1TIM 6:7 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: grammar-connect-logic-result

γὰρ

for

Here, the word For introduces a reason why Paul focuses on gaining things besides money in the previous verse. If it would be helpful in your language, you could use a word or phrase that introduces a reason or basis for a claim, or you could leave For untranslated. Alternate translation: [I say that since] or [Trying to gain money is wrong because]

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit

οὐδὲν & εἰσηνέγκαμεν εἰς τὸν κόσμον

nothing & ˱we˲_carried_in into the world

Here Paul is referring to when a person is born. At birth, a person does not own anything or contribute anything to the world. If it would be helpful in your language, you could make that idea more explicit. Alternate translation: [we brought nothing into the world when we were born]

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / ellipsis

ὅτι

because

Here, the word translated that could: (1) introduce something that is clear or obvious. In this case, Paul has omitted the words that indicate that the second sentence is clear or obvious. Alternate translation: [and it is clear that] (2) introduce a reason for the first clause. In this case, the reason why people bring nothing into the world is because they will bring nothing out of the world. Alternate translation: [because] (3) function as a simple connector. Alternate translation: [and]

Note 4 topic: translate-textvariants

ὅτι

because

Many ancient manuscripts read that. The ULT follows that reading. Other ancient manuscripts read “it is clear that.” If a translation of the Bible exists in your region, you may wish to use the reading that it uses. If a translation of the Bible does not exist in your region, you may wish to use the reading of the ULT.

Note 5 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit

οὐδὲ ἐξενεγκεῖν τι δυνάμεθα

neither /to/_bring_out anything ˱we˲_/are/_being_able

Here Paul is referring to when a person dies. At death, a person no longer owns anything or contributes anything to the world. If it would be helpful in your language, you could make that idea more explicit. Alternate translation: [neither are we able to take anything out when we die]

Note 6 topic: figures-of-speech / ellipsis

ἐξενεγκεῖν τι

/to/_bring_out anything

Paul is leaving out some of the words that in many languages a sentence would need in order to be complete. You could supply these words from earlier in the sentence if it would be clearer in your language. Alternate translation: [to take anything out of the world]
