OET interlinear HEB 6:11

uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / exclusive

ἐπιθυμοῦμεν

˱we˲_/are/_desiring

Here the author uses the first person plural (we), but he is referring only to himself. If it would be helpful in your language, you could use a form that more naturally refers to the author. Alternate translation: “I long for”

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit

τὴν αὐτὴν & σπουδὴν

the same & earnestness

Here the author could want the audience to have diligence that is the same as: (1) the diligence that they have shown in the past. Alternate translation: “consistent diligence” (2) how they have “demonstrated” love (See: 6:10). Alternate translation: “diligence, just as you demonstrate love,”

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / abstractnouns

τὴν αὐτὴν & σπουδὴν, πρὸς τὴν πληροφορίαν τῆς ἐλπίδος

the same & earnestness toward the full_assurance ˱of˲_the hope

If your language does not use abstract nouns for the ideas of diligence, assurance, and hope, you could express the ideas in another way. Alternate translation: “that you strive diligently to be fully assured of what you hope for”

Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / possession

πρὸς τὴν πληροφορίαν τῆς ἐλπίδος

toward the full_assurance ˱of˲_the hope

Here the author uses the possessive form to speak about full assurance that concerns hope. If it would be helpful in your language, you could express the idea in another way. Alternate translation: “toward becoming fully assured of your hope”

Note 5 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit

ἄχρι τέλους

until /the/_end

Here, the phrase the end could refer to: (1) the end of the audience’s lives. Alternate translation: “until your lives end” (2) the end of the current time period, which would be when Jesus comes back. Alternate translation: “until the end of the age” or “until Jesus comes back”
