UTN uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / activepassive

καὶ τότε ἀποκαλυφθήσεται ὁ ἄνομος

and then /will_be_being/_revealed the lawless_‹one›

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: “and then God will allow the lawless one to show himself”

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / metonymy

τῷ πνεύματι τοῦ στόματος αὐτοῦ

˱with˲_the spirit ˱of˲_the mouth ˱of˲_him

In this figure of speech, breath represents the power of God and mouth represents the spoken word of Jesus. If your readers would not understand this, you could use an equivalent expression or plain language. Alternate translation: “by the power of his spoken word”

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / parallelism

ἀνελεῖ τῷ πνεύματι τοῦ στόματος αὐτοῦ, καὶ καταργήσει τῇ ἐπιφανείᾳ τῆς παρουσίας αὐτοῦ

/will_be/_killing ˱with˲_the spirit ˱of˲_the mouth ˱of˲_him and /will_be/_nullifying ˱by˲_the appearing ˱of˲_the coming ˱of˲_him

These two phrases describe the same event. Paul says the same thing twice, in slightly different ways, to emphasize how much more powerful Jesus is than the man of lawlessness. If it is confusing for your readers to talk about killing someone and then bringing him to nothing, you could reverse the order of the phrases, as in the UST, or you can combine the phrases into one. Alternate translation: “will destroy by his glorious appearance and with the breath of his mouth”
