UTNuW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / abstractnouns

ἀκούσαντες τὴν πίστιν ὑμῶν

/having/_heard the faith ˱of˲_you_all

If your language does not use an abstract noun for the idea behind the word faith, you could express the idea behind this abstract noun in another way. Alternate translation: “having heard that you are trusting”

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / abstractnouns

τὴν ἀγάπην ἣν ἔχετε εἰς πάντας τοὺς ἁγίους,

the the love that ˱you_all˲_/are/_having toward all the holy_‹ones›

If your language does not use an abstract noun for the idea behind the word love, you could express the same idea with a verbal form. Alternate translation: “how much you love all the saints”
