Note 1 topic: grammar-connect-logic-result
διὰ τοῦτο
because_of this
The connecting phrase Because of this introduces the result of a reason-result relationship. The reason is that the days are evil. The result is that the believers will not be foolish, but understand God’s will. Use a phrase in your language that connects a reason to a result.
Note 2 topic: grammar-connect-logic-contrast
ἀλλὰ
but
The connecting word but introduces a contrast relationship. Being foolish is in contrast to understanding God’s will.
OET (OET-LV) Because_of this, not be_becoming foolish, but be_understanding what the will of_the master is.
Note: The OET-RV is still only a first draft, and so far only a few words have been (mostly automatically) matched to the Greek words that they’re translated from.
