Note 1 topic: grammar-connect-logic-result
γὰρ
for
For here indicates that what follows is the reason why what Paul stated in the previous verse is true. Use a natural way in your language for indicating a reason. Alternate translation: “This is due to the fact that”
Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit
Πνεύματι
˱by˲_/the/_Spirit
Here and throughout this chapter, the Spirit refers to the Holy Spirit. See how you translated the same use of Spirit in 3:2.
Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / abstractnouns
ἐκ πίστεως & ἐλπίδα δικαιοσύνης
by faith & (Some words not found in SR-GNT: ἡμεῖς γὰρ Πνεύματι ἐκ πίστεως ἐλπίδα δικαιοσύνης ἀπεκδεχόμεθα)
If your language does not use abstract nouns for the ideas of faith, hope, and righteousness, you could express the same ideas in another way. See how you translated faith in 2:16 and righteousness in 2:21. Alternate translation: “by trusting … what is hopeful of what it righteous”
Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / exclusive
ἡμεῖς
we
Here, we refers to Paul and those who trust in Christ instead of the law, so we would be exclusive. Your language may require you to mark this form.

ἡμεῖς & ἐκ πίστεως ἐλπίδα δικαιοσύνης ἀπεκδεχόμεθα
we & by faith /the/_hope ˱of˲_righteousness /are/_eagerly_waiting
This could mean: (1) we eagerly wait by faith. Alternate translation: “we eagerly wait by faith for the hope of righteousness” (2) righteousness is by faith. Alternate translation: “we eagerly wait for the hope of righteousness by faith”
Note 6 topic: figures-of-speech / possession
ἐλπίδα δικαιοσύνης

This could mean: (1) people hope for righteousness. Alternate translation: “the hope for righteousness” (2) the hope is righteousness. Alternate translation: “the hope, that is, righteousness”
5:5 The alternative to living by faith in the law is to live by complete reliance on the Spirit to make us pleasing to God.
• eagerly wait to receive by faith the righteousness God has promised to us (or eagerly await by faith the hope that righteousness gives us): We receive God’s righteousness at our salvation (Rom 5:9-11; 10:10), in an ongoing way through the Spirit’s sanctification (Rom 8:1-14), and fully at the resurrection when Christ returns (Rom 8:18-30). It is God’s power that provides righteousness, and he fulfills his promise (Gal 3:14, 22).
OET (OET-RV) Because we who are in the spirit are eagerly waiting for the righteousness that we are expecting to receive by faith.
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.
