UTN uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / infostructure

οὐ μὴ εἰσέλθῃ εἰς αὐτὴν πᾶν κοινὸν, καὶ ὁ ποιῶν βδέλυγμα καὶ ψεῦδος

by_no_means not /may/_come_in into it any unclean_‹thing› and the_‹one› practicing abomination and /a/_falsehood

It may be more natural to put the information about the one doing abomination and falsehood with the information about the everything unclean. Alternate translation: “everything unclean and the one doing abomination and falsehood will not at all enter into her”

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / abstractnouns

ὁ ποιῶν βδέλυγμα καὶ ψεῦδος

the_‹one› practicing abomination and /a/_falsehood

If your language does not use abstract nouns for the ideas of abomination and falsehood, you could express the same ideas in other ways. Alternate translation: “anyone who does abominable things and tells lies”

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / idiom

εἰ μὴ

except ¬not/lest

This expression limits the meaning of enter to the people it introduces. Your language may have its own way of expressing this idea. Alternate translation: “but only”

Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / metonymy

οἱ γεγραμμένοι

the_‹ones› /having_been/_written

John is referring to the names of people by association with the people themselves. If it would be helpful in your language, you could use an equivalent expression or express the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: “the ones whose names have been written”

Note 5 topic: figures-of-speech / activepassive

οἱ γεγραμμένοι

the_‹ones› /having_been/_written

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. If you need to say who did the action, the context suggests that it was God. Alternate translation: “the ones whom God has written” or “the ones whose names God has written”
