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.

UTN uW Translation Notes:

ὁ ἀσπασμὸς τῇ ἐμῇ χειρὶ

the greeting_‹is› ¬the ˱of˲_my /own/_hand

Paul concludes his letter by writing a final greeting to the Corinthians. Your language may have a particular way of sharing greetings in a letter. If so, you could use that form here. Alternate translation: [I ask to be remembered in my own hand] or [I send regards in my own hand]

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit

ὁ ἀσπασμὸς τῇ ἐμῇ χειρὶ

the greeting_‹is› ¬the ˱of˲_my /own/_hand

In Paul’s culture, it was normal for a scribe to write down what the author of the letter was saying. Paul here indicates that he himself is writing these last words. He may mean just this verse, or he may mean the rest of the letter. The phrase in my own hand means that it was Paul’s “own hand” that took up the pen and wrote. If it would be helpful in your language, you could express the idea behind in my own handby using a comparable expression or include any extra information needed to make it clear. Alternate translation: [This greeting is in my handwriting] or [I write this greeting myself]

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / 123person

Παύλου

˱of˲_Paul

Here, Paul speaks of himself in the third person. He does this to sign his name to the letter, which shows that the letter is from Paul himself and carries his authority. If your language has a specific form for signing letters or documents, you could use it here. Alternate translation: [I am Paul]
