Note 1 topic: grammar-connect-words-phrases
γὰρ
for
For indicates that what follows this word explains what came before it. For here indicates that what follows in this verse is an example of pleasing others, as Paul mentioned in the previous verse. If it might be helpful in your language, you could state this explicitly. Alternate translation: “For example,” or “As an illustration,”
Note 2 topic: writing-quotations
καθὼς γέγραπται
as ˱it˲_/has_been/_written
See how you translated this phrase in 1:17.
Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / activepassive
καθὼς γέγραπται
as ˱it˲_/has_been/_written
If your language does not use the passive form in this way, you can state this in active form or in another way that is natural in your language. Since Paul is referring to something David wrote, you could indicate David as the subject. Alternate translation: “just as David wrote”
Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit
καθὼς γέγραπται
as ˱it˲_/has_been/_written
In the quotation that follows, Paul quotes Psalm 69:9 in which David records Christ (the Messiah) speaking to God. If it would be helpful in your language, you could state this explicitly. Alternate translation: “just as it is written that the Messiah said to God”
Note 5 topic: figures-of-speech / quotemarks
οἱ ὀνειδισμοὶ τῶν ὀνειδιζόντων σε, ἐπέπεσαν ἐπ’ ἐμέ
the derisions ˱of˲_the_‹ones› deriding you fell_on on me
This sentence is a quotation of Psalm 69:9. It may be helpful to your readers to indicate this with quotation marks or with whatever other punctuation or convention your language uses to indicate a quotation.
Note 6 topic: figures-of-speech / abstractnouns
οἱ ὀνειδισμοὶ
the derisions
If your language does not use an abstract noun for the idea of insults, you could express the same idea in another way. Alternate translation: “The insulting words”
Note 7 topic: figures-of-speech / metaphor
οἱ ὀνειδισμοὶ τῶν ὀνειδιζόντων σε, ἐπέπεσαν ἐπ’ ἐμέ
the derisions ˱of˲_the_‹ones› deriding you fell_on on me
Paul quotes David referring to insults against God also affecting Christ as if those insults were objects that fell on him. If it would be helpful in your language, you could express the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: “The insults of those who insult you are also insults against me”
15:3 This quotation is from Ps 69:9.
• A number of passages in the New Testament use Psalm 69 to describe Jesus’ suffering (Matt 27:34; Mark 15:35-36; Luke 23:36; John 15:25; 19:28-29). Paul’s quotation of just a small portion of that psalm evokes the whole experience of Jesus’ suffering.
OET (OET-LV) For/Because also the chosen_one/messiah not to_himself brought_pleasure, but as it_has_been_written:
The derisions of_the ones deriding you, fell_on on me.
OET (OET-RV) because even the messiah didn’t bring pleasure to himself, but, as it was written: ‘Those who were insulting you, their insults landed on me.’
Note: The OET-RV is still only a first draft, and so far only a few words have been (mostly automatically) matched to the Greek words that they’re translated from.
