OET (OET-LV)The in_prayer be_persevering, watching in it with thanksgiving,

OET (OET-RV) Persevere in prayer, keeping watch and being thankful.

uW Translation Notes:

τῇ προσευχῇ προσκαρτερεῖτε

¬The ˱in˲_prayer /be/_persevering

Alternate translation: “Keep praying faithfully” or “Pray consistently”

Note 1 topic: grammar-connect-time-simultaneous

γρηγοροῦντες

watching

The word staying alert expresses what Paul wants the Colossians to do as they pray. If it would be helpful in your language, you could use a customary expression that indicates that staying alert happens at the same time as they “continue steadfastly in prayer.” Alternate translation: “and stay alert”

ἐν αὐτῇ

in it

Alternate translation: “during your time of prayer”

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / abstractnouns

ἐν εὐχαριστίᾳ

in with thanksgiving

If your language does not use an abstract noun for the idea behind thanksgiving, you could express the idea by using a verbal phrase such as “and giving thanks” or an adverb such as “thankfully.” Alternate translation: “thankfully”

TSN Tyndale Study Notes:

4:2 with an alert mind: The Greek verb behind this phrase is used in the New Testament to portray the need for Christians to be watchful in light of Christ’s return (Matt 24:42; 25:13; Mark 13:35, 37; 1 Thes 5:6; Rev 3:3; 16:15).
