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.

3:10-18 The six quotations in these verses, drawn from various parts of the Old Testament, all address human sinfulness. Paul follows the practice of rabbis who gathered together Old Testament texts on similar themes in a practice called pearl-stringing.
Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / quotemarks
πάντες ἐξέκλιναν, ἅμα ἠχρεώθησαν; οὐκ ἔστιν ποιῶν χρηστότητα, οὐκ ἔστιν ἕως ἑνός
all turned_away together ˱they˲_/were/_being_useless not_‹one› ˱there˲_is practicing kindness not ˱there˲_is as_much_as one
This sentence is quotation of Psalm 14:3 and Psalm 53:4. It may be helpful to your readers to indicate this by setting off all of this material with quotation marks or with whatever punctuation or convention your language uses to indicate a quotation.
Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / metaphor
ἐξέκλιναν
turned_away
Paul quotes David using turned away to describe these people as if they had left a path that leads to where God is. David means that they refuse to live according to God’s rules. If it would be helpful in your language, you could express the meaning plainly. Alternative translation: “refused to live the way God requires”
Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit
ἅμα ἠχρεώθησαν
together ˱they˲_/were/_being_useless
Here, useless implies that these sinful people are so sinful that they benefit neither God nor humankind. If it would be helpful in your language, you could state this explicitly. Alternate translation: “They together became worthless for benefitting anyone”
Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / parallelism
οὐκ ἔστιν ποιῶν χρηστότητα, οὐκ ἔστιν ἕως ἑνός
not_‹one› ˱there˲_is practicing kindness not ˱there˲_is as_much_as one
These two phrases mean the same thing. Paul says the same thing twice, in slightly different ways, to emphasize that not even one type of person can continually do kindness. If it would be helpful in your language, you could combine the phrases into one. Alternate translation: “There is not even one person who does kindness” or “Absolutely no one is doing kindness”
Note 5 topic: figures-of-speech / nominaladj
οὐκ & ἑνός
not_‹one› & one
See how you translated none and one in 3:10.
Note 6 topic: figures-of-speech / abstractnouns
χρηστότητα
kindness
If your language does not use an abstract noun for the idea of kindness, you could express the same idea in a different way. Alternate translation: “what is kind”
