ὁδοιπορίαις πολλάκις, κινδύνοις
˱in˲_journeys often ˱in˲_dangers
Here, the phrase often in journeys could: (1) give the situation in which all the other dangers occur. Alternate translation: “during my frequent journeys I have been in dangers” (2) be one of the dangerous things Paul is talking about. Alternate translation: “in frequent journeys”
κινδύνοις ποταμῶν, κινδύνοις λῃστῶν, κινδύνοις ἐκ γένους, κινδύνοις ἐξ ἐθνῶν, κινδύνοις ἐν πόλει, κινδύνοις ἐν ἐρημίᾳ, κινδύνοις ἐν θαλάσσῃ, κινδύνοις ἐν ψευδαδέλφοις
˱in˲_dangers ˱of˲_rivers ˱in˲_dangers ˱of˲_robbers ˱in˲_dangers from /my/_race ˱in˲_dangers from /the/_pagans ˱in˲_dangers in /the/_city ˱in˲_dangers in /the/_desert ˱in˲_dangers on /the/_sea ˱in˲_dangers among false_brothers
Here Paul repeats the word dangers to emphasize how much danger he was in all the time. If your readers would misunderstand why Paul repeats himself, and if it would not emphasize danger in your language, you could refer to dangers once and emphasize the danger in another way. Alternate translation: “in frequent dangers from rivers, from robbers, from my own countrymen, from Gentiles, in the city, in the wilderness, at sea, and from false brothers”
Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / abstractnouns
κινδύνοις ποταμῶν, κινδύνοις λῃστῶν, κινδύνοις ἐκ γένους, κινδύνοις ἐξ ἐθνῶν, κινδύνοις ἐν πόλει, κινδύνοις ἐν ἐρημίᾳ, κινδύνοις ἐν θαλάσσῃ, κινδύνοις ἐν ψευδαδέλφοις
˱in˲_dangers ˱of˲_rivers ˱in˲_dangers ˱of˲_robbers ˱in˲_dangers from /my/_race ˱in˲_dangers from /the/_pagans ˱in˲_dangers in /the/_city ˱in˲_dangers in /the/_desert ˱in˲_dangers on /the/_sea ˱in˲_dangers among false_brothers
If your language does not use an abstract noun for the idea of dangers, you could express the same idea in another way. Alternate translation: “being endangered by rivers, being endangered by robbers, being endangered by my own countrymen, being endangered by Gentiles, being endangered in the city, being endangered in the wilderness, being endangered on the sea, being endangered by false brothers”
Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit
γένους
/my/_race
Here Paul refers to other people from his country and nation. These people would be Jewish people. If it would be helpful in your language, you could make the idea more explicit. Alternate translation: “people from my own nation” or “Jews”
Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / metaphor
ψευδαδέλφοις
false_brothers
Paul is using the term false brothers to mean people who pretend to share the same faith. If it would be helpful in your language, you could state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: “false believers” or “people who falsely claim to be believers”
Note 5 topic: figures-of-speech / gendernotations
ψευδαδέλφοις
false_brothers
Although the term brothers is masculine, Paul is using the word in a generic sense that includes both men and women. If it would be helpful in your language, you could use a phrase that makes this clear. Alternate translation: “false brothers and sisters”
11:16-29 Paul plays the part of a boastful fool (see also 12:11-13) so that he may present his true credentials as a suffering apostle. The intruders’ arrogant spirit impels Paul to adopt a style of writing that matches their behavior, all in irony.

Note: The OET-RV is still only a first draft, and so far only a few words have been (mostly automatically) matched to the Hebrew or Greek words that they’re translated from.
