UTNuW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / imperative3p

δοκιμαζέτω δὲ ἄνθρωπος ἑαυτόν, καὶ οὕτως ἐκ τοῦ ἄρτου ἐσθιέτω, καὶ ἐκ τοῦ ποτηρίου πινέτω.

/let_be/_approving but /a/_person himself and thus of the bread ˱him˲_/let_be/_eating and of the cup ˱him˲_/let_be/_drinking

In this verse, Paul uses three third-person imperatives. If you have third-person imperatives in your language, you could use them here. If you do not have third-person imperatives, you could express the ideas using a word such as “must” or “should.” Alternate translation: “But a man must examine himself, and in this way he should eat from the bread, and he should drink from the cup”

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / gendernotations

ἄνθρωπος ἑαυτόν & ἐσθιέτω & πινέτω

/a/_person himself & ˱him˲_/let_be/_eating & ˱him˲_/let_be/_drinking

Here, a man, himself, and him are written in masculine form, but they refer to anyone, no matter which their gender might be. If it would be helpful in your language, you could express the idea behind these words by using word that do not have gender, or you could use both genders. Alternate translation: “a person … himself or herself … let him or her eat … let him or her drink”

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / infostructure

οὕτως ἐκ τοῦ ἄρτου ἐσθιέτω, καὶ ἐκ τοῦ ποτηρίου πινέτω

thus of the bread ˱him˲_/let_be/_eating and of the cup ˱him˲_/let_be/_drinking

Here, in this way introduces both let him eat and let him drink. If it would be helpful in your language, you could combine let him drink and the earlier command, or you could repeat in this way. Alternate translation: “in this way let him eat from the bread and drink from the cup” or “in this way let him eat from the bread, and in this way let him drink from the cup”

Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / idiom

ἐκ τοῦ ἄρτου ἐσθιέτω

of the bread ˱him˲_/let_be/_eating

Here, to eat from something means to eat some of that thing. If it would be helpful in your language, you could express eat from with a word or phrase that refers to eating part of something. Alternate translation: “let him eat his portion of the bread” or “let him eat some of the loaf of bread”
