UTN uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: writing-symlanguage

ἡ ἐν Βαβυλῶνι συνεκλεκτὴ

the in Babylon chosen_together

She and fellow-elect one here both refer to the group of believers who were with Peter when he wrote this letter. If this might confuse your readers, you could express the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: [This group of believers in Babylon, who are fellow-elect ones]

Note 2 topic: writing-symlanguage

ἐν Βαβυλῶνι

in Babylon

Here, Babylon could mean: (1) the city of Rome. Alternate translation: [in Rome, which is like Babylon] (2) the city of Babylon, as it appears in the ULT. See the discussion of this in the General Notes to this chapter.

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / activepassive

συνεκλεκτὴ

chosen_together

If your language does not use the passive form in this way, you can state this in active form or in another way that is natural in your language. Alternate translation: [one whom God has elected]

ἀσπάζεται

/is/_greeting

As was customary in this culture, Peter concludes the letter by extending greetings from people who are with him and who know the people to whom he is writing. Your language may have a particular way of sharing greetings in a letter. If so, you could use that form here. Alternate translation: [asks to be remembered by] or [says hello to]

Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / metaphor

ὁ υἱός μου

the son ˱of˲_me

Peter refers to Mark as if he were his son, because he taught him about Christianity and loved him like a son. If this might confuse your readers, you could express the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: [the one who is like my son] or [my spiritual son]
