UTN uW Translation Notes:

κενοῖς λόγοις

˱with˲_empty words

Alternate translation: “with words that have no truth in them” or “by speaking words that are not true”

Note 1 topic: grammar-connect-logic-result

γὰρ

for

The connecting word for introduces a reason-result relationship. The result is stated first: that the Ephesian believers should not let anyone deceive them with empty words. Then the reason is stated: that the wrath of God will judge those things. Use a phrase that connects a reason to a result, and put them in the order that is most natural in your language.

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / abstractnouns

ἔρχεται ἡ ὀργὴ τοῦ Θεοῦ ἐπὶ

/is/_coming the wrath ¬the ˱of˲_God on

If your language does not use an abstract noun for the idea behind the word wrath, you could express the same idea with a verbal form. Alternate translation: “God will certainly punish”

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / idiom

τοὺς υἱοὺς τῆς ἀπειθείας

the sons ¬the ˱of˲_disbelief

This is an idiom that means, “people who habitually disobey” or “people who are characterized by disobedience” Alternate translation: “those who disobey God”
