SIL Open Translator’s Notes:

Section 5:12–22: Paul gave more instructions about how to please God

In this section Paul gave a list of some very important instructions. He returned to the topic he had started in 4:12, the topic of how Christians should behave.

Paragraph 5:14–18

In these verses Paul gave further commands about how believers should behave.

5:17

Pray without ceasing.

Pray without ceasing: This does not mean that believers should pray many times a day or that they should do nothing but pray. Rather it means that believers should “keep on praying, be always ready to pray” instead of just doing so at set times or on special occasions.

without ceasing: The Greek word adialeiptōs, which means without ceasing or “continually,” is the word emphasized in this sentence. See the note on 5:15b above. You should emphasize this in your translation in the way that is natural in your language.

uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / hyperbole

ἀδιαλείπτως

(Some words not found in SR-GNT: Ἀδιαλείπτως προσεύχεσθε)

Paul says continually here as a generalization for emphasis. If it would be helpful in your language, you could use a different way to express the emphasis. Alternate translation: [very regularly] or [extremely often]
