uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: translate-blessing

δῴη ἔλεος ὁ Κύριος τῷ Ὀνησιφόρου οἴκῳ

/might/_give mercy the Lord ˱to˲_the ˱of˲_Onesiphorus household

Here Paul asks God to bless the family of Onesiphorus. Use a form that people would recognize as a blessing in your language. Alternate translation: “I ask the Lord to give mercy to the household of Onesiphorus” or “I pray that the household of Onesiphorus will have mercy from the Lord”

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / abstractnouns

δῴη ἔλεος ὁ Κύριος

/might/_give mercy the Lord

If your language does not use an abstract noun for the idea of mercy, you could express the same idea in another way. Alternate translation: “May the Lord be merciful”

Note 3 topic: translate-names

Ὀνησιφόρου

˱of˲_Onesiphorus

The word Onesiphorus is the name of a man.

Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / activepassive

τὴν ἅλυσίν μου οὐκ ἐπησχύνθη

the chain ˱of˲_me not (Some words not found in SR-GNT: δῴη ἔλεος ὁ Κύριος τῷ Ὀνησιφόρου οἴκῳ ὅτι πολλάκις με ἀνέψυξεν καὶ τὴν ἅλυσίν μου οὐκ ἐπαισχύνθη)

If your language does not use this passive form, you could express the idea in active form or in another way that is natural in your language. Alternate translation: “my chain did not shame him”

Note 5 topic: figures-of-speech / metonymy

τὴν ἅλυσίν μου

the chain ˱of˲_me

Here, chain represents imprisonment, or being in jail. If it would be helpful in your language, you could use an equivalent expression from your language or state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: “my imprisonment” or “me being in prison”
