OET interlinear 2COR 4:9

uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / activepassive

διωκόμενοι, ἀλλ’ οὐκ ἐνκαταλειπόμενοι; καταβαλλόμενοι, ἀλλ’ οὐκ ἀπολλύμενοι

/being/_persecuted but not (Some words not found in SR-GNT: διωκόμενοι ἀλλʼ οὐκ ἐγκαταλειπόμενοι καταβαλλόμενοι ἀλλʼ οὐκ ἀπολλύμενοι)

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. If you must state who does the actions, you could use indefinite subjects for persecuted and thrown down, or you could indicate that God is the one who does not “forsake.” Alternate translation: “someone persecuting us, but God not forsaking us; someone throwing us down, but we not perishing”

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / metaphor

καταβαλλόμενοι

/being/_struck_down

Here, Paul speaks as if people physically push him and his fellow workers so that they fall down. By speaking in this way, he is referring to any time people act against or bully him and his fellow workers, which may or may not be physical. If it would be helpful in your language, you could state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: “being bullied” or “being attacked”
