ἡ ἀγάπη τῷ πλησίον κακὸν οὐκ ἐργάζεται
¬The love ˱to˲_the_‹one› near evil not /is/_doing
Here Paul speaks of love as if it were a person who could do some kind of work. He means that people who love other people do not do evil things to them. If it would be helpful in your language, you could express the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: “People who love do not work evil to a neighbor”
Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / abstractnouns
ἡ ἀγάπη τῷ πλησίον & κακὸν & πλήρωμα & νόμου & ἡ ἀγάπη
¬The love ˱to˲_the_‹one› near & (Some words not found in SR-GNT: ἡ ἀγάπη τῷ πλησίον κακὸν οὐκ ἐργάζεται πλήρωμα οὖν νόμου ἡ ἀγάπη)
If your language does not use abstract nouns for the ideas of love, evil, and fulfillment, you could express the same ideas in another way. Alternate translation: “Loving a neighbor … what is evil … loving others fulfills the law”
Note 3 topic: grammar-collectivenouns
νόμου
˱of˲_/the/_law
See how you translated the law in 2:12.
13:8-10 These verses discuss how believers relate to other people. If we truly love others, our actions will reflect all the commandments in the law that concern our relationships with other people.
OET (OET-LV) The love to_the one near evil not is_doing, therefore the_fullness of_the_law the love is.
OET (OET-RV) If you love those near to you, you won’t do evil to them, thus love fulfills God’s law.
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.
