OET (OET-LV) Hypocrites.
Aʸsaias/(Yəshaˊyāh) rightly prophesied concerning you_all saying,

OET (OET-RV) You hypocrites! The prophet Yeshayah was right about you people when he wrote:

SIL Open Translator’s Notes:

Section 15:1–20: The deeds that make someone unclean in God’s eyes

Over the years, Jewish religious leaders added many oral rules to God’s written laws. The Pharisees and teachers of the law considered these oral rules (also called traditions) to be as important as God’s written laws. One of their rules was that a person must wash his hands a certain way before he ate food. If a Jew did not follow this rule before he ate, they considered him ceremonially “unclean.” This meant that they did not allow him to worship God in public for a certain amount of time. Jesus made it clear that there was something far more important than how a person washed his hands. The important thing was the condition of his heart.

Here are some other possible headings for this section:

Jesus Challenges the Pharisees’ Traditions (GW)

Jesus Teaches about Inner Purity/Cleanliness

There are parallel passages for this section in Mark 7:1–23 and Luke 11:37–39.

15:7a

You hypocrites!

You hypocrites: The Greek word that the BSB translates as hypocrites literally refers to actors (in the theater). Figuratively it refers to people who pretend to be people that they are not. They say that they believe one thing, but they do something different from what they say. Or they appear religious or spiritual on the outside, but they do not have hearts that desire to please God.

In this context, Jesus was referring to Pharisees who said that they carefully followed the word of God. But in reality, they broke certain commandments.

Here are some other ways to translate this word:

You who act like you obey God!

You pretend to be good.

This word first occurs in 6:2. It also occurs in 7:5.

15:7b

Isaiah prophesied correctly about you:

Isaiah prophesied correctly about you: In Greek, this clause is more literally: “Isaiah prophesied correctly concerning you saying…” Isaiah’s prophecy was God’s words to the religious hypocrites of that time. But the prophecy was also fitting for the religious hypocrites of Jesus’ time.

God gave the words in 15:8–9 to Isaiah, and Isaiah spoke them to the people. You may want to make it clear that God is speaking in 15:8–9. For example:

Isaiah’s prophecy really applies to you in which God said

Isaiah prophesied correctly about you. God’s words were:

Isaiah: Isaiah is the name of a prophet. He lived many years before the time of Jesus.

prophesied: This verb means “spoke a message from God.” God told Isaiah something that only God knew, and Isaiah then told the people.

Here are some other ways to translate this verb:

spoke God’s message

proclaimed God’s words

In some languages, it may be more natural to change this verb to the noun “prophet” and a verb such as “spoke.” For example:

the prophet Isaiah spoke/said

uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit

καλῶς

rightly

Here, Jesus’ use of the word well indicates that he believed that what Isaiah prophesied about the scribes and Pharisees accurately describes them. You could include this information if that would be helpful to your readers. Alternate translation: [accurately] or [truly]

Note 2 topic: writing-quotations

λέγων

saying

Here Jesus introduces a quotation from the Old Testament scriptures, specifically from [Isaiah 29:13](../../isa/29/13.md). If it would be helpful to your readers, you could use a word or phrase that introduces a quotation from an important text, and you could include this information in a footnote. Alternate translation: [saying in the book of Isaiah] or [as it is written]
