OET-LV The of_hospitality not be_forgetting, through for this, escaped_notice some having_lodged messengers.

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / litotes
μὴ ἐπιλανθάνεσθε
(Some words not found in SR-GNT: Τῆς φιλοξενίας μή ἐπιλανθάνεσθε διά ταύτης γάρ ἔλαθον τινές ξενίσαντες ἀγγέλους)
The phrase Do not neglect is a negative understatement that emphasizes how much the audience should focus on hospitality. If it would be helpful in your language, you could express the meaning positively and include emphasis in another way. Alternate translation: [Focus on showing] or [Strive to always be]
Note 2 topic: writing-pronouns
διὰ ταύτης
(Some words not found in SR-GNT: Τῆς φιλοξενίας μή ἐπιλανθάνεσθε διά ταύτης γάρ ἔλαθον τινές ξενίσαντες ἀγγέλους)
The word this refers to hospitality. If it would be helpful in your language, you could make what this refers to explicit. Alternate translation: [through hospitality] or [by being hospitable]
Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit
ἔλαθόν
(Some words not found in SR-GNT: Τῆς φιλοξενίας μή ἐπιλανθάνεσθε διά ταύτης γάρ ἔλαθον τινές ξενίσαντες ἀγγέλους)
The audience would have inferred that these people did not “know” that the strangers they had shown hospitality to were angels. If it would be helpful in your language, you could make this more explicit. Alternate translation: [without knowing that they were angels]
