TSNTyndale Study Notes:

6:1 Both unbelieving and believing masters should be treated with respect, which will bring honor rather than shame to God’s name (see study note on 5:1–6:2).


UTNuW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / metaphor

ὑπὸ ζυγὸν δοῦλοι

under /a/_yoke slaves

Here Paul speaks of people who work as slaves as though they were working animals with a yoke around their necks. He could mean: (1) that these people truly are slaves and not just workers or servants. Alternate translation: “truly salves” (2) that these slaves work for cruel or strict masters. Alternate translation: “slaves under strict masters”

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / imperative3p

ἡγείσθωσαν

˱them˲_/let_be/_considering

If your language does not use the third-person imperative in this way, you could state this in another way that is natural in your language. Alternate translation: “they must consider”

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / possession

πάσης τιμῆς ἀξίους

˱of˲_all honor worthy

Here, Paul is using the possessive form to describe masters who are worthy to receive all honor. If this is not clear in your language, you could express the idea in another way. Alternate translation: “as deserving all honor” or “as those who should receive all honor”

Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / abstractnouns

πάσης τιμῆς

˱of˲_all honor

If your language does not use an abstract noun for the idea of honor, you could express the same idea in another way. Alternate translation: “of being honored always”

Note 5 topic: figures-of-speech / activepassive

μὴ τὸ ὄνομα τοῦ Θεοῦ καὶ ἡ διδασκαλία βλασφημῆται

not the name ¬the ˱of˲_God and the teaching /may_be_being/_slandered

If your language does not use this passive form, you could express the idea in active form or in another way that is natural in your language. If you need to say who would do the action, it is clear from the context that it would be unbelievers. Alternate translation: “unbelievers may not blaspheme the name of God and the teaching”

Note 6 topic: figures-of-speech / metonymy

τὸ ὄνομα τοῦ Θεοῦ

the name ¬the ˱of˲_God

Here, name represents a person, especially that person’s reputation and nature. If it would be helpful in your language, you could use an equivalent expression from your language or state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: “the reputation of God” or “who God is”
