OET (OET-LV)And_if I_may_give_away all the things possessing of_me, and I_may_give_over the body of_me, in_order_that I_may_boast, but love not I_may_be_having, nothing I_am_being_benefited.

OET (OET-RV) Even if I gave everything I have to the poor, and even sacrifice my body so that I could boast, but didn’t love others, it wouldn’t be any use to me.

uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / hypo

κἂν ψωμίσω πάντα τὰ ὑπάρχοντά μου, καὶ ἐὰν παραδῶ τὸ σῶμά μου, ἵνα καυχήσωμαι, ἀγάπην δὲ μὴ ἔχω, οὐδὲν ὠφελοῦμαι

and_if ˱I˲_/may/_give_away all the_‹things› possessing ˱of˲_me and (Some words not found in SR-GNT: κἂν ψωμίσω πάντα τὰ ὑπάρχοντά μου καὶ παραδῶ τὸ σῶμά μου ἵνα καυχήσωμαι ἀγάπην δὲ μὴ ἔχω οὐδὲν ὠφελοῦμαι)

Here, just as in 13:1–2, Paul is using a hypothetical situation to teach the Corinthians. He wants them to imagine that he could give away all his possessions and that he could hand over his body so that he might boast but that he did not have love. He uses himself in this hypothetical situation so that he does not offend the Corinthians by using them as an example of people without love. Use a natural way in your language to introduce a hypothetical situation. Alternate translation: “And suppose that I gave away all my possessions, and suppose that I handed over my body so that I might boast, but also suppose that I did not have love. In that case, I would gain nothing”

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit

παραδῶ τὸ σῶμά μου

˱I˲_/may/_give_over the body ˱of˲_me

Here, hand over my body refers to willingly accepting bodily suffering and even death. If it would be helpful in your language, you could express the idea behind hand over my bodymore explicitly. Alternate translation: “I allow others to hurt my body”

Note 3 topic: translate-textvariants

καυχήσωμαι

˱I˲_/may/_boast

In Paul’s language, I might boast and “I might be burned” look and sound very similar. While many later manuscripts have “I might be burned” here, the earliest manuscripts have I might boast. Unless there is a good reason to translate “I might be burned,” it is best to follow the ULT here and translate I might boast.

Note 4 topic: grammar-connect-logic-result

ἵνα καυχήσωμαι

in_order_that ˱I˲_/may/_boast

Here, so that could introduce: (1) a result that comes from “handing over one’s body.” Alternate translation: “that I might then boast” (2) a purpose of “handing over one’s body.” Alternate translation: “in order that I might boast”

Note 5 topic: figures-of-speech / abstractnouns

ἀγάπην & μὴ ἔχω

love & not ˱I˲_/may_be/_having

If your language does not use an abstract noun for the idea behind love, you can express the idea by using a verb such as “love.” Alternate translation: “I do not love people”

TSN Tyndale Study Notes:

13:3 sacrificed my body, I could boast about it: Some manuscripts read sacrificed my body to be burned; it would have been easy for a copyist to change the text accidentally, because in Greek the two readings differ only by one letter. It is unclear which reading is to be preferred; however, the manuscripts supporting the reading I could boast are generally better.
• I would have gained nothing: Even the most impressive sacrificial acts mean nothing if not motivated by love.
