Normally the OET discourages the reading of individual ‘verses’, but this view is only designed for doing comparisons of different translations.

6:3-10 Paul gives a revealing picture of the hardships of his ministry (cp. 4:7-18). Nine trials are listed; many of these experiences from Paul’s life are recorded in Acts (e.g., Acts 14:5-6, 19-20; 16:19-24; 21:30-36). Through their steadfast suffering for the Good News, Paul and Timothy (2 Cor 1:1) showed that they were true ministers of God.
Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit
διὰ δόξης καὶ ἀτιμίας, διὰ δυσφημίας καὶ εὐφημίας
through glory and dishonor through defamation and good_report
In these two statements, Paul indicates that he and his fellow workers persevere in serving God whether people think and say good things or bad things about them. If it would be helpful in your language, you could use a form that clearly expresses this idea. Alternate translation: “whether we receive honor or dishonor, whether there are bad reports or good reports about us”
Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / abstractnouns
δόξης καὶ ἀτιμίας
glory and dishonor
If your language does not use abstract nouns for the ideas of honor and dishonor, you could express the ideas by using verbs such as “honor” and “dishonor.” Alternate translation: “being honored and dishonored” or “others glorifying us and disgracing us”
Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit
ὡς πλάνοι καὶ ἀληθεῖς
as deceivers and_yet true
Here and in the following two verses Paul uses as to introduce what other people think about him and his fellow workers and then yet to introduce what is really true about them. If it would be helpful in your language, you could use a form that naturally expresses a contrast between what people think and what is actually true. Alternate translation: “considered to be deceivers, but actually true”
Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / nominaladj
ἀληθεῖς
true
Paul is using the adjective true as a noun in order to identify himself and his fellow workers as those who truly are who they say they are. Your language may use adjectives in the same way. If not, you could translate this one with a noun phrase. Alternate translation: “truthful people” or “telling the truth”
