Normally the OET discourages the reading of individual ‘verses’, but this view is only designed for doing comparisons of different translations.

The OET segments on this page are still very early looks into the unfinished texts of the Open English Translation of the Bible. Please double-check these texts in advance before using in public.

10:31-33 Paul concludes his discussion by summarizing the two principles that are to guide Christian behavior in issues like this: (1) Believers are to do everything for the glory of God (see Col 3:17; 1 Pet 4:11); (2) believers are not to give offense and should avoid doing anything that would harm another person’s Christian faith (cp. 1 Cor 8:9, 13; 1 Jn 2:10). Christians’ behavior is to be guided by what is best for others rather than by personal privilege (cp. Rom 14:13-15, 19-21; 15:1-2). These two basic principles lie at the heart of Paul’s advice on practical Christian living in this letter.
Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / possession
τὸ ἐμαυτοῦ σύμφορον & τὸ τῶν πολλῶν
the ˱of˲_myself benefit & the_‹benefit› ˱of˲_the many
Here Paul speaks of a benefit that belongs to him or to many others. By this, he refers to what is a benefit for himself or for the many others. If your language does not use the possessive form to express that idea, you can clarify that the benefit is “for” somebody. Alternate translation: [what is a benefit for me but what is a benefit for the many]
Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / abstractnouns
τὸ ἐμαυτοῦ σύμφορον, ἀλλὰ τὸ τῶν πολλῶν
the ˱of˲_myself benefit but the_‹benefit› ˱of˲_the many
If your language does not use an abstract noun for the idea behind benefit, you can express the idea by using a verb such as “benefit.” Alternate translation: [what benefits me but what benefits the many]
Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / nominaladj
τῶν πολλῶν
˱of˲_the many
Paul is using the adjective many as a noun in order to describe a group of people. Your language may use adjectives in the same way. If not, you could translate this with a noun phrase. Alternate translation: [of many people] or [of everyone else]
Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / activepassive
σωθῶσιν
˱they˲_/may_be/_saved
If your language does not use the passive form in this way, you can express the idea in active form or in another way that is natural in your language. Paul uses the passive form here to focus on those who are saved rather than focusing on the person doing the “saving.” If you must state who does the action, Paul implies that “God” does it. Alternate translation: [God might save them]
