UTN uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / possession

δύναμιν πυρός

/the/_power ˱of˲_fire

Here the author uses the possessive form to describe fire that has power. If it would be helpful in your language, you could express the idea without using a possessive form. Alternate translation: “fire that has power”

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / abstractnouns

δύναμιν πυρός

/the/_power ˱of˲_fire

If your language does not use an abstract noun for the idea of power, you could express the idea by using an adjective such as “powerful.” Alternate translation: “powerful fire”

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / personification

ἔφυγον στόματα μαχαίρης

escaped /the/_mouths ˱of˲_/the/_sword

Here, the phrase the mouth of the sword refers to how the sword destroys people as if it ate them up with a mouth. The expression refers to someone killing someone else with a sword. If it would be helpful in your language, you could use a comparable figure of speech or express the idea plainly. Alternate translation: “escaped violent death” or “survived someone trying to kill them”

Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / activepassive

ἐδυναμώθησαν ἀπὸ ἀσθενείας

/were/_enabled from weakness

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. The author uses the passive form here to focus on those who were empowered rather than on the person doing the empowering. If you must state who did the action, the author implies that God did it. Alternate translation: “received empowering from God out of weakness” or “became powerful out of weakness”

Note 5 topic: figures-of-speech / abstractnouns

ἀπὸ ἀσθενείας

from weakness

If your language does not use an abstract noun for the idea of weakness, you could express the idea by using an adjective such as “weak.” Alternate translation: “out of being weak”
