Note 1 topic: grammar-connect-condition-contrary
εἰ δὲ ἑαυτοὺς διεκρίνομεν
if and ourselves ˱we˲_/were/_distinguishing
Here Paul is making a conditional statement that sounds hypothetical, but he is already convinced that the condition is not true. He has already stated in the last verse that the Corinthians are being judged, which means that we are indeed judged. Use a natural form in your language for introducing a condition that the speaker believes is not true. Alternate translation: [But were we to actually examine ourselves]
Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit
ἑαυτοὺς διεκρίνομεν
ourselves ˱we˲_/were/_distinguishing
Here Paul is speaking about examining ourselves in the context of the Lord’s Supper, as the similarity of this statement to 11:28 shows. If it would be helpful in your language, you could state explicitly that Paul is still speaking about examining in the context of the Lord’s Supper. Alternate translation: [we were examining ourselves at the Lord’s Supper]
Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / activepassive
οὐκ ἂν ἐκρινόμεθα
not ¬wishfully ˱we˲_/were_being/_judged
If your language does not use the passive form in this way, you can express the idea in active form or in another way that is natural in your language. Paul uses the passive form here to focus on those who are judged rather than focusing on the person doing the “judging.” Alternate translation: [God would not judge us]
11:31 Self-judgment (which implies confession of sin and repentance) averts God’s judgment.
Note: The OET-RV is still only a first draft, and so far only a few words have been (mostly automatically) matched to the Hebrew or Greek words that they’re translated from.
