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.

Note 1 topic: grammar-connect-logic-contrast
ἀλλ’
but
Here, the word But is introducing an idea that is in contrast to an idea that was presented in 2:2. Paul is probably presenting the fact that not even Titus … was forced to be circumcised as being in contrast to the idea in 2:2 that he might have “run in vain” (labored in vain). Use a natural way in your language for introducing a contrast. Alternate translation: “On the contrary,” (
Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / distinguish
οὐδὲ Τίτος ὁ σὺν ἐμοί, Ἕλλην ὤν
not_even Titus who_‹was› with me /a/_Greek being
The phrase the one with me and the phrase being a Greek both give further information about Titus. Neither of these phrases is making a distinction between Titus and some other person. If it would be helpful in your language, you could make the relationship between these phrases clearer. Alternate translation: “not even Titus, my non-Jewish ministry partner”
Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / activepassive
οὐδὲ Τίτος ὁ σὺν ἐμοί, Ἕλλην ὤν, ἠναγκάσθη περιτμηθῆναι
not_even Titus who_‹was› with me /a/_Greek being /was/_compelled /to_be/_circumcised
The phrase was forced to be circumcised is passive. If your language does not use the passive form in this way, you could state this in active form or in another way that is natural in your language. Alternate translation: “the leaders of the church in Jerusalem did not even require my Greek ministry partner, Titus, to be circumcised”
