Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / abstractnouns
πᾶσα ἀδικία ἁμαρτία ἐστίν
all unrighteousness sin is
If it would be helpful in your language, you could express the idea behind the abstract noun unrighteousness with an equivalent expression. Alternate translation: [Every time we do what God does not want, that is sin]
Note 2 topic: grammar-connect-logic-contrast
καὶ
and
John is using the word and to introduce a contrasting statement that is intended to encourage the believers to whom he is writing. Alternate translation: [however,]
Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / metaphor
ἔστιν ἁμαρτία οὐ πρὸς θάνατον
˱there˲_is /a/_sin not to death
See how you translated the word death in the previous verse. There and here, it refers to spiritual death. Alternate translation: [not every sin leads to eternal separation from God] or [not every sin causes a person to die spiritually]
5:17 not every sin leads to death: Those sins that do not involve ultimate apostasy can end in repentance and restoration (see Jas 5:20).
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.
