Note: This view shows ‘verses’ which are not natural language units and hence sometimes only part of a sentence will be visible. Normally the OET discourages the reading of individual ‘verses’, but this view is only designed for doing comparisons of different translations. Click on any Bible version abbreviation down the left-hand side to see the verse in more of its context. 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.

14:26-40 Paul gives specific procedures for the use of spiritual gifts in the church and emphasizes that they are to be expressed in an orderly way. Among the early Christians, church meetings were not led by professional pastors or priests. Instead, everyone shared with the others what God had given them for strengthening the church.
Note 1 topic: grammar-connect-words-phrases
ἢ
either
The word Or introduces an alternate to the instructions that Paul has given about proper order in worship, including what he has said in 14:27–35 but especially 14:33b–35. Paul uses Or to indicate that thinking that the word of God went out from them is the opposite of obeying what he has said. If it would be helpful in your language, you could express Or with a word or phrase that introduces an alternative. Alternate translation: [Suppose you do not want to follow my instructions. Consider this:]
Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / rquestion
ἢ ἀφ’ ὑμῶν ὁ λόγος τοῦ Θεοῦ ἐξῆλθεν, ἢ εἰς ὑμᾶς μόνους κατήντησεν?
either from you_all the word ¬the ˱of˲_God came_out or to you_all only ˱it˲_arrived
Paul does not ask these questions because he is looking for information. Rather, he asks them to involve the Corinthians in what he is arguing. The questions assume that the answer to both is “no, it did not.” If it would be helpful in your language, you could express these questions by stating the ideas with strong negations. If you do so, you will need to replace Or with different transition words. Alternate translation: [Indeed, the word of God certainly did not go out from you, and it certainly did not come only to you.]
Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / personification
ὁ λόγος τοῦ Θεοῦ ἐξῆλθεν & κατήντησεν
the word ¬the ˱of˲_God came_out & ˱it˲_arrived
Here Paul speaks as if the word of God were a person who could travel. He speaks in this way to emphasize the word over the people who proclaim that word. If it would be helpful in your language, you could indicate that people travel with the word and indicate the emphasis on the word of God in another way. Alternate translation: [did the people who proclaim the word of God go out … did people who proclaim it come]
Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / go
ὁ λόγος τοῦ Θεοῦ ἐξῆλθεν & εἰς ὑμᾶς μόνους κατήντησεν
the word ¬the ˱of˲_God came_out & to you_all only ˱it˲_arrived
In the first question, go out refers to the Corinthians as the source of the word of God. In the second question, come refers to the Corinthians as the recipients of the word of God. Use movement words that make this clear in your language. Alternate translation: [did the word of God depart … did it reach only you]
Note 5 topic: figures-of-speech / metonymy
ὁ λόγος τοῦ Θεοῦ
the word ¬the ˱of˲_God
Here, word represents what someone says in words. If it would be helpful in your language, you could express word with an equivalent expression or plain language. Alternate translation: [the message of God]
Note 6 topic: figures-of-speech / possession
ὁ λόγος τοῦ Θεοῦ
the word ¬the ˱of˲_God
Here Paul uses the possessive to describe a word that is: (1) from God. Alternate translation: [the word from God] (2) about God. Alternate translation: [the word about God]
