My aim is to raise hopes by pointing the way to life without end. This is the life God promised long ago—and he doesn’t break promises! And then when the time was ripe, he went public with his truth.

UTN uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / metaphor

γνησίῳ τέκνῳ

/my/_genuine child

Though Titus was not Paul’s biological son, they share a common faith in Christ. Paul considers relationship to Christ through faith to be more important than biological relationship. Thus, because of their relative ages and shared faith in Christ, Paul considers Titus as his own son. It may also be that Paul led Titus to faith in Christ, and so Titus is like a son in this spiritual sense. Alternate translation: “like a son to me”

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / abstractnouns

κατὰ κοινὴν πίστιν

according_to /our/_common faith

Paul and Titus both share the same faith in Christ. If your language does not use an abstract noun for the idea of faith, you could express the same idea in another way. Alternate translation: “because we both trust in Jesus Christ”

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / ellipsis

χάρις καὶ εἰρήνη

grace and peace

This was a common greeting Paul used. He is leaving out some of the words that in many languages a sentence would need in order to be complete. You could supply these words if it would be clearer in your language. Alternate translation: “May you experience grace and peace”

Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / abstractnouns

χάρις καὶ εἰρήνη ἀπὸ Θεοῦ Πατρὸς καὶ Χριστοῦ Ἰησοῦ τοῦ Σωτῆρος ἡμῶν

grace and peace from God /the/_Father and Christ Jesus the Savior ˱of˲_us

If your language does not use abstract nouns for the ideas of Grace and peace, you could express the same ideas in another way. Alternate translation: “May God the Father and Christ Jesus our Savior be gracious to you and give you a peaceful spirit”

Χριστοῦ Ἰησοῦ τοῦ Σωτῆρος ἡμῶν

Christ Jesus the Savior ˱of˲_us

Alternate translation: “Christ Jesus who is our Savior”

Note 5 topic: figures-of-speech / exclusive

ἡμῶν

˱of˲_us

Here, our includes Paul, Titus, and all believers.
