Note: This view shows ‘verses’ which are not necessarily natural language units and hence sometimes only part of a sentence will be visible—click on any Bible version abbreviation down the left-hand side to see the verse in more of its context. Normally the OET discourages the reading of individual ‘verses’, but this view is only designed as a tool for doing comparisons of different translations—the older translations are further down the page (so you can read up from the bottom to trace the English translation history). The OET segments on this page are still early looks into the drafted texts of the Open English Translation of the Bible—please double-check these texts in advance before using in public.

OET (OET-RV) We don’t just look at what we can see, but include the things that can’t be seen, because visible things are temporary, but the things that last forever are invisible to our eyes.OET logo mark

ULTWe are not watching the things being seen, but the things not being seen. For the things being seen, are temporary, but the things not being seen, are eternal.

USTSo, we pay attention to what we do not see rather than to what we see. That is because what we do not see will last forever, but what we see will pass away.

LSVwe [are] not looking to the things seen, but to the things not seen; for the things seen [are] temporary, but the things not seen [are] continuous.

FBVWe don't concern ourselves with what can be seen, for we look forward to what can't be seen. What we see is temporary, but what we can't see is eternal.

TCNTas we look not to what is seen, but to what is unseen. For what is seen is temporary, but what is unseen is eternal.

T4TThat is why we say, “We will not continue thinking about all the suffering that we are experiencing now. Even though we cannot see all the things that God has prepared for us in heaven, those are what we should be thinking about.” That is how we should think, because all these troubles that we(exc) have now will last only a short time. But what we will have in heaven, what we cannot see now, will last forever.

LEBbecause[fn] we are not looking at what is seen, but what is not seen. For what is seen is temporary, but what is not seen is eternal.

BBEWhile our minds are not on the things which are seen, but on the things which are not seen: for the things which are seen are for a time; but the things which are not seen are eternal.

Mofffor those of us whose eyes are on the unseen, not on the seen; for the seen is transient, the unseen eternal.

Wymthwhile we look not at things seen, but things unseen; for things seen are temporary, but things unseen are eternal.
