OET interlinear 1COR 6:8

uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: grammar-connect-logic-contrast

ἀλλὰ

but

Here, But introduces a contrast with what Paul wants them to do, which is to “be wronged” and “cheated” rather than take a fellow believer to court. Here Paul says that they do the exact opposite. Rather than “be wronged” and “cheated,” they actually wrong and cheat fellow believers. If it would be helpful in your language, you could express the idea behind this connection with a phrase that clarifies what Paul is contrasting. Alternate translation: “But instead of being wronged and cheated,”

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / ellipsis

καὶ τοῦτο ἀδελφούς

and and this ˱to˲_/your/_brothers

In this clause, Paul has omitted some words that might be necessary to make a complete thought in your language. If your language needs these words, you could include what action is happening. Alternate translation: “and you do this to your brothers”

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / gendernotations

ἀδελφούς

˱to˲_/your/_brothers

Although brothers is masculine, Paul is using this word to refer to any believer, whether man or woman. If it would be helpful in your language, you could express brothers with a non gendered word or refer to both genders. Alternate translation: “to your brothers and sisters”
