longer" or "someone will take the bridegroom away from them"
