Note 5 topic: figures-of-speech / metaphor

φρουρήσει τὰς καρδίας ὑμῶν καὶ τὰ νοήματα ὑμῶν

/will_be/_guarding the hearts ˱of˲_you_all and the thinking ˱of˲_you_all

The word guard is a military term which refers to a soldier guarding a city or a fortress in order to protect it from enemy attacks. Here Paul presents God’s peace as if it were a soldier who protects hearts and minds from worrying, and so this phrase literally means “will be like a soldier and guard your hearts and minds” or “will be like a soldier standing guard to protect your hearts and minds.” If your readers would not understand this metaphor in this context, you could use an equivalent metaphor from your culture. Alternatively, you could express Paul’s meaning plainly. Alternate translation: “will keep your hearts and minds safe from attacks of worry and fear” or “will keep your hearts and minds safe” or “will protect your hearts and minds”

ἐν Χριστῷ Ἰησοῦ

in Christ Jesus

See how you translated the phrase in Christ Jesus in Philippians 1:1.
