UTN uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / rquestion

μὴ & οἰκίας οὐκ ἔχετε εἰς τὸ ἐσθίειν καὶ πίνειν?

not & houses not ˱you_all˲_/are/_having in which /to_be/_eating and /to_be/_drinking

Paul does not ask this question because he is looking for information. Rather, he asks it to involve the Corinthians in what he is arguing. The question assumes that the answer is “yes, we do have houses.” If it would be helpful in your language, you could express the idea behind this question with a strong statement. Alternate translation: “you definitely have houses in which to eat and to drink.”

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit

μὴ & οἰκίας οὐκ ἔχετε εἰς τὸ ἐσθίειν καὶ πίνειν?

not & houses not ˱you_all˲_/are/_having in which /to_be/_eating and /to_be/_drinking

With this question, Paul implies that the eating behaviors he criticized in the last verse could be appropriate in one’s own “house.” Paul’s point here, then, is that if they want to “take their own suppers first” (11:21), they should be eating at their own houses. Behavior at the Lord’s Supper needs to be different. If it would be helpful in your language, you could express why Paul asks this question more explicitly as it connects back to how the Corinthians are eating at the Lord’s Supper. Alternate translation: “do you certainly not have houses in which you could eat and drink in any way you like”

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / doublenegatives

μὴ & οὐκ

not & not

The words translated certainly not are two negative words. In Paul’s culture, two negative words made the question even more negative, which in this case expects a strong positive answer. English speakers would misunderstand two negatives, so the ULT expresses the idea with one strong negative. If your language can use two negatives as Paul’s culture did, you could use a double negative here. If your language does not use two negatives in this way, you can translate with one strong negative, as the ULT does. Alternate translation: “surely not”

Note 4 topic: grammar-connect-words-phrases

ἢ & καταφρονεῖτε

or & ˱you_all˲_/are/_despising

The word Or introduces an alternate to what Paul asked in the first question. In that question, he reminded them that they do have houses in which to eat and to drink. With Or, then, Paul introduces the incorrect alternative: they could despise the church of God and humiliate those who have nothing. He introduces this incorrect alternate to show that the implication of his first question is true: they should be “eating” and “drinking” at home. If it would be helpful in your language, you could express Or with a word that signifies a contrast or gives an alternative. Alternate translation: “Rather, do you despise”

Note 5 topic: figures-of-speech / rquestion

ἢ τῆς ἐκκλησίας τοῦ Θεοῦ καταφρονεῖτε, καὶ καταισχύνετε τοὺς μὴ ἔχοντας?

or ˱of˲_the assembly ¬the ˱of˲_God ˱you_all˲_/are/_despising and ˱you_all˲_/are/_disgracing the_‹ones› not having

Paul does not ask this question because he is looking for information. Rather, he asks it to involve the Corinthians in what he is arguing. The question assumes that the answer is “we do not want to do these things.” If it would be helpful in your language, you could express the idea behind this question with a strong statement. Alternate translation: “However, you are the ones who despise the church of God and humiliate those who have nothing.”

Note 6 topic: grammar-connect-words-phrases

καὶ καταισχύνετε

and and ˱you_all˲_/are/_disgracing

Here, and introduces the specific way in which some of the Corinthians despise the church of God. If it would be helpful in your language, you could express the function of and here with a word that more clearly indicates a specific example or a means. Alternate translation: “by humiliating”

Note 7 topic: figures-of-speech / hyperbole

τοὺς μὴ ἔχοντας

the_‹ones› not having

Here, the ones having nothing is an exaggeration that the Corinthians would have understood to mean that these people do not have very much. Paul speaks in this way to emphasize the contrast between those who have houses and those having nothing. If it would be helpful in your language, you could qualify Paul’s claim and express the emphasis in another way. Alternate translation: “those who have very little”

Note 8 topic: figures-of-speech / rquestion

τί εἴπω ὑμῖν?

what ˱I˲_/may/_say ˱to˲_you_all

Paul does not ask this question because he is looking for information. Rather, he asks it to involve the Corinthians in what he is arguing. The question assumes that the answer is “we know that you are going to rebuke us.” If it would be helpful in your language, you could express the idea behind this question with a strong statement about what Paul is going to say. Alternate translation: “You know what I am going to say to you.”

Note 9 topic: figures-of-speech / rquestion

ἐπαινέσω ὑμᾶς ἐν τούτῳ?

˱I˲_/may/_praise you_all in this

Paul does not ask this question because he is looking for information. Rather, he asks it to involve the Corinthians in what he is arguing. The question assumes that the answer is “no, you should not.” If it would be helpful in your language, you could express the idea behind this question with a strong negation. Alternate translation: “I will definitely not praise you for this.”

Note 10 topic: figures-of-speech / doublet

ἐπαινέσω ὑμᾶς ἐν τούτῳ? οὐκ ἐπαινῶ!

˱I˲_/may/_praise you_all in this not ˱I˲_/am/_praising

Here Paul indicates that he will not praise the Corinthians by using both a rhetorical question and a negative statement. He uses both sentences in order to strongly emphasize how displeased he is. If your language does not use repetition for emphasis, and if your readers would not understand why Paul repeats the same idea, you could combine these two sentences into one strong negative statement. Alternate translation: “I will never praise you for this!”
