Scissuræ erant pro donis spiritualibus: et hi malo suo prosunt catholicis.

Key for above GNTs: yellow:punctuation differs, red:words differ (from our SR-GNT base).
11:19 As translated, this ironic expression rebukes the Corinthian Christians’ claims to superiority based on distinctions among them. Alternatively, Paul might be saying that though their divisiveness is clearly wrong, it will have the positive result of making clear who among them is truly faithful.
Note 1 topic: grammar-connect-logic-result
γὰρ
for
Here, For introduces the reason for which Paul “in part believes” what he has “heard” (11:18). If it would be helpful in your language, you could express For with a word or phrase that clearly gives a reason for why Paul “believes it.” Alternate translation: [In fact,] or [I do this since]
Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / irony
δεῖ & καὶ αἱρέσεις ἐν ὑμῖν εἶναι, ἵνα καὶ οἱ δόκιμοι φανεροὶ γένωνται ἐν ὑμῖν
˱it˲_/is/_fitting & also sects among you_all to_be in_order_that also the approved_‹ones› manifest /may/_become among you_all
This sentence could be: (1) a simple statement about how God uses factions to reveal those who are approved. Alternate translation: [God wishes to make evident among you those who are approved, and factions among you are a necessary part of this] (2) an ironic statement that identifies factions as the necessary result of people who want to show themselves off as those who are approved. Use a standard form in your language to indicate irony, especially with the phrase those who are approved, which would be spoken from the Corinthians’ perspective. Alternate translation: [some people consider it necessary indeed for there to be factions among you, so that they, who consider themselves to be ‘those who are approved,’ may display themselves publicly among you]
Note 3 topic: translate-unknown
αἱρέσεις
sects
Here, factions has similar meaning to “divisions” in 11:18. The word factions focuses more on the content of the differing beliefs and practices than “divisions” does; “divisions” emphasizes the differences themselves. If your language can clearly express these distinctions, you could use words that express these two ideas. If your language does not clearly express these distinctions, you can translate factions with the same word you used for “divisions.” Alternate translation: [divisions]
Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / activepassive
δόκιμοι
approved_‹ones›
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 approved rather than focusing on the person doing the “approving.” If you must state who did the action, you must choose a subject that fits with whether you understand this sentence as ironic or not. The subject could be: (1) God, if the sentence is not ironic. Alternate translation: [whom God approves] (2) the people themselves, if the sentence is ironic. Alternate translation: [who approve of themselves]
Note 5 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit
καὶ οἱ δόκιμοι φανεροὶ γένωνται
also also the approved_‹ones› manifest /may/_become
Here Paul does not state how or why the ones approved will become evident. Depending on whether the sentence is ironic or not, may become evident could imply that: (1) the factions are God’s way of testing and revealing who is approved, since those who continue to genuinely believe are approved. This is the implication if the sentence is not ironic. Alternate translation: [God may reveal also those who are approved] (2) the factions are the means by which some people show off what they think about themselves as approved. This is the implication if the sentence is ironic. Alternate translation: [also those who are approved may show themselves off]
