UTN uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / rpronouns

καὶ ἐξ ὑμῶν αὐτῶν

and from ˱of˲_you_all yourselves

Paul is adding the word yourselves for emphasis. Use a way that is natural in your language to indicate this emphasis. Alternate translation: “From within your very own group”

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / metaphor

ἀναστήσονται ἄνδρες λαλοῦντες διεστραμμένα

/will_be/_rising_up men speaking /having_been/_perverted_‹things›

In this context, arise means to take action to get an enterprise under way, not to get up from a sitting or lying position. If it would be helpful in your language, you could state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: “men will begin to speak perverted things”

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / activepassive

διεστραμμένα

/having_been/_perverted_‹things›

If your language does not use this passive form, you could express the idea in active form or in another way that is natural in your language. Alternate translation: “distortions of the truth”

Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / metaphor

τοῦ ἀποσπᾶν τοὺς μαθητὰς ὀπίσω ἑαυτῶν

˱of˲_the_‹thing› /to_be/_drawing_out ¬the disciples after themselves

Paul is speaking as if these false teachers would physically draw away people after them as they themselves left the fellowship of true believers in Jesus. If it would be clearer in your language, you could state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: “in order to influence disciples to follow their teaching instead of Jesus’ teaching”
