Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / activepassive
πορνεία δὲ, καὶ ἀκαθαρσία πᾶσα, ἢ πλεονεξία, μηδὲ ὀνομαζέσθω ἐν ὑμῖν
sexual_immorality but and impurity all or greediness not ˱it˲_˓let_be_being˒_named among you_all
If your language does not use this passive form, you can state this in active form. Alternative translation: [Do not do anything that would let anyone think that you are guilty of sexual immorality or any kind of impurity or greed]
Note 2 topic: grammar-connect-logic-contrast
δὲ
but
The connecting word But introduces a contrast relationship. The fragrant offering and sacrifice to God is in contrast to sinful acts and thoughts that are not fitting for saints. Use a connecting word that indicates a contrast in your language.
ἀκαθαρσία πᾶσα
impurity all
Alternate translation: [any moral uncleanness]
5:3-5 God’s people (literally holy ones) must have a holy lifestyle, avoiding the immorality common among unbelievers (cp. 4:19; Col 3:5).

Note: The OET-RV is still only a first draft, and so far only a few words have been (mostly automatically) matched to the Hebrew or Greek words that they’re translated from.
