1COR 5:12 Parallel Verse View

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.

OET (OET-RV) Why would it be my job to judge outsiders—no, shouldn’t it be those inside the assemblies that you judge?

Key: khaki:verbs, light-green:nominative/subject, orange:accusative/object, cyan:dative/indirect object.
Note: Automatic aligning of the OET-RV to the LV is done by some temporary software, hence the OET-RV alignments are incomplete (and may occasionally be wrong).

UST I want you to act in this way only with fellow believers, because you and I do not need to decide whether someone who is not part of our group is guilty or innocent. Rather, you need to focus on deciding whether people who are part of your group are guilty or innocent.

UTN uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: grammar-connect-logic-result

γάρ

for

Here, For introduces further reasons why Paul wants the Corinthians to focus on “judging” fellow believers but not those outside. These reasons continue into the next verse (5:13). If it would be helpful in your language, you could express this connection with a word or phrase that would introduce further reasons. Alternate translation: [Further,] or [For more proof,]

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / rquestion

τί & μοι τοὺς ἔξω κρίνειν?

what_‹is_it› & ˱to˲_me the_‹ones› outside /to_be/_judging

Here Paul asks what to me to judge those outside, but he is not really asking for information. Rather, the question assumes that the answer is “nothing” or “it does not matter to me,” and Paul uses the question to involve the Corinthians in what he is arguing. If it would be helpful in your language, you could express the idea behind this question with a strong negative statement. Alternate translation: [it is nothing to me to judge those outside] or [it is not my business to judge those outside]

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / ellipsis

τί & μοι

what_‹is_it› & ˱to˲_me

Here Paul omits some words that may be required in your language to make a full sentence. You could supply words such as “is it” or “does it matter” to complete the thought. Alternate translation: [what is it to me] or [what does it matter to me]

Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / 123person

μοι

˱to˲_me

Here Paul speaks of himself only, but he wants the Corinthians to have the same opinion that he has. If to me would cause your readers to misunderstand this point, you could include the Corinthians in this question as well. Alternate translation: [to us] or [to you and me]

Note 5 topic: figures-of-speech / idiom

τοὺς ἔξω & τοὺς ἔσω

the_‹ones› outside & the_‹ones› inside

The phrase the ones outside identifies people who do not belong to the group of believers in Corinth. The phrase the ones inside identifies the opposite: people who do belong to the group of believers in Corinth. If it would be helpful in your language, you could express these phrases with words or phrases that refer to people who belong to and do not belong to a specific group. Alternate translation: [the outsiders … the insiders]

Note 6 topic: figures-of-speech / rquestion

οὐχὶ τοὺς ἔσω ὑμεῖς κρίνετε?

not the_‹ones› inside you_all /are/_judging

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.” If it would be helpful in your language, you could express the idea behind this question with a strong affirmation or statement of obligation. Alternate translation: [But you should judge those inside] or [You do indeed judge those inside]
