6:2b-21 The last major section of the letter returns to the need for Timothy to confront the false teachers. The whole section has a similar structure to 1:3-20.


UTNuW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / doublet

ἀγαθοεργεῖν, πλουτεῖν ἐν ἔργοις καλοῖς

/to_be/_working_good /to_be/_being_rich in works good

The phrases to do good and to be rich in good works mean similar things. Paul is using the two phrases together for emphasis. If it would be clearer for your readers, you could express the emphasis with a single phrase. Alternate translation: “to be rich in doing what is good” or “to do good at all times”

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / metaphor

πλουτεῖν ἐν ἔργοις καλοῖς

/to_be/_being_rich in works good

Here Paul speaks of good works as if they were money that could make people rich if they did many good works. He means that these believers should do very many good works. If it would be helpful in your language, you could explain the figure of speech or state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: “to be rich in good works instead of in money” or “to accomplish a large number of good works”

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / doublet

εὐμεταδότους εἶναι, κοινωνικούς

well_imparting to_be generous

The terms generous and willing to share mean similar things. Paul is using the two terms together for emphasis. If it would be clearer for your readers, you could express the emphasis with a single phrase. Alternate translation: “to be extremely generous” or “to share everything at all times”
