Normally the OET discourages the reading of individual ‘verses’, but this view is only designed for doing comparisons of different translations.

5:14 Paul is advising younger widows to remarry—and to marry believers (5:11-12; cp. 2:15).
• not . . . say anything against them: Their actions were hurting their testimony for the Good News (see 1 Thes 4:11-12; Titus 2:8).
Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit
νεωτέρας
/the/_younger_‹women›
Here Paul is referring to the younger widows whom he has been speaking about in 5:11–13. If it would be helpful in your language, you could make that idea more explicit. Alternate translation: [those younger widows]
Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / abstractnouns
μηδεμίαν ἀφορμὴν διδόναι τῷ ἀντικειμένῳ λοιδορίας χάριν
not_one opportunity /to_be/_giving ˱to˲_the_‹one› opposing ˱of˲_insult for_reason_of
If your language does not use an abstract noun for the idea of opportunity, you could express the same idea in another way. Alternate translation: [do nothing that would allow the one opposing to revile]
Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit
λοιδορίας χάριν
˱of˲_insult for_reason_of
Here, the reviling could be directed toward: (1) believers in general. Alternate translation: [for reviling us] (2) just the widows. Alternate translation: [for reviling them]
Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit
τῷ ἀντικειμένῳ
˱to˲_the_‹one› opposing
Here, the phrase the one opposing could refer to: (1) Satan. In this case, Satan probably would use other people to revile believers. Alternate translation: [to the devil] (2) any person who opposes or attacks believers. Alternate translation: [to people who oppose us] or [to enemies of the believers]
