2COR 1:13 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.

UTN uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: grammar-connect-words-phrases

γὰρ

for

The word translated as For here connects this verse to the previous one as evidence that supports the claim that Paul made in the previous verse. Use a natural form in your language for connecting this evidence to the previous statement. Alternate translation: “You see,” or “As you know,”

Note 2 topic: writing-politeness

γράφομεν

˱we˲_/are/_writing

Here Paul may be referring to himself with the plural pronoun we to show that he is only part of a group. If it would be clearer for your readers, you could use the singular “I” here instead, as Paul did later in the verse. Alternate translation: “I write”

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / doublenegatives

οὐ γὰρ ἄλλα γράφομεν ὑμῖν, ἀλλ’ ἢ ἃ ἀναγινώσκετε ἢ καὶ ἐπιγινώσκετε

no for other_‹things› ˱we˲_/are/_writing ˱to˲_you_all but than what ˱you_all˲_/are/_reading or even ˱you_all˲_/are/_understanding

Paul is expressing a positive meaning here by using the two negative phrases, no other … but. If it would be helpful, you could use an equivalent expression in your language or you could express the plain positive meaning. Alternate translation: “For everything we write to you is straight talk” or “For what we write to you is just what you read and understand”

ἕως τέλους

to /the/_end

This could mean: (1) Paul hopes that the Corinthians will understand everything that he is trying to say to them. Alternate translation: “all of it” or “fully” (2) Paul hopes that the Corinthians will continue to understand what he is saying to them until Jesus returns. Alternate translation: “until the end”
