OET (OET-LV) Until the now hour, both we_are_hungering and we_are_thirsting, and we_are_poorly_clothed, and we_are_being_beaten, and we_are_wandering,
OET (OET-RV) Right up to the present time, we’re hungry and thirsty, we’re poorly clothed and brutally beaten, and we’re homeless
Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / idiom
ἄχρι τῆς ἄρτι ὥρας
until the now hour
In Paul’s culture, the phrase Up to this present hour means that what Paul is about to say has been happening and continues to happen up to the time when he writes this letter. If it would be helpful in your language, you could express this phrase with a comparable idiom or express the idea plainly. Alternate translation: “To this very day” “All the time that we serve Christ,”
Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / exclusive
πεινῶμεν
˱we˲_/are/_hungering
Here, we refers to Paul and the other “apostles.” It does not include the Corinthians.
Note 3 topic: translate-unknown
γυμνιτεύομεν
˱we˲_/are/_poorly_clothed
Here, are poorly clothed means that the clothing is old and worn and barely covers a person’s body. If it would be helpful in your language, you could translate are poorly clothed with a word or phrase that identifies clothing that barely covers a person. Alternate translation: “are clothed in rags”
Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / activepassive
καὶ κολαφιζόμεθα, καὶ
both and and and ˱we˲_/are_being/_beaten and
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 we who are beaten rather than focusing on the people doing the “beating.” If you must state who does the action, you can use a vague or indefinite subject. If you use the following alternate translation, you may need to add a comma before it. Alternate translation: “and people brutally beat us, and we”
Note 5 topic: translate-unknown
ἀστατοῦμεν
˱we˲_/are/_wandering
Here, are homeless means that Paul and the other apostles do not have a permanent residence or a house that they own. It does not mean that they never had a place to stay. If it would be helpful in your language, you could express are homeless with a word or phrase that indicates that Paul and the other apostles do not have a permanent residence. Alternate translation: “do not own homes” or “are always on the move”
4:6-21 Paul again rebukes the Corinthian Christians for their arrogance (4:6-13) and then admonishes them as a father (4:14-21).

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.
