OET interlinear PHP 1:13

uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: grammar-connect-logic-result

ὥστε

so_as

Here, the phrase As a result shows that what follows this phrase is the result of Paul’s circumstances which he began discussing in verse 12, namely, his imprisonment. Consider using a connecting word or phrase that will clearly show that what follows it is the result of Paul’s imprisonment.

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / metonymy

δεσμούς μου

bonds ˱of˲_me

Paul again refers to his imprisonment in a figurative way by using the phrase my chains. See how you translated this phrase in 1:7.

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit

τοὺς δεσμούς μου & ἐν Χριστῷ

the bonds ˱of˲_me & in Christ

Here, the phrase my chains in Christ means that Paul is imprisoned because of his work for the cause of Christ. If it would be clearer in your language, you could state that explicitly. Alternate translation: “my chains for the sake of Christ” or “my chains because I teach people about Christ” or “my chains for the cause of Christ”
