UTN uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / idiom

ἐκ τοῦ Θεοῦ ἐσμεν

of ¬the God ˱we˲_are

See how you translated the similar expression in 4:4. Alternate translation: “we are sharing life with God” or “we are living in relationship with God”

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / metonymy

ὁ κόσμος ὅλος

the world whole

John uses the term world in various ways in this letter. In this instance, it likely refers both to the people living in the world who do not honor God and to their value system. Alternate translation: “every ungodly person along with the way that he thinks”

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / metaphor

ἐν τῷ πονηρῷ κεῖται

in the evil_‹one› /is/_lying

The expression lies in represents being controlled by someone or something. Alternate translation: “is controlled by the evil one” or “is controlled by evil influences”

Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / abstractnouns

τῷ πονηρῷ

the evil_‹one›

If it would be helpful in your language, you could express the abstract noun evil by stating the meaning behind it with an equivalent expression. This could mean that: (1) John may be speaking of the devil, as in 2:13. Alternate translation: “the devil” (2) John may be speaking of evil influences. Alternate translation: “evil influences”
