ἡ δὲ ἐλπὶς οὐ καταισχύνει, ὅτι ἡ ἀγάπη τοῦ Θεοῦ ἐκκέχυται ἐν ταῖς καρδίαις ἡμῶν διὰ Πνεύματος Ἁγίου, τοῦ δοθέντος ἡμῖν

¬the and hope not /is/_disgracing because the love ¬the ˱of˲_God /has_been/_poured_out in the hearts ˱of˲_us through /the/_Spirit Holy the_‹one› /having_been/_given ˱to˲_us

If it would be more natural in your language, you could reverse the order of these clauses, since the second clause gives the reason for the result that the first clause describes. Alternate translation: [And because the love of God has been poured into our hearts through the Holy Spirit, who has been given to us, that hope does not disappoint]

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit

ἡ δὲ ἐλπὶς

¬the and hope

Here, that hope refers to “the hope of the glory of God” in 5:2. If it would be helpful in your language, you could state this explicitly. Alternate translation: [And being confident in God’s glory] or [And the hope of the glory of God]

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / metaphor

ὅτι ἡ ἀγάπη τοῦ Θεοῦ ἐκκέχυται ἐν ταῖς καρδίαις ἡμῶν διὰ Πνεύματος Ἁγίου, τοῦ δοθέντος ἡμῖν

because the love ¬the ˱of˲_God /has_been/_poured_out in the hearts ˱of˲_us through /the/_Spirit Holy the_‹one› /having_been/_given ˱to˲_us

Paul speaks of love as if it were something that could be poured out of a container, and he speaks figurative of our hearts as though they were containers that could be filled. He means that the Holy Spirit has completely revealed to God’s people how much God loves them. If it would be helpful in your language, you could express the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: [because the Holy Spirit, who was given to us, has deeply revealed how much God loves his people]

Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / activepassive

ἡ ἀγάπη τοῦ Θεοῦ ἐκκέχυται ἐν ταῖς καρδίαις ἡμῶν διὰ Πνεύματος Ἁγίου, τοῦ δοθέντος ἡμῖν

¬the the love ¬the ˱of˲_God /has_been/_poured_out in the hearts ˱of˲_us through /the/_Spirit Holy the_‹one› /having_been/_given ˱to˲_us

If your language does not use the passive form in this way, you could express the ideas in active form or in another way that is natural in your language. Alternate translation: [the Holy Spirit, whom God gave us, has poured the love of God into our hearts]

Note 5 topic: figures-of-speech / possession

ἡ ἀγάπη τοῦ Θεοῦ

¬the the love ¬the ˱of˲_God

Paul is using the possessive form to describe how love relates to God. Here, the love of God could refer to: (1) God’s love for us. Alternate translation: [God’s love] or [God’s love for us] (2) our love for God. Alternate translation: [our love for God]

Note 6 topic: figures-of-speech / metonymy

ἐν ταῖς καρδίαις ἡμῶν

in the hearts ˱of˲_us
