Exegesis
The closing question ti ara estai hēmin {τί ἄρα ἔσται ἡμῖν | TI A-ra ES-tai hē-MĒN} uses the interrogative ti with the inferential particle ara to express a reasoned expectation about future outcome or reward, with hēmin marking the disciples as beneficiaries. In English, the formal rendering preserves the sequential structure and explicit “all things” plus “what then will there be for us,” while the dynamic rendering uses contemporary idiom (“given up everything,” “what will we receive”) to convey the same expectation within natural speech.
In context — Matthew 19:27
Then Peter answered and said to Him , “Behold, we have left all things and have followed You; what then will there be for us?”
