OET interlinear ROM 14:7

uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: grammar-connect-logic-result

γὰρ

for

For indicates that what follows this word explains what came before it. For here indicates that what follows is the reason why what Paul said in the previous clause is true. Use a natural way in your language for indicating a reason. Alternate translation: “This is due to the fact that”

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / exclusive

ἡμῶν

˱of˲_us

Here, us refers to Paul and his Christian readers, so us would be inclusive. Your language may require you to mark this form.

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit

ἑαυτῷ & ἑαυτῷ

˱to˲_himself & ˱to˲_himself

Here, for himself means to do something only to benefit oneself. If it would be helpful in your language, you could state this explicitly. Alternate translation: “for the benefit of himself … for the benefit of himself”

Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / ellipsis

(Occurrence 2) οὐδεὶς

no_one

Paul is leaving out some of the words that a clause would need in many languages to be complete. If it would be helpful in your language, you could supply these words from the previous clause, as in the UST.
