UST 15-17 15-17Some people are proclaiming the good news about the Messiah because they want to obey God and because they love me and others.

UTN uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / abstractnouns

οἱ δὲ ἐξ ἐριθείας τὸν Χριστὸν καταγγέλλουσιν

the_‹ones› (Some words not found in SR-GNT: οἱ μὲν ἐξ ἀγάπης εἰδότες ὅτι εἰς ἀπολογίαν τοῦ εὐαγγελίου κεῖμαι)

If it would be clearer in your language, you could express the idea behind the abstract noun ambition with a verbal phrase. Alternate translation: “but they proclaim Christ only to make themselves seem important”

οὐχ ἁγνῶς

(Some words not found in SR-GNT: οἱ μὲν ἐξ ἀγάπης εἰδότες ὅτι εἰς ἀπολογίαν τοῦ εὐαγγελίου κεῖμαι)

Alternate translation: “with wrong motives” or “from wrong motives”

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / metonymy

τοῖς δεσμοῖς μου

(Some words not found in SR-GNT: οἱ μὲν ἐξ ἀγάπης εἰδότες ὅτι εἰς ἀπολογίαν τοῦ εὐαγγελίου κεῖμαι)

Paul is referring to his imprisonment by mentioning one part of it: the chains that bound his feet and hands. If this is unclear in your language, you could mention the imprisonment directly. See how you translated the phrase my chains in 1:7 and 1:13. Alternate translation: “because of my imprisonment”

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit

οἰόμενοι θλῖψιν ἐγείρειν τοῖς δεσμοῖς μου

(Some words not found in SR-GNT: οἱ μὲν ἐξ ἀγάπης εἰδότες ὅτι εἰς ἀπολογίαν τοῦ εὐαγγελίου κεῖμαι)

If it would be clearer in your language, you could state how the selfish preachers suppose that they are causing trouble to Paul. You could also start a new sentence here. Alternate translation: “They hope to cause me trouble in my imprisonment by their preaching”
