[3:4] 1 tn Grk “a few names”; here ὄνομα (onoma) is used by figurative extension to mean “person” or “people”; according to L&N 9.19 there is “the possible implication of existence or relevance as individuals.”
[3:4] 2 tn Or “soiled” (so NAB, NRSV, NIV); NCV “have kept their clothes unstained”; CEV “have not dirtied your clothes with sin.”
[3:4] 3 tn The word “dressed” is not in the Greek text, but is implied.
[11:13] 4 tn Here καί (kai) has not been translated because of differences between Greek and English style.
