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.

TSNTyndale Study Notes:

5:1-10 The prospect of eternal hope is bright, with heavenly bodies replacing the dying bodies of this present life. The God of resurrection will also raise us and present us to himself with all believers (4:14). The immediate stimulus for this statement of resurrection hope was what Paul had to face in Ephesus (1:8-11). The frailty of his body reminded him of what lies beyond death, when this earthly tent we live inthat is, our body—will be taken down in death and dissolution (see 1 Cor 15:42-57; Phil 3:20-21).


UTNuW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / exmetaphor

ἐνδυσάμενοι, οὐ γυμνοὶ εὑρεθησόμεθα

/having/_dressed_in not naked ˱we˲_/will_be_being/_found

Here Paul continues to speak of bodies as if they were clothing. You should express the idea as you did in 5:2. Alternate translation: [we have a house to live in, we will not be found homeless] or [having a new body that is like clothing, we will not be found naked, that is, without a body]

Note 2 topic: grammar-connect-condition-fact

εἴ γε & ἐνδυσάμενοι

if surely & /having/_dressed_in

Here Paul is speaking as if having clothed ourselves were a hypothetical possibility, but he means that it will actually be true. If your language does not state something as a condition if it is certain or true, and if your readers might misunderstand and think that what Paul is saying is not certain, then you could express the idea by using a word such as “when” or “whenever.” Alternate translation: [when indeed we have clothed ourselves]

ἐνδυσάμενοι

/having/_dressed_in

Here Paul could mean that: (1) we clothe ourselves. Alternate translation: [we clothe ourselves] (2) God clothes “us.” Alternate translation: [God clothes us]

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / activepassive

οὐ & εὑρεθησόμεθα

not & ˱we˲_/will_be_being/_found

If your language does not use the passive form in this way, you could express the idea in active form or in another way that is natural in your language. Paul uses the passive form to focus on the state of being naked rather than on who “finds” them, so you should avoid stating a subject for found. Alternate translation: [we will not be]
