OET (OET-LV) But faithful the god is, that the message of_us which to you_all, not is Yes and No.

OET (OET-RV) But our message to you all hasn’t been both ‘yes’ and ‘no’, because God is faithful.

SIL Open Translator’s Notes:

Section 1:12–2:4: Paul’s change in plans

In this section Paul explained that he had earlier planned to visit the Corinthians two times, once on his way to the province of Macedonia and again on his way back from there (1:15–16). But he probably came earlier than planned and had a painful visit (2:1). After he returned to Ephesus, he wrote a painful letter (7:8–9). He then went to Macedonia via Troas (2:12–13) instead of via Corinth. The false teachers probably accused him of not being trustworthy because he had changed his plans. So Paul explained in these verses why he had changed his plans.

Other examples of headings for this section are:

Paul’s Integrity (NASB)

Why Paul changed his plans (NJB)

Paul explained his change of plans

1:18a

But as surely as God is faithful,

as surely as God is faithful: The Greek phrase is literally “God (is) trustworthy that.” This saying is probably an oath. It indicates that 1:18b is true because Paul expected God to agree with Paul here, and God always tells the truth. Other ways to translate this saying are:

as God is always faithful

God is my witness that

God trusts me to say that

God supports me in this:

faithful: This word refers to being trustworthy or dependable. God is faithful to all that he has said. He supported what Paul said in 1:18b. Other ways to translate this word are:

depend on God (GW)

God can be trusted (CEV)

1:18b

our message to you is not “Yes” and “No.”

our message to you is not “Yes” and “No.”: Paul was sure of this and indicated so in 1:18a. In some languages it is more natural to repeat some of the words from 1:18a. For example:

surely our message to you is not “Yes” and “No.”

our message: This phrase refers mostly to the gospel of Jesus but includes other things Paul may have told them. Translate in a way that allows both meanings. For example:

what we say (NJB)

our words

“Yes” and “No”: This phrase has the same meaning as “ ‘Yes, yes’ and ‘no, no’ ” (1:17c), but the words here are not repeated and so are not emphasized. Translate this phrase as you did in 1:17c but without the emphasis.

uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: grammar-connect-words-phrases

ὅτι

that

The connecting words here could indicate: (1) a comparison. Paul may be comparing the faithfulness of God to his own commitment to speak truthfully to the Corinthian believers. Alternate translation: [and in the same way,]; (2) a result. Paul may be saying that he is faithful in his speaking because he is following God’s example to be faithful. Alternate translation: [so, because of that,]

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / metonymy

ὁ λόγος ἡμῶν

¬the the word ˱of˲_us

Paul is using the term our word to refer to any message that he gave to the Corinthians by using words. If it would be helpful in your language, you could state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: [our message]

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / idiom

ναὶ καὶ οὔ

(Some words not found in SR-GNT: πιστός Δέ ὁ Θεός ὅτι ὁ λόγος ἡμῶν ὁ πρός ὑμᾶς οὐκ ἐστίν Ναί καί Οὒ)

Here, “Yes” and “No” represents the speech of a person who says contradictory things. If this phrase does not have that meaning in your language, use an idiom from your language that does have this meaning or state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: [out of both sides of our mouth] or [one thing and then its opposite]
