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: figures-of-speech / explicit

οὐ λέγω

not ˱I˲_/am/_speaking

Here Paul refers to what he said in the previous verse about how he and his fellow workers did not hurt anyone (7:2). Here he wishes to clarify that he does not mean that it was the Corinthians who hurt people. If it would be helpful in your language, you could make this relationship more explicit. Alternate translation: [I did not speak what I just spoke] or [I did not write that]

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / abstractnouns

πρὸς κατάκρισιν

for condemnation

If your language does not use an abstract noun for the idea of condemnation, you could express the same idea in another way. Alternate translation: [to condemn you]

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit

προείρηκα

˱I˲_/have/_previously_said

Here Paul refers back to what he said in 6:11: “our heart has been opened wide.” If it would be helpful in your language, you could make this relationship more explicit. Alternate translation: [I told you earlier in this letter] or [I wrote above in this letter]

Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / metaphor

ἐν ταῖς καρδίαις ἡμῶν ἐστε

in the hearts ˱of˲_us ˱you_all˲_are

Here Paul speaks as if the Corinthians were in the hearts of him and his fellow workers. He means that they love the Corinthians very much. If it would be helpful in your language, you could state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: [you are in our affections] or [we love you very much]

Note 5 topic: figures-of-speech / merism

εἰς τὸ συναποθανεῖν καὶ συνζῆν

in_order that /to/_die_together and (Some words not found in SR-GNT: πρὸς κατάκρισιν οὐ λέγω προείρηκα γὰρ ὅτι ἐν ταῖς καρδίαις ἡμῶν ἐστε εἰς τὸ συναποθανεῖν καὶ συζῆν)

Here Paul refers to two extreme alternates, dying and living, to indicate that nothing that happens will keep him and his fellow workers from loving the Corinthians. If it would be helpful in your language, you could use a comparable expression or plain language. Alternate translation: [come what may] or [whatever may happen to us]
