OET (OET-LV) Already having_been_satiated you_all_are, already you_all_became_rich, apart_from us you_all_reigned, and I_wish surely you_all_reigned, in_order_that also we with_you_all may_reign_with.
OET (OET-RV) Are you all full already? Have you all already become rich? You think you’re kings already, and don’t need us—I wish you all were really reigning as kings, so we could reign with you,

With these statements, Paul is stating what he thinks the Corinthians would say about themselves. He does not mean that he believes that these things are true. If it would be helpful in your language, you could include some words that clarify that Paul is speaking from the Corinthians’s perspective, such as “it is as if” or “you say.” Alternate translation: “Already it is as if you are satisfied! Already it is as if you have become rich! It is as if you began to reign apart from us” or “Already you say that you are satisfied! Already you say that you have become rich! You say that you have begun to reign apart from us”
Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / metaphor
κεκορεσμένοι ἐστέ
/having_been/_satiated ˱you_all˲_are
Here Paul speaks as if the Corinthians have had more than enough food to eat and beverages to drink. By this, he means that (they think that) they have so many spiritual blessings that there are no more that they can receive. If it would be helpful in your language, you could express the meaning of satisfied with a comparable metaphor or express the idea plainly. Alternate translation: “you are stuffed with blessings” or “you have every spiritual gift”
Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / metaphor
ἐπλουτήσατε
˱you_all˲_became_rich
Here Paul speaks as if the Corinthians have become wealthy people. He speaks in this way to again emphasize that (they think that) they have more spiritual blessings than they need. If it would be helpful in your language, you could express the idea behind the meaning of become richwith a comparable metaphor or plainly. Alternate translation: “you have become fat” or “you have an excess of spiritual gifts”
Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / exclusive
ἡμῶν & ἡμεῖς
us & we
Here, us and we refer to Paul and others who proclaim the gospel. It does not include the Corinthians.
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.
