13:10a
Love: This is a noun. It speaks of love in general. Some languages must use a different way to translate this noun. For example:
Loving ⌊others⌋
-or-
To love is to do no wrong…
-or-
When you love ⌊others⌋, you do no wrong
does no wrong: Here the word wrong refers to deeds that are morally wrong. For example, hurting others or stealing is morally wrong. It does not refer to mistakes here (for example, he folded the paper wrong). See how you translated this phrase (“do wrong”) in 13:4b. Remember that the word no is included here.
13:10b
the fulfillment of the law: Here the Greek word that the Berean Standard Bible translates as fulfillment refers to accomplishing what the law demands for us to do, as in the word “fulfilled” in 13:8. See how you translated that word there.
