ἐν δικαιοσύνῃ καὶ ὁσιότητι τῆς ἀληθείας
in righteousness and devoutness ¬the ˱of˲_truth
If your language does not use an abstract noun for the idea behind the words righteousness, holiness, and truth, you could express the same ideas with verbal forms. Alternate translation: “truly righteous and holy”
Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / metaphor
ἐνδύσασθαι τὸν καινὸν ἄνθρωπον
/to/_dress_in the new person
Paul continues to speak of a way of living as if it were a person, and also as if it were clothing, so that one could put on the new person like a robe. Alternate translation: “be the new person” or “start living in the new way”
4:24 A believer has a new nature: God’s Spirit expresses his life within the believer (see Col 3:10; cp. Gen 1:26; Rom 12:1-2; Gal 5:22-23). The transforming work of God’s Spirit is part of the gift of salvation (Eph 2:8-10).
