Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit
πλουτιζόμενοι
/being/_made_rich
Here, the phrase being enriched does indicate that the Corinthians have more than enough money and possessions. Paul’s point is that God gives them more than they need so that they can share it with others. If it would be helpful in your language, you could use a word or phrase that refers to people having more than they need or being wealthy. Alternate translation: “being made wealthy” or “being given more than enough”
Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / activepassive
πλουτιζόμενοι
/being/_made_rich
If your language does not use this passive form, you could express the idea in active form or in another way that is natural in your language. Alternate translation: “God enriching you”
Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / abstractnouns
εἰς πᾶσαν ἁπλότητα
to all generosity
If your language does not use an abstract noun for the idea of generosity, you could express the same idea in another way. Alternate translation: “to be very generous” or “to act generously in every way”
Note 4 topic: writing-pronouns
ἥτις
which
The pronoun which refers to generosity. If this is not clear for your readers, you could refer more directly to generosity. Alternate translation: “which generosity”
Note 5 topic: figures-of-speech / abstractnouns
κατεργάζεται & εὐχαριστίαν τῷ Θεῷ
/is/_producing & thanksgiving ¬the ˱to˲_God
If your language does not use an abstract noun for the idea of thanksgiving, you could express the same idea in another way. Alternate translation: “causes thanks to be given to God” or “leads to people thanking God”
Note 6 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit
δι’ ἡμῶν
through us
Here, the phrase through us shows that Paul and his fellow workers are involved in how the generosity leads to thanksgiving. More specifically, they are the ones who collect and send the gifts to fellow believers. If it would be helpful in your language, you could make this idea more explicit. Alternate translation: “through our work” or “by what we do with your gifts”
9:10-14 The Corinthians’ generosity would be matched by God’s generosity (9:10-11). It would also meet the needs of Jewish Christians (9:12), honor God (9:13), show believers in Jerusalem that their Gentile brothers and sisters were genuine believers (9:13), and result in the Jewish believers’ intercessory prayer and affection for the Gentile believers (9:14). Paul envisioned a united, worldwide Christian church, composed of believing Jews and Gentiles who are all one in Christ Jesus (Gal 3:28; Eph 2:11-22), which would become a powerful witness to the Lord’s work of reconciliation.
