OET interlinear 1COR 11:13

uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / rquestion

ἐν ὑμῖν αὐτοῖς κρίνατε: πρέπον ἐστὶν γυναῖκα ἀκατακάλυπτον, τῷ Θεῷ προσεύχεσθαι?

in you_all yourselves judge befitting ˱it˲_is ˓a˒_woman uncovered ¬the ˱to˲_God ˓to_be˒_praying

Paul does not ask this question because he is looking for information. Rather, he asks it to involve the Corinthians in what he is arguing. The question assumes that the answer is “no, it is not.” If it would be helpful in your language, you could express the idea behind this question with a strong negation. If you do, you may need to include a phrase such as “and you will find” after Judge for your own selves, which by itself introduces a question and not a statement. Alternate translation: [Judge for your own selves, and you will find that it is not proper for a woman to pray to God uncovered.] or [Judge for your own selves whether it is proper for a woman to pray to God uncovered.]

Note 2 topic: translate-unknown

πρέπον

befitting

Here, proper identifies behavior that most people in a culture would agree is “appropriate” or “right” for a certain people or situations. Use a word or phrase that identifies what is “appropriate” or “right” for someone or at some time. Alternate translation: [right for]

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit

ἀκατακάλυπτον

uncovered

Just as in 11:5, uncovered could refer to: (1) not wearing a piece of clothing on the hair and back of the head. Alternate translation: [without a cloth on the head] (2) not putting the hair up in a traditional hairstyle but instead letting it flow freely. Alternate translation: [with her hair unbound]
