Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / metonymy
τὰ κρυπτὰ τῆς καρδίας αὐτοῦ
the secrets ˱of˲_the heart ˱of˲_him
In Paul’s culture, the heart is the place where humans think and plan. If it would be helpful in your language, you could translate heart as the place where humans think in your culture, or express the idea plainly. Alternate translation: “the secrets of his mind” or “his secret thoughts”
Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / metaphor
τὰ κρυπτὰ τῆς καρδίας αὐτοῦ φανερὰ γίνεται
the secrets ˱of˲_the heart ˱of˲_him manifest /is/_becoming
Here Paul speaks as if the secrets of his heart were invisible objects that could become visible. He speaks in this way to indicate that others now know the secrets as much as if they saw them become visible. If it would be helpful in your language, you could express this figure of speech with a comparable metaphor or express the idea plainly. Alternate translation: “the secrets of his heart become known” or “the secrets of his heart are revealed”
Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / idiom
πεσὼν ἐπὶ πρόσωπον
/having/_fallen on /his/_face
In Paul’s culture, “falling” on one’s face refers to kneeling down and putting one’s face close to the ground. This was a position used to show respect and sometimes worship. If it would be helpful in your language, you could express having fallen on his face with a comparable expression for a physical position used to show respect or worship, or you could express the idea plainly. Alternate translation: “having bowed down” or “kneeling to show respect”
Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / gendernotations
αὐτοῦ & πρόσωπον, προσκυνήσει
˱of˲_him & /his/_face ˱he˲_/will_be/_prostrating
Although his and he are masculine, Paul is using them to refer to anyone, whether man or woman. If it would be helpful in your language, you could express his and he with non gendered words or refer to both genders. Alternate translation: “his or her … his or her face, he or she will worship”
Note 5 topic: figures-of-speech / quotations
ἀπαγγέλλων, ὅτι ὄντως ὁ Θεὸς ἐν ὑμῖν ἐστιν
reporting ¬that really ¬the God among you_all is
If you do not use this form in your language, you could translate this statement as an indirect quote instead of as a direct quote. Alternate translation: “declaring that God is really among you”
OET (OET-LV) the secrets of_the heart of_him manifest is_becoming, and thus having_fallen on ^his_face, he_will_be_prostrating the before_god reporting, that Really the god among you_all is.
OET (OET-RV) The prophecies would expose the secrets of their hearts, so then they’d bow down and worship God, and exclaim, “God is really here among you all!”
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.
