12.8 Qui miseretur. Hæc miseratio est quotidiana medicina quotidianis vulneribus etsi levioribus; tamen judicium sine misericordia fiet ei qui non facit misericordiam Jac. 2., et hoc utique justum est ut dimittatur dimittenti et detur danti. Quisquis vero quasi nimis justus et securus judicium exspectat sine misericordia, sibi iram provocat. Misericordia hæc multiplex est, scilicet peccanti ignoscere, oppresso subvenire, etc.; et ideo subdit de misericordia ponendo unum ejus membrum cum præmissum sit aliud membrum, ubi autem qui tribuit, in simplicitate. Simplicitas excludit hypocrisim, hilaritas gaudium ostendit, et fretum spe futuri.

UTNuW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / ellipsis

εἴτε ὁ παρακαλῶν, ἐν τῇ παρακλήσει; ὁ μεταδιδοὺς, ἐν ἁπλότητι; ὁ προϊστάμενος, ἐν σπουδῇ; ὁ ἐλεῶν, ἐν ἱλαρότητι

or the_‹one› exhorting in the exhortation the_‹one› sharing in generosity the_‹one› leading with earnestness the_‹one› showing_mercy with cheerfulness

Paul is leaving out some of the words that clauses would need in many languages to be complete. If it would be helpful in your language, you could supply these words from the previous verse. Alternate translation: “if God has given someone the gift of encouraging, then that person must use that gift for encouraging; if God has given someone the gift of giving, then that person must use that gift for generosity; if God has given someone the gift of leading, then that person must use that gift with diligence; if God has given someone the gift of showing mercy, then that person must use that gift with cheerfulness”

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / abstractnouns

ἐν τῇ παρακλήσει & ἐν ἁπλότητι & ἐν σπουδῇ & ἐν ἱλαρότητι

in the exhortation & in generosity & with earnestness & with cheerfulness

If your language does not use abstract nouns for the ideas of encouragement, generosity, diligence, and cheerfulness, you could express the same ideas in another way. Alternate translation: “by encouraging others … generously … diligently … cheerfully”
