¹ tn The Greek verb here is εὐαγγελίζεται (euangelizetai).

² tn Or “keep”; or “carry out”; Grk “do.”

³ tn The verb translated “I am confident” (πέποιθα, pepoiqa) comes from the same root in Greek as the words translated “obey” (πείθεσθαι, peiqesqai) in v. 7 and “persuasion” (πεισμονή, peismonh) in v. 8.

⁴ tn Grk “that you will think nothing otherwise.”

⁵ tn Or “is stirring you up”; Grk “is troubling you.” In context Paul is referring to the confusion and turmoil caused by those who insist that Gentile converts to Christianity must observe the Mosaic law.

⁶ tn Or “will suffer condemnation” (L&N 90.80); Grk “will bear his judgment.” The translation “must pay the penalty” is given as an explanatory gloss on the phrase by BDAG 171 s.v. βαστάζω 2.b.β.

⁷ tn Or “determine the genuineness of.”

⁸ tn Grk “he will have a reason for boasting.”

⁹ tn Or “and not in regard to.” The idea of comparison is implied in the context.
