UTN uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: grammar-connect-words-phrases

δὲ

but

Here, But introduces a slight contrast between people who might boast and the Corinthians who are united to Christ. However, But primarily means that Paul is moving to the next step in his argument. If But would not express this idea in your language, you could use a word that indicates that the author is moving on to the next step, or you could leave it untranslated. Alternate translation: “Now”

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / activepassive

ἐξ αὐτοῦ & ὑμεῖς ἐστε ἐν Χριστῷ Ἰησοῦ

out_of him & you_all are in Christ Jesus

While because of him, you are in Christ Jesus is not written the way most passive sentences are, this construction is like a passive sentence and may be difficult to represent in your language. What because of him means is that God is the source of how the Corinthians are in Christ Jesus. If it would be helpful in your language, you could rephrase these words so that “God” is the subject who makes it so that you are in Christ Jesus. Alternate translation: “he puts you in Christ Jesus”

Note 3 topic: writing-pronouns

αὐτοῦ

him

Here, of him refers to God. If it would be helpful in your language, you could express to whom him refers with the name “God” here. Alternate translation: “of God”

Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / metaphor

ἐν Χριστῷ Ἰησοῦ

in Christ Jesus

Paul uses the spatial metaphor in Christ Jesus to describe the union of believers with Christ. In this case, being in Christ Jesus, or united to Christ Jesus, explains how Christ Jesus can be wisdom, righteousness, sanctification, and redemption for the Corinthians. Alternate translation: “in union with Christ Jesus”

Note 5 topic: figures-of-speech / metaphor

ὃς ἐγενήθη σοφία ἡμῖν ἀπὸ Θεοῦ, δικαιοσύνη τε, καὶ ἁγιασμὸς, καὶ ἀπολύτρωσις;

who /was/_become wisdom ˱to˲_us from God righteousness ¬and/both and holiness and redemption

Here Paul uses language and structure that is very similar to what he used in 1:24. Refer back to that verse to help you translate this verse. When Paul says that Jesus was made for us wisdom and righteousness, and also sanctification and redemption, he does not mean that Jesus has become these abstract ideas. Instead, he means that Jesus is the source of wisdom, righteousness, sanctification, and redemption for us who are in Christ Jesus. If it would be helpful in your language, you could include some clarifying words such as “the source of.” Alternate translation: “who was made for us the source of wisdom from God, the source of righteousness, and also the source of sanctification and redemption”

Note 6 topic: figures-of-speech / activepassive

ὃς ἐγενήθη σοφία ἡμῖν ἀπὸ Θεοῦ

who /was/_become wisdom ˱to˲_us from God

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 Christ Jesus, who was made for us wisdom, rather than focusing on the person “making” him wisdom. If you must state who does the action, Paul implies that “God” does it. Alternate translation: “whom God made for us wisdom from himself” or “whom God made to be wisdom for us”

Note 7 topic: writing-pronouns

ὃς

who

Here, who refers to Christ Jesus. If it would be helpful in your language, you could use the name of Christ Jesus instead of using who or along with who. Alternate translation: “the Christ who”

Note 8 topic: figures-of-speech / abstractnouns

σοφία & ἀπὸ Θεοῦ, δικαιοσύνη τε, καὶ ἁγιασμὸς, καὶ ἀπολύτρωσις

wisdom & from God righteousness ¬and/both and holiness and redemption

If your language does not use abstract nouns for the ideas behind wisdom, righteousness, sanctification, and redemption, you can express the ideas by using verbs with God as the subject. Alternate translation: “a person through whom God taught us, judged us not guilty, and also set us apart for himself and set us free”
