UTN uW Translation Notes:

μὴ παροργίζετε τὰ τέκνα ὑμῶν

not /be/_angering the children ˱of˲_you_all

Alternate translation: [do not make your children angry] or [do not cause your children to be angry]

Note 1 topic: grammar-connect-logic-contrast

ἀλλὰ

but

The connecting word Instead introduces a contrast relationship. Fathers provoking their children to anger is in contrast to raising their children in discipline and instruction.

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / abstractnouns

ἐκτρέφετε αὐτὰ ἐν παιδείᾳ καὶ νουθεσίᾳ Κυρίου

/be/_nurturing them in /the/_discipline and admonition ˱of˲_/the/_Lord

If your language does not use an abstract noun for the idea behind the words discipline and instruction, you could express the same ideas with verbal forms. Alternate translation: [teach them to become adults by making sure that they know and do what the Lord wants them to do]
