Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / personification
δεσμὰ καὶ θλίψεις με μένουσιν
bonds and tribulations me /are/_remaining
Luke is speaking as if these chains and sufferings were living things that were waiting for Paul in Jerusalem. If it would be helpful in your language, you could state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: “I will experience chains and afflictions when I get there”
Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / synecdoche
δεσμὰ
bonds
Paul is using one aspect of imprisonment, the chains that bound prisoners at this time, to mean the entire experience of being imprisoned. If it would be helpful in your language, you could use an equivalent expression from your culture or state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: “imprisonment”
