SIL Open Translator’s Notes:

Section 16:1–24: Paul gave some final instructions

In this final section of the book, Paul wrote briefly about several topics. He wrote about collecting money for poor Christians in Jerusalem, and he wrote about the travel plans of him and his companions. Then he concluded his letter with some short exhortations, warnings, blessings, and greetings.

Here are some other possible section headings:

The conclusion of the letter

Final topics

Paragraph 16:5–9

In this paragraph Paul wrote about his travel plans. Paul wrote this letter from Ephesus, probably in March or April. He said that he would stay in Ephesus until after Pentecost, which is in late May or early June. Then he would travel through Macedonia to go to Corinth. He planned to stay in Corinth through the winter.

16:5a

After I go through Macedonia, however, I will come to you;

After I go through Macedonia: Macedonia was the name of a Roman province. Today that territory is in northern Greece. Paul wrote this letter from Ephesus. A journey by land from Ephesus to Corinth goes through Macedonia.

Here are some other ways to translate this phrase:

I will travel across Macedonia Province on my way to see you

I will visit you after I visit the people in Macedonia Province

I will come to you: Translate this in a way that is natural for someone who is planning to visit friends. Here is another way to translate this:

I am coming to visit you (NLT)

16:5b

for I will be going through Macedonia.

for I will be going through Macedonia: There are two ways to travel from Ephesus to Corinth. Paul could have gone by boat across the Aegean Sea. Instead he chose to go by land through Macedonia. This was new information to the Corinthians. You should introduce this information in a way that is natural for your language.

Here are some other ways to translate this phrase:

for I do plan to travel through Macedonia Province

for I will be going by that route

uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: grammar-connect-words-phrases

δὲ

(Some words not found in SR-GNT: ἐλεύσομαι Δέ πρός ὑμᾶς ὅταν Μακεδονίαν διέλθω Μακεδονίαν Γάρ διέρχομαι)

Here, But introduces a new topic: Paul’s own travel plans. It does not introduce a contrast with the previous verse. If it would be helpful in your language, you could express But with a word or phrase that introduces a new topic, or you could leave it untranslated. Alternate translation: [Now]

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / go

ἐλεύσομαι & πρὸς ὑμᾶς

˱I˲_˓will_be˒_coming & (Some words not found in SR-GNT: ἐλεύσομαι Δέ πρός ὑμᾶς ὅταν Μακεδονίαν διέλθω Μακεδονίαν Γάρ διέρχομαι)

Here Paul is speaking about his plan to visit the Corinthians at some point. Use a form in your language that indicates future travel plans to visit someone. Alternate translation: [I will arrive where you live]

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / go

διέλθω & διέρχομαι

˱I˲_˓may˒_pass_through & ˱I˲_˓am˒_passing_through

Here, passed through and going through refer to entering and then exiting an area while one is traveling. Use a form in your language that refers to this kind of movement. Alternate translation: [I have entered and then left … I am entering and then leaving]

Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / pastforfuture

διέρχομαι

˱I˲_˓am˒_passing_through

Here Paul speaks as if he were going through Macedonia while he writes this letter. He speaks in this way because it is his current plan to go through Macedonia when he leaves Ephesus. If it would be helpful in your language, you could express why Paul speaks in the present tense here with whatever tense is customarily used to speak about travel plans in your language. Alternate translation: [I will go through]
