ROM 7:22 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:

γὰρ

For indicates that what follows this word explains what came before it. For here indicates that what follows in this verse is the reason why the previous verse is true. Use a natural way in your language for indicating a reason. Alternate translation: [What I have just said is true because]

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / metaphor

συνήδομαι & τῷ νόμῳ τοῦ Θεοῦ

˱I˲_/am/_joyfully_concurring & ˱in˲_the law ¬the ˱of˲_God

Here Paul speaks of the law of God as if it were a location in which a person could delight. He means that God’s laws cause him to delight. If it would be helpful in your language, you could express the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: [I delight because of the law of God]

Note 3 topic: grammar-collectivenouns

τῷ νόμῳ τοῦ Θεοῦ

˱in˲_the law ¬the ˱of˲_God

Here, the law of God refers to the laws that God gave the Jews, which is usually what Paul means when he says the law. See how you translated the similar expression in 2:12.

Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / metaphor

τὸν ἔσω ἄνθρωπον

the inside person

Here, the inner man refers to a person’s mind. If it would be helpful in your language, you could express the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: [the inner being] or [the mind]
