and if any other_‹thing› ˱to˲_the being_sound teaching /is/_opposing

Here Paul leaves out some of the words that, in many languages, a sentence would need to be complete. You could supply these words from the context if it would be clearer in your language. Alternate translation: “and people who do anything else that is contrary to the healthy teaching”

Note 5 topic: figures-of-speech / metaphor

τῇ ὑγιαινούσῃ διδασκαλίᾳ

˱to˲_the being_sound teaching

Here Paul speaks as if teaching could be healthy. He means that this kind of teaching is good and reliable in every way and has no defect or corruption. If it would be helpful in your language, you could express the idea in simile form or state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: “teaching that is like healthy food” or “the correct teaching”
