OET interlinear 2TIM 3:12

uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: grammar-connect-words-phrases

καὶ & δὲ

also & and

Here the phrase But also introduces the idea that what has been true for Paul will be true for all true believers. If it would be helpful in your language, you could use a word or phrase that introduces an expansion or further application of an idea. Alternate translation: “In fact” or “Beyond that”

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / activepassive

πάντες & οἱ θέλοντες ζῆν εὐσεβῶς ἐν Χριστῷ Ἰησοῦ διωχθήσονται

all & the_‹ones› wanting /to_be/_living devoutly in Christ Jesus /will_be_being/_persecuted

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. If you need to say who did the action, you could use an indefinite subject. Alternate translation: “people will persecute all the ones wanting to live godly in Christ Jesus”

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / metaphor

ἐν Χριστῷ Ἰησοῦ

in Christ Jesus

Here Paul uses the spatial metaphor in Christ Jesus to describe the union of believers with Christ Jesus. In this case, being in Christ Jesus, or united to Christ Jesus, is how believers live godly. If it would be helpful in your language, you could use a phrase that indicates that believers can live in this way because of their union with Christ Jesus. Alternate translation: “in union with Christ Jesus” or “as those who are united to Christ Jesus”
