in the hope of eternal life

The Greek that is translated as “in the hope of eternal life” in English is translated in:

  • Sayula Popoluca: “I serve God because of our life which doesn’t end which we await”
  • Isthmus Mixe: “this is why I am waiting for the life which does not end”
  • Tabasco Chontal: “I work for God because I know I am going to live forever” (source for this and above: John Beekman & Harwood Hess in Notes on Translation, March 1963, p. 1ff.)
