uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: grammar-connect-logic-result

εἰδὼς

(Some words not found in SR-GNT: εἰδώς ὅτι ταχινή ἐστίν ἡ ἀπόθεσις τοῦ σκηνώματος μού καθώς καί ὁ Κύριος ἡμῶν Ἰησοῦς Χριστός ἐδήλωσεν μοί)

In this clause Peter is giving a reason why he will always remind his audience of doctrinal truths in this letter, specifically faith, goodness, knowledge, self-control, endurance, godliness, brotherly affection, and love, which Peter mentioned in [1:5–7](../01/05.md). Alternate translation: [This is because I know]

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / metaphor

ταχινή ἐστιν ἡ ἀπόθεσις τοῦ σκηνώματός μου

imminent (Some words not found in SR-GNT: εἰδώς ὅτι ταχινή ἐστίν ἡ ἀπόθεσις τοῦ σκηνώματος μού καθώς καί ὁ Κύριος ἡμῶν Ἰησοῦς Χριστός ἐδήλωσεν μοί)

Peter speaks of his body as if it were a tent that he is wearing and will take off. Being in his body represents being alive, and taking it off represents dying. Alternate translation: [I will soon take off this body]

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / euphemism

ταχινή ἐστιν ἡ ἀπόθεσις τοῦ σκηνώματός μου

imminent (Some words not found in SR-GNT: εἰδώς ὅτι ταχινή ἐστίν ἡ ἀπόθεσις τοῦ σκηνώματος μού καθώς καί ὁ Κύριος ἡμῶν Ἰησοῦς Χριστός ἐδήλωσεν μοί)

Putting off his tent is a nice way to refer to dying. If it would be helpful in your language, you could indicate this directly. Alternate translation: [I will die soon]

καθὼς καὶ ὁ Κύριος ἡμῶν, Ἰησοῦς Χριστὸς, ἐδήλωσέν μοι

(Some words not found in SR-GNT: εἰδώς ὅτι ταχινή ἐστίν ἡ ἀπόθεσις τοῦ σκηνώματος μού καθώς καί ὁ Κύριος ἡμῶν Ἰησοῦς Χριστός ἐδήλωσεν μοί)

Suggested footnote: “Peter may be referring here to what Jesus told him, as recorded in John 21:18–19.”
