OET (OET-LV)holding the mystery of_the faith in a_ clean _conscience.

OET (OET-RV)and should cling to the mystery of the faith with a clear conscience.

uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit

ἔχοντας τὸ μυστήριον τῆς πίστεως ἐν καθαρᾷ συνειδήσει

holding (Some words not found in SR-GNT: ἔχοντας τό μυστήριον τῆς πίστεως ἐν καθαρᾷ συνειδήσει)

Here, the phrase with a pure conscience could describe: (1) these people’s lives in general. Alternate translation: [having the mystery of the faith and having a pure conscience] (2) the manner in which these people have the mystery. Alternate translation: [having a pure conscience about how they have the mystery of the faith]

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit

ἔχοντας

holding

Here, the word having implies that these people are faithful to and continue to believe what they are having. If it would be helpful in your language, you could make that idea more explicit. Alternate translation: [continuing to believe] or [holding firmly to]

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / possession

τὸ μυστήριον τῆς πίστεως

(Some words not found in SR-GNT: ἔχοντας τό μυστήριον τῆς πίστεως ἐν καθαρᾷ συνειδήσει)

Here, Paul is using the possessive form to describe a mystery that could: (1) contain what people accept by faith. Alternate translation: [the mystery that is the teaching we accept in faith] (1) be what people accept by faith. Alternate translation: [the mystery that we believe]

Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / abstractnouns

τὸ μυστήριον τῆς πίστεως

(Some words not found in SR-GNT: ἔχοντας τό μυστήριον τῆς πίστεως ἐν καθαρᾷ συνειδήσει)

If your language does not use abstract nouns for the ideas of mystery and faith, you could express the same ideas in another way. Make sure that your translation fits with the option you chose in the previous note. Alternate translation: [what we believe that was once hidden] or [the hidden things that we believe]

Note 5 topic: figures-of-speech / idiom

ἐν καθαρᾷ συνειδήσει

in clean ˓a˒_conscience

A conscience that is pure is one that does not convict a person of doing anything wrong. If it would be helpful in your language, you could use a comparable phrase or state the meaning plainly. See how you translated the similar phrases in [1:5](../01/05.md) and [1:19](../01/19.md). Alternate translation: [with a clean conscience] or [with a conscience that is not guilty]

TSN Tyndale Study Notes:

3:1-13 The topic shifts to church leadership by elders (3:1-7) and deacons (3:8-13). Timothy’s role in the appointments is less clear than that of Titus (see 5:17-22; Titus 1:5), possibly because the church in Ephesus was more mature and thus better able to manage the process (cp. Acts 6:2-6). The criteria listed here pertain to character rather than function and are partly a response to the local heretics. Reading this letter in the churches would make the criteria public and demonstrate the unfitness of the heretics for leadership.
