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.

2:10 The mention of helping the poor connects this narrative with Acts 11:30; 12:25. The Christians in Judea suffered years of deep poverty, and Paul was eager to have the Gentile churches alleviate some of that difficulty and build unity with the Jewish church (see Rom 15:25-27; 1 Cor 16:1-4; 2 Cor 8:1–9:15).
Note 1 topic: grammar-connect-exceptions
μόνον τῶν πτωχῶν ἵνα μνημονεύωμεν
only ˱about˲_the poor that ˱we˲_/may_be/_remembering
Here, the word only introduces an exception clause that qualifies Paul’s statement at the end of 2:6 where Paul said that the leaders in Jerusalem added nothing to his message (meaning they did not require him to do or teach anything else). Use an appropriate form in your language so that it does not appear that Paul is making a statement here that contradicts his statement at the end of 2:6.
Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / exclusive
μνημονεύωμεν
˱we˲_/may_be/_remembering
When Paul says we here, he is not including the Galatians, so we would be exclusive. Your language may require you to mark these forms.
Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit
τῶν πτωχῶν & μνημονεύωμεν
˱about˲_the poor & ˱we˲_/may_be/_remembering
Here, remember the poor refers to remembering the material needs of the poor. If it would help your readers, you could indicate that explicitly. Alternate translation: [we should continue to remember to take care of the needs of the poor] or [we should continue to remember to help the poor with their needs]
Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / nominaladj
πτωχῶν
poor
Paul is using the adjective poor as a noun in order to describe a group of people. Your language may use adjectives in the same way. If not, you could translate this with a noun phrase. Alternate translation: [people who are poor]
