OET (OET-LV) And with_this the confidence I_was_wishing previously, to you_all to_come, in_order_that a_second grace you_all_may_have,
OET (OET-RV) Because of my confidence in that, I had wanted to visit you all so that you’d have a second taste of grace,
Note 1 topic: writing-pronouns
ταύτῃ τῇ πεποιθήσει
˱with˲_this ¬the confidence
The word this refers to what Paul has just said in verses 13 and 14. Paul was confident that the Corinthians would understand him and that they would be proud of him (very pleased with him). If it would be helpful in your language, you could make the reference clear. Alternate translation: “being confident that you were proud of me”
Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / abstractnouns
ταύτῃ τῇ πεποιθήσει
˱with˲_this ¬the confidence
If your language does not use an abstract noun for the idea of confidence, you could express the same idea in another way. Alternate translation: “being confident of this”
Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit
πρότερον
previously
Here, before could mean: (1) Paul intended to visit the Corinthians before going to Macedonia. Alternate translation: “before going to Macedonia” or (2) Paul intended to visit the Corinthians before he changed his plans. Alternate translation: “originally” or “at first”
Note 4 topic: grammar-connect-logic-goal
ἵνα
in_order_that
The connecting words so that introduce a goal or purpose relationship. The purpose for Paul’s plan of two visits was to give the Corinthians two times of grace or blessings. Use a connector in your language that makes it clear that this is the purpose.
δευτέραν χάριν σχῆτε
/a/_second grace ˱you_all˲_/may/_have
The word translated as grace here can mean more specifically “gift” or “benefit” or “blessing.” Alternate translation: “you might benefit from me visiting you twice”
1:15–2:2 Paul had changed his travel plan. In 1 Cor 16:5, he expressed the hope of visiting Corinth after passing through Macedonia. Then he evidently promised to visit Corinth earlier (perhaps in his “severe letter,” 2 Cor 7:8)—on his way north. Now he would have to go back to the original plan, and that earlier visit, bringing a double blessing, would not be happening after all.

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