uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / metaphor

πεπληρωμένοι καρπὸν δικαιοσύνης τὸν

/having_been/_filled ˱with˲_/the/_fruit ˱of˲_righteousness ¬which

Here, the phrase being filled with is a metaphor meaning to be occupied in doing something. The phrase the fruit of righteousness is a metaphor which refers to what characterizes a person, namely what a person produces. This metaphor is a comparison between a good tree that produces good fruit and a person who is filled with righteousness and produces good actions as a result. So with these two metaphors, Paul is telling the Philippians to be occupied in doing righteous deeds. If this would be unclear in your language, you could state this plainly. Alternate translation: “filling your lives with the righteous deeds that are” or “habitually doing the good works that are”

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / activepassive

πεπληρωμένοι

/having_been/_filled

The phrase being filled with is a passive form. If it would be more natural in your language, you could express this with an active form. Alternate translation: “letting God fill you with” or “continually producing”

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / metaphor

τὸν διὰ Ἰησοῦ Χριστοῦ

¬which through Jesus Christ

Here, the phrase through Christ Jesus is a metaphor meaning that Christ Jesus is the one who makes it possible for a person to be righteous and thus to do the things that a righteous person does. Alternate translation: “that Christ Jesus produces in you” or “that Christ Jesus enables you to produce”

Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / abstractnouns

εἰς δόξαν καὶ ἔπαινον Θεοῦ

to /the/_glory and praise ˱of˲_God

If it would be clearer in your language, you could express the idea behind the abstract nouns glory and praise with verbs. Alternate translation: “which will cause people to glorify and praise God”

Note 5 topic: figures-of-speech / doublet

εἰς δόξαν καὶ ἔπαινον Θεοῦ

to /the/_glory and praise ˱of˲_God

The words glory and praise mean very similar things here. They are used together to emphasize how much people will praise God. If you have one word for this in your language, you could use it here and show emphasis another way. Alternate translation: “which will cause people to greatly praise God” or “which will cause people to declare how great God is”
