OET interlinear 1PET 1:5

uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / activepassive

τοὺς ἐν δυνάμει Θεοῦ φρουρουμένους

who by /the/_power ˱of˲_God /being/_guarded

If your language does not use the passive form in this way, you can state this in active form or in another way that is natural in your language. Alternate translation: “the ones whom God is protecting with his power”

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / abstractnouns

διὰ πίστεως

through faith

If your language does not use an abstract noun for the idea of faith, you can express the same idea in another way. Alternate translation: “by believing in Jesus”

Note 3 topic: grammar-connect-logic-goal

εἰς σωτηρίαν

for /the/_salvation

Here, for introduces a purpose clause. Peter is stating a purpose for which God is protecting believers. Use a natural way in your language for introducing a purpose clause. Alternate translation: “for the purpose of giving us a salvation”

Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / abstractnouns

εἰς σωτηρίαν ἑτοίμην ἀποκαλυφθῆναι

for /the/_salvation ready /to_be/_revealed

If your language does not use an abstract noun for the idea of salvation, you can express the same idea in another way. Alternate translation: “for the time when God saves you, which is ready to be revealed”

Note 5 topic: figures-of-speech / activepassive

ἑτοίμην ἀποκαλυφθῆναι

ready /to_be/_revealed

If your language does not use the passive form in this way, you can state this in active form or in another way that is natural in your language. Alternate translation: “that God is ready to reveal”

Note 6 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit

ἐν καιρῷ ἐσχάτῳ

by in /the/_time last

Here, the last time refers to “the day of the Lord,” which is the time when Jesus returns to the world to judge everyone and vindicate those who believe in him. (See: dayofthelord) If it would be helpful to your readers, you could express this explicitly. Alternate translation: “in the last time, when Jesus returns and judges everyone”
