OET (OET-LV) Greet one_another with a_holy kiss.
Are_greeting you_all the holy ones all.

OET (OET-RV) Greet each other with an innocent kiss.
¶ The believers here send their greetings to all of you.[fn]

13:12 Some translations split this verse into two, so this sentence becomes v13 and our v13 becomes v14.

SIL Open Translator’s Notes:

Section 13:11–14: Final greetings and blessings

This is the final section of the letter. Paul concluded as he did in most of his other letters with closing greetings, some encouragement, and a blessing.

Other examples for this section heading are:

Final Exhortations and Greetings (NET)

Paul gave final encouragement and a blessing

Conclusion (NJB)

13:12–14

There is an issue with verse numbering here:

  1. The verse numbers go to thirteen. For example:

    12Greet one another with the kiss of peace. All of God’s people send you their greetings. 13The grace of the Lord Jesus Christ, the love of God, and the fellowship of the Holy Spirit be with you all. (GNT) (GNT, NJB, NRSV, NABRE, GW, CEV, NET)

  2. The verse numbers go to fourteen. For example:

    12Greet one another with a holy kiss. 13All the saints greet you. 14The grace of the Lord Jesus Christ and the love of God and the fellowship of the Holy Spirit be with you all. (RSV) (BSB, RSV, NIV, NASB, NLT, REB, NCV, ESV, KJV)

It is recommended that you follow option (1).The Greek words are the same in both cases. Robert Estienne added verse numbers to the text in A.D. 1551. Originally, he had 13 verses in this chapter, but the Bishop’s Bible of 1572 had 14 verses here (Furnish, page 583). The KJV follows the verse numbering in the Bishop’s Bible, as did some of the later English versions. But if the common language version follows option (2), you may want to follow that. The Display follows option (2) and the BSB to avoid making the Display complicated and confusing.

13:12

Greet one another with a holy kiss.

Greet one another with a holy kiss: The holy kiss is a greeting. One person kisses another person on the cheek or side of the face, and the other person does the same in return. This kiss is holy because it is a gesture of friendship and unity, and it is done between God’s holy people. Also, since all believers are brothers and sisters in Jesus, the holy kiss does not have any sexual connotations.

If the kiss is not known in your area, or if it is only a gesture of sexual desire, you may want to:

uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: translate-symaction

ἐν ἁγίῳ φιλήματι

with ˓a˒_holy kiss

A holy kiss was a symbolic action to show familial love between believers. In some cultures, a kiss as a greeting is appropriate, but in other cultures it is not appropriate. The idea of a holy kiss is that it be a greeting that is appropriate in the culture, whether it be a kiss, a hug, a handshake, or something else, and also that it be holy, that is, appropriate between God’s people. If this would not be clear to your readers, you can explain the significance of this action in the text or in a footnote. Alternate translation: [warmly, as fellow believers]

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit

οἱ ἅγιοι

the holy_‹ones›

These saints are the fellow believers who are there with Paul. You could include this information if that would be helpful to your readers. Alternate translation: [your fellow believers here]

TSN Tyndale Study Notes:

13:11-14 The letter’s conclusion includes Paul’s final appeal (13:11), greetings (13:12-13), and a blessing (13:14).

OET (OET-LV) Greet one_another with a_holy kiss.
Are_greeting you_all the holy ones all.

OET (OET-RV) Greet each other with an innocent kiss.
¶ The believers here send their greetings to all of you.[fn]

13:12 Some translations split this verse into two, so this sentence becomes v13 and our v13 becomes v14.

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.
