Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / activepassive
ῥυσθῶμεν
˱we˲_/may_be/_rescued
You can state this in active form. Alternate translation: “God may save us” or “God may rescue us”
Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / doublet
ἀτόπων καὶ πονηρῶν
perverse and evil
The two terms perverse and evil mean basically the same thing and are used together to emphasize the amount of evil. If your language does not use repetition to do this or if you do not have two words for these attributes, you can use one phrase and provide emphasis in another way. Alternate translation: “very wicked men” or “many wicked men”
Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / litotes
οὐ γὰρ πάντων ἡ πίστις
not_‹is› for ˱of˲_all_‹are› the faith
The phrase not everyone is a negative understatement that emphasizes how rare faith is. If this is confusing in your language, you can express the meaning positively. Alternate translation: “for only some people believe in the Lord” or “for people who believe in Jesus are few”
Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / abstractnouns
ἡ πίστις
the faith
If your language does not use an abstract noun for the idea of faith, you can express the same idea in another way. Alternate translation: “believes in Jesus”
3:2 Paul, too, suffered for the Good News (2 Cor 6:5; 11:23-26; 1 Thes 2:2). His prayer to be rescued echoes Isa 25:4.

Note: The OET-RV is still only a first draft, and so far only a few words have been (mostly automatically) matched to the Hebrew or Greek words that they’re translated from.
