# You are not restrained by us, but you are restrained in your own hearts
Paul speaks of the Corinthians lack of love for him as if their hearts were squeezed into a tight space. Here "heart" is a metonym for a person's emotions. (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-metaphor]] and [[rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-metonymy]])
# You are not restrained by us
This can be stated in active form. AT: "We have not restrained you" or "We have not given you any reason to stop loving us" (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-activepassive]])
# you are restrained in your own hearts
This can be stated in active form. AT: "your own hearts are restraining you" or "you have stopped loving us for your own reasons" (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-activepassive]])
