OET (OET-LV) Not pushed_away the god the people of_him, whom he_foreknew.
Or not you_all_have_known in Aʸlias/(ʼĒliyyāh) what is_saying the scripture, how he_is_pleading the with_god against the Israaʸl/(Yisrāʼēl)?

OET (OET-RV) No, God didn’t push away his people that he knew before he chose them. Or don’t you know what Eliyah wrote when he pleaded with God to deal with Yisrael:

SIL Open Translator’s Notes:

Section 11:1–10: God has not rejected the Jews

In this section Paul, using a rhetorical question, said that God had certainly not rejected his chosen people, the Jews. Then he spoke of several ways that showed that God has not rejected them. Paul spoke again of God’s grace being the basis for him choosing who will be his people. The basis is not what people do.

Then Paul explained why only some Jews have accepted Jesus as the Christ/Messiah. God caused some of them to reject Christ for his own purposes (which was so that many non-Jews would believe in Jesus (11:12)).

Here are other possible headings for this section:

God has kept a remnant of Jews as his people

At this time, in grace, God has chosen some Israelites/Jews

11:2a

God did not reject His people, whom He foreknew.

God did not reject His people: This repeats the thought in 11:1a but in a statement rather than a question. Here the word not is explicit.

His people, whom He foreknew: The clause whom He foreknew further describes His people. It does not separate some of his people from other of his people. For the correct meaning in some languages, translators must avoid the word whom. For example:

his people. He foreknew them.

his people, indeed, he foreknew them

foreknew: This word refers to knowing about something before it exists or before it happens. Here it also implies that God chose Israel as his people before they existed.Moo (page 674) says, “the ‘know” in the verb ‘foreknow’ refers to God’s election…. The temporal prefix, ‘fore-’ (pro-), indicates further that God’s choosing of Israel took place before any action or status on the part of Israel that might have qualified her for God’s choice.” Schreiner (page 580) says that the word “does not merely connote foreknowledge but also implies foreordination.” For example:

chose from the very beginning (NLT)

See how you translated this word in 8:29.

11:2b–c

Do you not know what the Scripture says about Elijah, how he appealed to God against Israel: This is a rhetorical question. It emphasizes that the believers in Rome should know what the Scripture says about what Elijah said against Israel (11:3) and God’s reply (11:4). Translate with that meaning. This question is not a rebuke. Here are some ways:

Paul here only questioned their knowledge. He did not question what Elijah said to God. For example:

Do you realize what the Scriptures say about this? Elijah the prophet appealed to God about the people of Israel and said, (NLT)

11:2b

Do you not know what the Scripture says about Elijah,

the Scripture: This is more literally “the writing.” But in the New Testament this word is always used for all or part of God’s Holy written Word. At the time only Genesis to Malachi, what Christians now call the Old Testament, was called Scripture.

Elijah: Elijah was a prophet of God. Scripture talks about him in 1 Kings 17 – 2 Kings 2.

11:2c

how he appealed to God against Israel:

appealed to God against Israel: The Greek word that the BSB translates as appealed here refers to Elijah accusing Israel of wrongdoing.Jewett (page 655). Here are other ways to translate this word:

complained to God about the people of Israel (NLT)

blamed Israel before God

(Some words not found in SR-GNT: Οὐκ ἀπώσατο ὁ Θεός τόν λαόν αὐτοῦ ὅν προέγνω Ἤ οὐκ οἴδατε ἐν Ἠλίᾳ τί λέγει ἡ Γραφή ὡς ἐντυγχάνει τῷ Θεῷ κατά τοῦ Ἰσραήλ)

This phrase gives further information about God’s people. If it might be helpful in your language, you could make the relationship between these phrases clearer. Alternate translation: [the people whom he foreknew]

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit

Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / rquestion

ἢ οὐκ οἴδατε ἐν Ἠλείᾳ τί λέγει ἡ Γραφή, ὡς ἐντυγχάνει τῷ Θεῷ κατὰ τοῦ Ἰσραήλ?

Paul is not asking for information, but is using the question form here to emphasize the truth of what he is saying. If you would not use a rhetorical question for this purpose in your language, you could translate his words as a statement or an exclamation and communicate the emphasis in another way. Alternate translation: [And surely you know what the scripture says about Elijah, how he pleads with God against Israel!]

Note 5 topic: writing-quotations

ἢ οὐκ οἴδατε ἐν Ἠλείᾳ τί λέγει ἡ Γραφή, ὡς ἐντυγχάνει τῷ Θεῷ κατὰ τοῦ Ἰσραήλ?

(Some words not found in SR-GNT: Οὐκ ἀπώσατο ὁ Θεός τόν λαόν αὐτοῦ ὅν προέγνω Ἤ οὐκ οἴδατε ἐν Ἠλίᾳ τί λέγει ἡ Γραφή ὡς ἐντυγχάνει τῷ Θεῷ κατά τοῦ Ἰσραήλ)

This sentence indicates that what follows in the next verse is a quotation from an Old Testament book ([1 Kings 19:10](../1ki/19/10.md), [14](../1ki/19/14.md)). If it would be helpful in your language, you could use a comparable phrase that indicates that Paul is quoting from an important text. Alternate translation: [Or do you not know what the scripture says about Elijah, how he pleads with God against Israel? He says in the scriptures,]

OET (OET-LV) Not pushed_away the god the people of_him, whom he_foreknew.
Or not you_all_have_known in Aʸlias/(ʼĒliyyāh) what is_saying the scripture, how he_is_pleading the with_god against the Israaʸl/(Yisrāʼēl)?

OET (OET-RV) No, God didn’t push away his people that he knew before he chose them. Or don’t you know what Eliyah wrote when he pleaded with God to deal with Yisrael:

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.

Acknowledgements: The SR Greek text, lemmas, morphology, and VLT gloss are all thanks to the CNTR.
