UTN uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit

ὑμεῖς

you_all

Here John turns from talking about people in general to giving direct instruction to his readers. He indicates this emphasis by beginning his instruction with You. Use a natural way to indicate this emphasis in your language. Alternate translation: [As for you]

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit

ὃ ἠκούσατε & ὃ & ἠκούσατε

what ˱you_all˲_heard & what & ˱you_all˲_heard

John is referring implicitly to the teaching about Jesus that these believers have heard. Alternate translation: [the teaching you have heard … the teaching you have heard]

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / idiom

(Occurrence -1) ἀπ’ ἀρχῆς

(Some words not found in SR-GNT: ὑμεῖς ὃ ἠκούσατε ἀπʼ ἀρχῆς ἐν ὑμῖν μενέτω ἐὰν ἐν ὑμῖν μείνῃ ὃ ἀπʼ ἀρχῆς ἠκούσατε καὶ ὑμεῖς ἐν τῷ Υἱῷ καὶ ἐν τῷ Πατρὶ μενεῖτε)

John uses the phrase from the beginning in various ways in this letter. Here it refers to the time when the people to whom he is writing first believed in Jesus. Alternate translation: [ever since you first believed in Jesus … ever since you first believed in Jesus]

Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / metaphor

ἐν ὑμῖν μενέτω & ἐν ὑμῖν μείνῃ

in you_all ˱it˲_/let_be/_remaining & in you_all ˱it˲_/may/_remain

See the discussion of the term “remain” in Part 3 of the Introduction to 1 John. In these instances, in reference to the teaching about Jesus, the word seems to refer to continuing belief in that teaching. Alternate translation: [continue to believe … you continue to believe]

Note 5 topic: grammar-connect-condition-hypothetical

ἐὰν ἐν ὑμῖν μείνῃ ὃ ἀπ’ ἀρχῆς ἠκούσατε, καὶ ὑμεῖς ἐν τῷ Υἱῷ καὶ ἐν τῷ Πατρὶ μενεῖτε

if in you_all ˱it˲_/may/_remain what from /the/_beginning ˱you_all˲_heard also you_all in the Son and in the Father /will_be/_remaining

John is describing a conditional situation in order to reassure his readers. Alternate translation: [As long as what you have heard from the beginning remains in you, then you will also remain in the Son and in the Father]

Note 6 topic: figures-of-speech / metaphor

καὶ ὑμεῖς ἐν τῷ Υἱῷ καὶ ἐν τῷ Πατρὶ μενεῖτε

also you_all in the Son and in the Father /will_be/_remaining

See the discussion of the term “remain” in Part 3 of the Introduction to 1 John. In this instance, it seems to mean the same thing as in 2:6. See how you translated it there. Alternate translation: [you will also continue to have a close relationship with the Son and with the Father]

Note 7 topic: guidelines-sonofgodprinciples

τῷ Υἱῷ & τῷ Πατρὶ

the Son & the Father

Son and Father are important titles for Jesus and God, respectively. Alternate translation: [Jesus the Son of God … God the Father]
