ROM 5:3 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 as a tool 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: writing-pronouns

οὐ μόνον δέ

not only_‹that› and

The pronoun this here refers to boasting about “the hope of the glory of God,” as mentioned in the previous verse. If it would be helpful in your language, you could state this explicitly. Alternate translation: [And we not only boast on the basis of the hope of the glory of God]

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / metaphor

καὶ καυχώμεθα ἐν ταῖς θλίψεσιν

also ˱we˲_˓are˒_boasting in our tribulations

Here, in our sufferings could mean: (1) believers can boast about their sufferings. Alternate translation: [we can also boast about our sufferings] (2) believers can boast while they are experiencing sufferings. Alternate translation: [we can also boast when we are distressed]

Note 3 topic: grammar-connect-logic-result

εἰδότες

˓having˒_known

Here, knowing indicates that what follows in this verse and the next verse are the reasons why believers can boast in our sufferings. Use a natural way in your language for introducing reasons. Alternate translation: [since we know]

Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / abstractnouns

ἐν ταῖς θλίψεσιν & ἡ θλῖψις & ὑπομονὴν

in our tribulations & ¬the tribulation & (Some words not found in SR-GNT: οὐ μόνον δέ ἀλλὰ καὶ καυχώμεθα ἐν ταῖς θλίψεσιν εἰδότες ὅτι ἡ θλῖψις ὑπομονὴν κατεργάζεται)

If your language does not use abstract nouns for the ideas of sufferings, suffering, and endurance, you could express the same ideas with verbal forms. Alternate translation: [when we suffer … when we suffer, it … a way to endure]

Note 5 topic: figures-of-speech / metaphor

ἡ θλῖψις ὑπομονὴν κατεργάζεται

¬the tribulation endurance ˓is˒_producing

Paul speaks of endurance as if it were an object that could be produced. He means that when Christians trust in God while suffering, they develop greater endurance than they had before experiencing suffering. If it would be helpful in your language, you could express the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: [this suffering helps us know how to endure]
