OET interlinear ROM 8:33

uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / rquestion

τίς ἐγκαλέσει κατὰ ἐκλεκτῶν Θεοῦ?

who ˓will_be˒_indicting against ˓the˒_chosen_‹ones› ˱of˲_God

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: [Surely no one can bring an accusation against God’s elect!]

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit

τίς ἐγκαλέσει

who ˓will_be˒_indicting

Here, accusation implies an accusation that is based on facts. If it might be helpful in your language, you could state this explicitly. Alternate translation: [a true accusation]

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / abstractnouns

ἐκλεκτῶν Θεοῦ

˓the˒_chosen_‹ones› ˱of˲_God

If your language does not use an abstract noun for the idea of elect, you could express the same idea in another way. Alternate translation: [those who have been chosen by God] or [those whom God has elected]

Note 4 topic: grammar-connect-logic-result

Θεὸς ὁ δικαιῶν

God_‹is› the_‹one› justifying

This sentences states the reason why the idea in the previous sentence is true. Use a natural way in your language for indicating a reason. Alternate translation: [No on can accuse them, because God is the one who justifies]
