OET (OET-LV) Many things I_was_having to_write to_you, but not I_am_wanting through ink and pen to_you to_be_writing,

OET (OET-RV) I had many things I wanted to write about, but won’t do it by means of ink and pen,

SIL Open Translator’s Notes:

Section 13–14: Final comments

Read 13–14 carefully in both BSB and GNT. Compare the two versions.

Section Theme: These verses contain John’s final comments and greetings to close the letter.

13a

I have many things to write to you,

13b

but I would prefer not to do so with pen and ink.

I would prefer not to do so with pen and ink: (Meaning) As in 2 John 12, this does not mean that there is anything wrong with using pen and ink. John is just saying that he would prefer to talk with Gaius face to face.

pen and ink: (Translation) This is another idiom meaning “in a letter.” In your translation you should consider what is the natural way of saying this in your language.

uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / metonymy

διὰ μέλανος καὶ καλάμου

(Some words not found in SR-GNT: Πολλά εἶχον γράψαι σοί ἀλλʼ οὒ θέλω διά μελανός καί καλάμου σοί γράφειν)

John is using something associated with a letter, the ink and pen he would use to write a letter, to represent the letter itself. If it would be helpful in your language, you could use an equivalent expression or state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation, as in UST: [in a letter]

OET (OET-RV) I had many things I wanted to write about, but won’t do it by means of ink and pen,

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.
