UTN uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / activepassive

τὸ πληθυνθῆναι τὴν ἀνομίαν

that /to_be/_multiplied ¬the lawlessness

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. Alternate translation: “lawlessness will increase”

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / abstractnouns

τὴν ἀνομίαν

¬the lawlessness

If your language does not use an abstract noun for the idea of lawlessness, you could express the same idea with a verbal form. Alternate translation: “people doing what is lawless”

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / metaphor

ψυγήσεται ἡ ἀγάπη τῶν πολλῶν

/will_be_being/_cooled the love ˱of˲_the many

Here Jesus speaks as if love were something hot that could literally grow cold. He means that love has diminished or ceased. If it would be helpful in your language, you could use a comparable figure of speech or state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: “the love of many will be like a fire that has gone out” or “the love of many will cease”

Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / abstractnouns

ψυγήσεται ἡ ἀγάπη τῶν πολλῶν

/will_be_being/_cooled the love ˱of˲_the many

If your language does not use an abstract noun for the idea of love, you could express the same idea in another way. Alternate translation: “many will grow cold in how they love”

Note 5 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit

ἡ ἀγάπη τῶν πολλῶν

the love ˱of˲_the many

Here Jesus could be speaking about: (1) love for other people. Alternate translation: “the love of many for other people” (2) love for God. Alternate translation: “the love of many for God”

Note 6 topic: figures-of-speech / nominaladj

τῶν πολλῶν

˱of˲_the many

Jesus is using the adjective many as a noun to mean many people. Your language may use adjectives in the same way. If not, you could translate this word with an equivalent phrase. Alternate translation: “of many men and women”
