Note: This view shows ‘verses’ which are not natural language units and hence sometimes only part of a sentence will be visible—click on any Bible version abbreviation down the left-hand side to see the verse in more of its context. Normally the OET discourages the reading of individual ‘verses’, but this view is only designed as a tool for doing comparisons of different translations—the older translations are further down the page (so you can read up from the bottom to trace the English translation history). 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.

SOTN SIL Open Translator’s Notes:

Section 15:22–33: Paul planned to visit Rome

In this section, Paul explained his plan to go to Spain and visit the believers in Rome on the way. He also explained that he was currently going to Jerusalem with a gift of money for the poor believers there from the believers in Macedonia and Achaia. Once he was finished with that, he planned to go to Spain.

Paul asked the believers in Rome to pray for him. Paul wanted to avoid being blocked in his ministry by Jews who did not believe in Jesus. He also asked them to pray that the gift he was taking to Jerusalem would be acceptable to the believers there. If it was, he would have joy and be able to enjoy his visit with the believers in Rome.

Here are other possible headings for this section:

Paul wanted to visit the believers in Rome on his way to Spain

Paul’s Plan to Visit Rome (NIV)

15:32a

so that by God’s will I may come to you with joy

In that way, if God chooses, I will come to you with joy,
so that, if God wants me to journey to Rome, I may go/come to you, feeling happy,

so that: This phrase introduces the purpose for Paul to be delivered from unbelievers (15:31a) and for the believers in Jerusalem to accept his service (15:31b).

by God’s will I may come to you with joy: The phrase by God’s will is emphasized by being first in the clause in the BSB. But it is not first in the Greek. Put this phrase in its usual position in your translation. For example:

I may come to you with joy by God’s will

by God’s will: This indicates that God would decide if Paul would go or not. Here are other ways to translate this phrase:

that God will decide/choose that

that God will allow

if God wants it (NCV)

See how you translated this in 1:10.

15:32b

and together with you be refreshed.

and we^(incl) together will restore/regain our strength.
and so that I together with you^(plur) may get our strength back.

together with you: This phrase indicates that Paul and the Roman believers would be together and they would all experience being refreshed. For example:

together with you (NABRE)

be refreshed: The word refreshed refers to resting and getting one’s strength back again. Here it would refer mostly to mental, motivational, and emotional strength, rather than physical strength. Here are other ways to translate this clause:

find refreshing rest (NASB)

I will have a time of rest (NCV)

UTN uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: grammar-connect-words-phrases

ἵνα

in_order_that

See how you translated so that in the previous verse.

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / abstractnouns

ἐν χαρᾷ

in joy

If your language does not use an abstract noun for the idea of joy, you could express the same idea in another way. Alternate translation: [while being joyful]

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / abstractnouns

θελήματος Θεοῦ

˓the˒_will ˱of˲_God

See how you translated this phrase in [1:10](../01/10.md).

Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / activepassive

συναναπαύσωμαι

˱I˲_˓may˒_find_rest

If your language does not use the passive form in this way, you can state this in active form or in another way that is natural in your language. Alternate translation: [and might refresh myself together with]
