OET interlinear ROM 4:23

uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / infostructure

οὐκ ἐγράφη & δι’ αὐτὸν μόνον, ὅτι ἐλογίσθη αὐτῷ

not ˱it˲_/was/_written & because_of him only that ˱it˲_/was/_reckoned ˱to˲_him

If it would be more natural in your language, you could reverse the order of these phrases and combine them. Alternate translation: “Now the phrase ‘it was credited to him,’ was not written only for his sake”

Note 2 topic: writing-pronouns

αὐτὸν & αὐτῷ

him & ˱to˲_him

The pronouns his and him refer to Abraham. If it would be helpful in your language, you could state this explicitly. Alternate translation: “Abraham’s … to him”

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / activepassive

οὐκ ἐγράφη & δι’ αὐτὸν μόνον

not ˱it˲_/was/_written & because_of him only

If your language does not use the passive form in this way, you could express the idea in active form or in another way that is natural in your language. If you must state who did the action, Moses wrote the quotation. Alternate translation: “Moses did not write it only for Abraham’s sake”

δι’ αὐτὸν

because_of him

Alternate translation: “for him” or “regarding him”

Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / quotemarks

ὅτι ἐλογίσθη αὐτῷ,

that ˱it˲_/was/_reckoned ˱to˲_him

This clause is a quotation from Genesis 15:6. 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 quotations.

Note 5 topic: figures-of-speech / activepassive

ἐλογίσθη αὐτῷ

˱it˲_/was/_reckoned ˱to˲_him

See how you translated this in the previous verse.
