naming of peoples
I´d appreciate your help with these terms.
This is from a book written by Latin American women who live in the US.
For me, personally, I desire to grow as a prophetic leader because it grows my awareness of the Lord’s voice for our times. When Trump called Mexicans drug dealers, criminals, and rapists, and when Clinton called Trump’s followers deplorables, I had to step away from the noise around me and seek the Lord for his voice and interpretation of our times. I sought Scripture that emphasized Immanuel and his naming of peoples to fight the names against my people and the communities outside of my people.
Thank you.

También se podría decir "su forma de llamar/ nombrar a las gentes", pero no lo recomiendo por su ambigüedad.

La construcción "dar nombre" que propone Víctor, no es ambigua. Se puede decir perfectamente "su forma de dar nombre a las gentes"

manera de nombrar las gentes
...y Su manera de nombrar las gentes para luchar contra los nombres que afrentan a mi gente...
Pienso que puede ser "nombrar" pues concuerda bien con la siguiente palabra "nombres".

Y la forma de insultar a otros pueblos para luchar contra los insultos a mi pueblo
and "naming of peoples", given the context, is clearly from "Calling names", which is a long way to say "insulting", so I just simplified it with "insultar".
Now the part that's a bit ambiguous is Immanuel's mention, because the way the sentence is written, it kind of makes it appear as if he's the one insulting other people, but the context makes it a bit clearer, and she seems to have learnt better from Immanuel's scriptures to not fight insults with more insults.
THEREFORE, instead of writing "Y su", which would be the correct way if translating "And his", I opted for an impersonal "y la", "and the".

nombrando/dirigiéndose a (varios/diferentes) grupos de gente
| disagree |
Diego Rivera
: La palabra "gentes" en español es igual de válida que "peoples" en inglés. Simplemente se refiere a "pueblos/etnias/grupos(varios/diferentes) de gente" en plural. No hay ningún error y es lenguaje muy común en la Biblia.

Por otra parte el DLE menciona las siguientes expresiones:
- decir de las gentes
- derecho de gentes
- dicho de las gentes
- don de gentes
- el común de las gentes
- trato de gentes

Algunas de ellas ya las ha aportado Eugenia mientras yo escribía esto.
Levantaré para ellos un vergel de paz, y nunca más serán consumidos de hambre en la tierra, ni cargarán más con la afrenta de las naciones / ni tendrán que soportar la burla de otros pueblos (Ezequiel, 34:29, dos versiones distintas).
El inglés no es muy bueno que digamos, pero la frase "to fight the names against my people" me hace pensar que puede ser "call names", o sea, insultar.
