OET interlinear 2 COR 13:10

uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: writing-pronouns

διὰ τοῦτο

(Some words not found in SR-GNT: Διά τοῦτο ταῦτα ἀπών γράφω ἵνα παρών μή ἀποτόμως χρήσωμαι κατά τήν ἐξουσίαν ἥν ὁ Κύριος ἔδωκεν μοί εἰς οἰκοδομήν καί οὐκ εἰς καθαίρεσιν)

The pronoun this refers to what Paul has just written in verse 9, that he wants the Corinthian believers to be restored to a right relationship with God. If this is not clear for your readers, you could repeat that information here. Alternate translation: [Because I want you to be restored to God]

Note 2 topic: writing-pronouns

ταῦτα

these_‹things›

The words these things refer to what Paul has written in the entire letter, but especially to the warnings and exhortations in chapters 10-13. If this is not clear for your readers, you could include that information here. Alternate translation: [the things in this letter]

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / abstractnouns

κατὰ τὴν ἐξουσίαν ἣν ὁ Κύριος ἔδωκέν μοι

(Some words not found in SR-GNT: Διά τοῦτο ταῦτα ἀπών γράφω ἵνα παρών μή ἀποτόμως χρήσωμαι κατά τήν ἐξουσίαν ἥν ὁ Κύριος ἔδωκεν μοί εἰς οἰκοδομήν καί οὐκ εἰς καθαίρεσιν)

If your language does not use an abstract noun for the idea of authority, you could express the same idea in another way. Alternate translation: [as the person that the Lord has authorized]

Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / metaphor

εἰς οἰκοδομὴν καὶ οὐκ εἰς καθαίρεσιν.

for for (Some words not found in SR-GNT: Διά τοῦτο ταῦτα ἀπών γράφω ἵνα παρών μή ἀποτόμως χρήσωμαι κατά τήν ἐξουσίαν ἥν ὁ Κύριος ἔδωκεν μοί εἰς οἰκοδομήν καί οὐκ εἰς καθαίρεσιν)

Here, Paul is speaking of the Corinthian believers as if they were a building. If it would be clearer in your language, you could use a more natural metaphor for this or you could state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: [to help you become more faithful to Christ and not to make you want to forsake him]
