OET interlinear 2COR 10:14

uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: grammar-connect-logic-result

(Occurrence 2) γὰρ

for

Here, the word For introduces Paul’s proof that the “limit” he mentioned in the previous verse does reach as far as the Corinthians (See: 10:13). If it would be helpful in your language, you could use a word or phrase that introduces proof for a previous statement. Alternate translation: “You can tell that is true because” or “Indeed,”

(Occurrence 2) οὐ & ὑπερεκτείνομεν ἑαυτούς

(Some words not found in SR-GNT: οὐ γὰρ ὡς μὴ ἐφικνούμενοι εἰς ὑμᾶς ὑπερεκτείνομεν ἑαυτούς ἄχρι γὰρ καὶ ὑμῶν ἐφθάσαμεν ἐν τῷ εὐαγγελίῳ τοῦ Χριστοῦ)

Here Paul is indicating that he and his fellow workers have not gone beyond the “limit” that he refers to in 10:13. Express the idea so that the link to the previous verse is clear. Alternate translation: “we are not going beyond our limit”

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit

ὡς μὴ ἐφικνούμενοι εἰς ὑμᾶς

as not reaching to you_all

Here Paul refers to what would need to be true if he and his fellow workers were actually overextending themselves. That would be true only if they did not reach or visit the Corinthians. If it would be helpful in your language, you could make this idea more explicit. Alternate translation: “which would only be true if we had not come to you”

Note 4 topic: grammar-connect-words-phrases

(Occurrence 2) γὰρ

for

Here, the word for introduces further evidence or proof for Paul’s claim that he and his fellow workers were not overextending themselves. If it would be helpful in your language, you could use a word or phrase that introduces evidence or proof. Alternate translation: “since in reality” or “because”

(Occurrence 2) ἐφθάσαμεν

(Some words not found in SR-GNT: οὐ γὰρ ὡς μὴ ἐφικνούμενοι εἰς ὑμᾶς ὑπερεκτείνομεν ἑαυτούς ἄχρι γὰρ καὶ ὑμῶν ἐφθάσαμεν ἐν τῷ εὐαγγελίῳ τοῦ Χριστοῦ)

Here, the phrase we came could indicate that: (1) Paul and his fellow workers had already visited the Corinthians. Alternate translation: “we went” (2) Paul and his fellow workers visited the Corinthians before Paul’s opponents visited the Corinthians. Alternate translation: “before anyone else did, we came”
