OET interlinear 2COR 1:7

uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: grammar-connect-logic-result

καὶ ἡ ἐλπὶς ἡμῶν βεβαία ὑπὲρ ὑμῶν, εἰδότες ὅτι ὡς κοινωνοί ἐστε τῶν παθημάτων, οὕτως καὶ τῆς παρακλήσεως

and the hope ˱of˲_us confirmed for you_all /having/_known that as partners ˱you_all˲_are ˱of˲_the sufferings thus also ˱of˲_the comfort

If it would be more natural in your language, you could reverse the order of these phrases, since the second phrase gives the reason for the result that the first phrase describes. Alternate translation: “Because we know that you share in God’s comfort just as much as in the suffering, our hope concerning you is firm”

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / abstractnouns

καὶ ἡ ἐλπὶς ἡμῶν βεβαία ὑπὲρ ὑμῶν

and the hope ˱of˲_us confirmed for you_all

If your language does not use an abstract noun for the idea of hope, you could express the same idea in another way. Alternate translation: “And we firmly believe that you will endure”

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit

καὶ ἡ ἐλπὶς ἡμῶν βεβαία ὑπὲρ ὑμῶν

and the hope ˱of˲_us confirmed for you_all

If your language requires you to specify the content of Paul’s hope, you could include this information. Alternate translation: “And our hope that you will remain faithful to Jesus is firm”

Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / abstractnouns

οὕτως καὶ τῆς παρακλήσεως

thus also ˱of˲_the comfort

If your language does not use an abstract noun for the idea of comfort, you could express the same idea in another way. See how you translated this word in verses 5 and 6. Alternate translation: “God will also comfort you”

Note 5 topic: figures-of-speech / ellipsis

οὕτως καὶ τῆς παρακλήσεως

thus also ˱of˲_the comfort

Paul is leaving out some of the words that in many languages a sentence would need in order to be complete. You can supply these words from earlier in the sentence if it would be clearer in your language. Alternate translation: “in the same way, you are partakers also of the comfort”
