UTN uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: grammar-connect-logic-result

ὥστε

so_as

Paul is using the phrase So then to introduce a reason-result clause in which speaking truth to the Galatians is the reason, and them acting as if Paul was their enemy is the result. Use a natural way in your language for introducing a reason-result clause. Alternate translation: “Therefore” or “Therefore, as a result of” or “So then, as a result of”

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / rquestion

ἐχθρὸς ὑμῶν γέγονα, ἀληθεύων ὑμῖν

enemy ˱of˲_you_all ˱I˲_/have/_become being_truthful ˱to˲_you_all

The phrase speaking truth to you, have I become your enemy is a rhetorical question in which Paul is not asking for information, but is using the question form to show the Galatian believers his disappointment with them and cause them to think about what he is saying. If you would not use a rhetorical question for this purpose in your language, you could translate his words as a statement or an exclamation and communicate the emphasis in another way. Alternate translation: “as a result of my speaking the truth to you, you are acting as if I have become your enemy.”

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / abstractnouns

ἀληθεύων ὑμῖν

being_truthful ˱to˲_you_all

If your language does not use an abstract noun for the idea of truth, you could express the same idea with an adjective such as “true,” or you could express the meaning in some other way that is natural in your language. Alternate translation: “by telling you things that are true” or “because I have told you what is true”
