OET (OET-LV) Therefore it_let_be known, to_you_all, men, brothers, that through this one, forgiveness of_sins is_being_proclaimed to_you_all, and from all things of_which you_all_were_ not _able to_be_justified in the_law of_Mōsaʸs/(Mosheh),
OET (OET-RV) So brothers, let it be known to you all that your sins can now be forgiven through this Yeshua—the law of Mosheh was never able to offer you that.
Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / imperative3p
γνωστὸν & ἔστω ὑμῖν
known & ˱it˲_let_be ˱to˲_you_all
If your language does not use the third-person imperative in this way, you could state this in another way that is natural in your language. Alternate translation: “may it be known to you” or “you should know”
Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / idiom
ἄνδρες, ἀδελφοί
men brothers
This is an idiomatic form of address. Use a way that is natural in your language to refer to a particular group of people. Alternate translation: “my brothers”
Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / metaphor
ἀδελφοί
brothers
Paul is using the term brothers to mean people who share the same faith. He is addressing the people in the synagogue who are his fellow-Jews and followers of Judaism. They are not Christian believers at this point. He may also be using the word brothers as a term of friendship for the Gentiles who are present. Alternate translation, as in UST: “my fellow Israelites and other friends”
Note 4 topic: writing-pronouns
τούτου
this_‹one›
The demonstrative pronoun this one refers to Jesus. Alternate translation: “Jesus”
Note 5 topic: figures-of-speech / activepassive
ὑμῖν ἄφεσις ἁμαρτιῶν καταγγέλλεται, καὶ
˱to˲_you_all ˱to˲_you_all forgiveness ˱of˲_sins /is_being/_proclaimed and
If your language does not use this passive form, you could express the idea in active form or in another way that is natural in your language. Alternate translation: “we are proclaiming forgiveness of sins to you”
Note 6 topic: figures-of-speech / ellipsis
ὑμῖν ἄφεσις ἁμαρτιῶν καταγγέλλεται, καὶ ἀπὸ πάντων
˱to˲_you_all ˱to˲_you_all forgiveness ˱of˲_sins /is_being/_proclaimed and from all_‹things›
Paul is leaving out some of the words that in many languages a sentence would need in order to be complete. You can supply these words from the context. Alternate translation: “release of sins is proclaimed to you, and release is also proclaimed to you from the guilt of everything”
Note 7 topic: figures-of-speech / activepassive
πάντων ὧν οὐκ ἠδυνήθητε ἐν νόμῳ Μωϋσέως δικαιωθῆναι
all_‹things› ˱of˲_which not ˱you_all˲_/were/_able in /the/_law ˱of˲_Moses /to_be/_justified
If your language does not use this passive form, you could express the idea in active form or in another way that is natural in your language. Alternate translation: “everything that you were not able to do in obedience to the law of Moses”
13:16-41 Paul accepted the invitation, motioned to quiet his audience (cp. 19:33; 21:40), and launched into a straightforward proclamation of the Good News. This is Paul’s first great speech in Acts, and it provides a model of his preaching to a Jewish audience (see 22:1-21).
OET (OET-LV) Therefore it_let_be known, to_you_all, men, brothers, that through this one, forgiveness of_sins is_being_proclaimed to_you_all, and from all things of_which you_all_were_ not _able to_be_justified in the_law of_Mōsaʸs/(Mosheh),
OET (OET-RV) So brothers, let it be known to you all that your sins can now be forgiven through this Yeshua—the law of Mosheh was never able to offer you that.
Note: The OET-RV is still only a first draft, and so far only a few words have been (mostly automatically) matched to the Greek words that they’re translated from.
