GAL 5:7 Parallel Verse View

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.

UTN uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / metaphor

ἐτρέχετε καλῶς

˱you_all˲_/were/_running well

Here Paul refers to becoming more spiritually mature as if someone were running a race. If it would be helpful in your language, you could express the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: [You were making excellent progress in your faith] or [You were doing so well]

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / rquestion

τίς ὑμᾶς ἐνέκοψεν, ἀληθείᾳ μὴ πείθεσθαι?

who you_all hindered ˱by˲_/the/_truth not /to_be_being/_persuaded

Paul is not asking for information, but is using the question form here to emphasize 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: [You should not have let someone hinder you, not to be persuaded by truth!]

Note 3 topic: grammar-connect-logic-result

ἀληθείᾳ μὴ πείθεσθαι

˱by˲_/the/_truth not /to_be_being/_persuaded

This clause provides the expected result of what Paul said in the previous clause. Use a natural form for indicating a result. Alternate translation: [which is resulting in you not being persuaded by truth]

Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / activepassive

ἀληθείᾳ μὴ πείθεσθαι

˱by˲_/the/_truth not /to_be_being/_persuaded

If your language does not use the passive form in this way, you couldstate this in active form or in another way that is natural in your language. Alternate translation: [so that the truth is not persuading you]

ἀληθείᾳ μὴ πείθεσθαι

˱by˲_/the/_truth not /to_be_being/_persuaded

Alternate translation: [not to obey the truth]

Note 5 topic: figures-of-speech / abstractnouns

ἀληθείᾳ

˱by˲_/the/_truth

See how you translated truth in 2:5.
