OET interlinear 1 TIM 1:3

uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit

πορευόμενος εἰς Μακεδονίαν

going to Macedonia

Here Paul could be implying that, when he previously urged Timothy to remain in Ephesus, he was: (1) in Ephesus with Timothy and was about to leave for Macedonia. Alternate translation: [being about to leave Ephesus for Macedonia] (2) already on his way to Macedonia. In this case, Paul would be referring to a letter he had previously written to Timothy. Alternate translation: [being on my way to Macedonia]

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / go

πορευόμενος

going

In a context such as this, your language might say “coming” instead of going. Alternate translation: [coming]

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / yousingular

σε

(Some words not found in SR-GNT: Καθώς παρεκάλεσα σέ προσμεῖναι ἐν Ἐφέσῳ πορευόμενος εἰς Μακεδονίαν ἵνα παραγγείλῃς τισίν μή ἑτεροδιδασκαλεῖν)

In this letter, with one exception, the words you, “your,” and “yourself” refer to Timothy and so are singular. A note will discuss the one exception in [6:21](../06/21.md).

Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit

ἑτεροδιδασκαλεῖν

˓to_be˒_teaching_differently

The implication is that these people were teaching different things than what Paul and Timothy taught, not that they were teaching in a different way. If it would be helpful in your language, you could make that idea more explicit. Alternate translation: [to teach what is different from what we teach] or [to teach a different doctrine]
