uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / metaphor

κομιζόμενοι & σωτηρίαν

Here Peter speaks of salvation as if it were an object that someone could receive. If this would confuse your readers, you could express the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: [experiencing … the salvation]

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / abstractnouns

τῆς πίστεως ὑμῶν

˱of˲_the faith ˱of˲_you_all

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: [of you believing in Jesus]

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / abstractnouns

σωτηρίαν ψυχῶν

˓the˒_salvation ˱of˲_souls

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: [God saving your souls]

Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / synecdoche

σωτηρίαν ψυχῶν

˓the˒_salvation ˱of˲_souls

Here, souls refers to the individual Christians to whom Peter is writing this letter. If this might confuse your readers, you could use plain language. Alternate translation: [your salvation]
