Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / metonymy
ὑπὸ τὴν κραταιὰν χεῖρα τοῦ Θεοῦ
under the mighty hand ¬the ˱of˲_God
Peter uses hand to refer to God’s power to save humble people and punish proud people. If this might confuse your readers, you could express the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: “under God’s great power”
Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / metaphor
ὑμᾶς ὑψώσῃ
you_all ˱he˲_/may/_exalt
Peter is using a spatial metaphor to describe God honoring someone as if God would lift that person up. If this might confuse your readers, you could express the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: “God may show honor to you”
5:1-14 Peter ends the letter with final exhortations to elders (5:1-4), to younger people (5:5), and to the church as a whole (5:5-11). These exhortations are followed by final greetings and a closing (5:12-14).
OET (OET-LV) Therefore be_humbled under the mighty hand of_ the _god, in_order_that he_may_exalt you_all in time,
OET (OET-RV) So humble yourselves under God’s might hand so that he might honour you at the right time.
Note: The OET-RV is still only a first draft, and so far only a few words have been (mostly automatically) matched to the Greek words that they’re translated from.
