UTN uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / abstractnouns

πολλή μοι παρρησία πρὸς ὑμᾶς, πολλή μοι καύχησις ὑπὲρ ὑμῶν

great_‹is› ˱to˲_me boldness toward you_all great_‹is› ˱to˲_me boasting for you_all

If your language does not use abstract nouns for the ideas of confidence and boasting, you could express the ideas in another way. Alternate translation: [I am very confident about you; I boast greatly on your behalf]

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit

μοι παρρησία πρὸς ὑμᾶς

˱to˲_me boldness toward you_all

Here Paul could be saying that he: (1) is confident that they follow Christ and do what is right. Alternate translation: [is my confidence that you follow Christ] or [is my confidence that you are doing well] (2) can speak boldly or confidently to them. Alternate translation: [is my boldness in speaking to you]

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / activepassive

πεπλήρωμαι τῇ παρακλήσει

˱I˲_/have_been/_filled ¬the ˱with˲_exhortation

If your language does not use the passive form in this way, you could express the idea in active form or in another way that is natural in your language. If you must state who did the action, Paul implies that the Corinthians did it. Alternate translation: [You have filled me with encouragement]

Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / abstractnouns

τῇ παρακλήσει

¬the ˱with˲_exhortation

If your language does not use an abstract noun for the idea of encouragement, you could express the idea by using a verbal form such as “encourage” or “comfort.” Alternate translation: [how you urge me onward] or [how you comfort me]

Note 5 topic: figures-of-speech / metaphor

ὑπερπερισσεύομαι τῇ χαρᾷ

˱I˲_/am_being/_overflowed ¬the ˱with˲_joy

Here Paul speaks as if he were “overflowing” with joy. He means that he has so much joy that he feels like it has completely filled him up. If it would be helpful in your language, you could use a comparable figure of speech or express the idea plainly. Alternate translation: [I am exceedingly joyful] or [I have so much joy]

Note 6 topic: figures-of-speech / abstractnouns

ὑπερπερισσεύομαι τῇ χαρᾷ

˱I˲_/am_being/_overflowed ¬the ˱with˲_joy

If your language does not use an abstract noun for the idea of joy, you could express the idea by using a verb such as “rejoice” or an adjective such as “joyful.” Alternate translation: [I overflow as I rejoice] or [I overflow with how joyful I am]
