UTN uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: grammar-connect-words-phrases

γὰρ

for

Here, the word translated For connects this verse to the one before it as an explanation. If the connection between this statement and the previous one is not clear, you may want to use a similar connecting word here. Alternate translation: “You see,”

Note 2 topic: guidelines-sonofgodprinciples

ὁ τοῦ Θεοῦ & Υἱὸς

the ¬the ˱of˲_God & Son

Son of God is an important title for Jesus that describes his relationship to God.

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / activepassive

ὁ ἐν ὑμῖν δι’ ἡμῶν κηρυχθείς, δι’ ἐμοῦ, καὶ Σιλουανοῦ, καὶ Τιμοθέου

the who among you_all by us /having_been/_proclaimed by me and Silvanus and Timothy

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 use this alternate translation, you should delete the dash that follows it. Alternate translation: “the one whom I and Silvanus and Timothy proclaimed among you,”

Note 4 topic: translate-names

Σιλουανοῦ

Silvanus

The word Silvanus is the name of the man who is called “Silas” in the book of Acts and who was a leader in the early church. You may want to use one spelling here and put the other spelling in a footnote.

Note 5 topic: figures-of-speech / idiom

ναὶ καὶ οὒ, ἀλλὰ ναὶ ἐν αὐτῷ γέγονεν

yes and no but yes in him /has/_become

Here, the phrase combining “Yes” and “No” represents a person who is unreliable. If this phrase does not have that meaning in your language, use an idiom from your language that does have this meaning or state the meaning plainly. See how you translated this in verse 18. Alternate translation: “wishy-washy, but, as we said, a rock” or “unreliable, but we consistently showed you that he is trustworthy”

Note 6 topic: writing-pronouns

ἀλλὰ ναὶ ἐν αὐτῷ γέγονεν

but yes in him /has/_become

Here, the subject of the verb has been, represented by it, could refer to: (1) the proclamation of Paul, Silvanus, and Timothy. Alternate translation: “but our proclamation has been ‘Yes’ in him” (2) Jesus. In this case, in him would be translated as “in it,” referring to the proclamation. Alternate translation: “but he has been ‘Yes’ in it” or “but Jesus has been ‘Yes’ in our proclamation” (3) reality in general. Alternate translation: “but it has always been the case that there has been ‘Yes’ in him”
