UTN uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit

ὡς ἀγνοούμενοι καὶ ἐπιγινωσκόμενοι, ὡς ἀποθνῄσκοντες καὶ ἰδοὺ, ζῶμεν, ὡς παιδευόμενοι καὶ μὴ θανατούμενοι

as /being/_not_knowing and_yet /being/_known_fully as dying_off and_yet behold ˱we˲_/are/_living as /being/_disciplined and_yet not /being/_put_to_death

Here and in the following verse Paul uses as to introduce what other people think about him and his fellow workers, and then he uses yet to introduce what is really true about them. If it would be helpful in your language, you could use a form that naturally expresses a contrast between what people think and what is actually true. Alternate translation: “considered to be unknown, but actually well known; considered to be dying, but actually—behold!—living; considered to be being disciplined, but actually not being put to death”

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / activepassive

ὡς ἀγνοούμενοι καὶ ἐπιγινωσκόμενοι

as /being/_not_knowing and_yet /being/_known_fully

If your language does not use the passive form in this way, you could express the idea in active form or in another way that is natural in your language. If you must state who does the actions, Paul could be implying that he is: (1) unknown to many people but known to God. Alternate translation: “many people not knowing us, yet God knowing us well” (2) unknown to some people, but known to other people. Alternate translation: “some people not knowing us, yet others knowing us well”

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / exclamations

καὶ ἰδοὺ, ζῶμεν

and_yet and_yet behold ˱we˲_/are/_living

Here, the word behold draws the attention of the audience and asks them to listen carefully. If it would be helpful in your language, you could express the idea with a word or phrase that asks the audience to listen, or you could use another form that draws the audience’s attention to the statement that follows. Alternate translation: “yet, and listen to this, living” or “yet most certainly living”

Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / activepassive

ὡς παιδευόμενοι καὶ μὴ θανατούμενοι

as as as /being/_disciplined and_yet not /being/_put_to_death

If your language does not use the passive form in this way, you could express the idea in active form or in another way that is natural in your language. If you must state who does the actions, Paul could be implying that: (1) God does them. Alternate translation: “God disciplining us yet not putting us to death” (2) other people do them. Alternate translation: “people disciplining us yet not putting us to death”

Note 5 topic: figures-of-speech / abstractnouns

μὴ θανατούμενοι

not /being/_put_to_death

If your language does not use an abstract noun for the idea of death, you could express the idea by using a verb such as “die” or “kill.” Alternate translation: “yet not being killed” or “not dying”
