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) So from now on, we don’t just know people in the physical dimension, and even if we have known Messiah physically, that’s no longer how we know him.OET logo mark

OET-LVSo_then we from the time now no_one have_known according_to flesh.
If even we_have_known according_to flesh chosen_one/messiah, but now no_longer we_are_knowing him.

ULTTherefore, from now on we regard no one according to the flesh. Even if we regarded Christ according to the flesh, yet now we no longer regard him, that way.

USTBecause of all that, we do not think about anyone in merely human ways any longer. Indeed, although at one time we thought about the Messiah in merely human ways, we do not think about him in those ways any longer.

BSBSo from now on we regard no one according to [the] flesh. Although we once regarded Christ [in this way], [we do so] no longer.

MSBSo from now on we regard no one according to [the] flesh. Although we once regarded Christ [in this way], [we do so] no longer.

BLBTherefore from now, we regard no one according to the flesh. Even though we have regarded Christ according to flesh, yet now we regard Him thus no longer.

AICNTSo from now on, we regard no one according to the flesh; even if we have known Christ according to the flesh, yet now we know him in this way no longer.

OEBFor ourselves, then, from this time forward, we refuse to regard anyone from the world’s standpoint. Even if we once thought of Christ from the standpoint of the world, yet now we do so no longer.

2DT So that, from now on, we know no person consistent with Flesh. Even if we have known Christos consistent with Flesh, but we now no longer know [him like that].

WEBBETherefore we know no one according to the flesh from now on. Even though we have known Christ according to the flesh, yet now we know him so no more.

WMBBTherefore we know no one according to the flesh from now on. Even though we have known Messiah according to the flesh, yet now we know him so no more.

MSG(16-20)Because of this decision we don’t evaluate people by what they have or how they look. We looked at the Messiah that way once and got it all wrong, as you know. We certainly don’t look at him that way anymore. Now we look inside, and what we see is that anyone united with the Messiah gets a fresh start, is created new. The old life is gone; a new life emerges! Look at it! All this comes from the God who settled the relationship between us and him, and then called us to settle our relationships with each other. God put the world square with himself through the Messiah, giving the world a fresh start by offering forgiveness of sins. God has given us the task of telling everyone what he is doing. We’re Christ’s representatives. God uses us to persuade men and women to drop their differences and enter into God’s work of making things right between them. We’re speaking for Christ himself now: Become friends with God; he’s already a friend with you.

NETSo then from now on we acknowledge no one from an outward human point of view. Even though we have known Christ from such a human point of view, now we do not know him in that way any longer.

LSVSo that we, from now on, have known no one according to the flesh, and even if we have known Christ according to the flesh, yet now we know Him [thus] no longer;

FBVFrom now on we don't look at anyone from a human point of view. Even though we once viewed Christ this way, we don't do so any longer.

TCNTSo from now on we regard no one according to the flesh. Even if we have known Christ according to the flesh, we no longer know him in that way.

T4TSo, because I realize how much Christ loves everyone, I no longer think about people in the way that those who do not believe in Christ think about them. Before I was a believer, I thought about Christ in the way that other non-believers did. But I do not think of him that way any more.

LEBSo then, from now on we know no one from a human point of view[fn], if indeed we have known Christ from a human point of view[fn], but now we know him this way no longer.

BBEFor this reason, from this time forward we have knowledge of no man after the flesh: even if we have had knowledge of Christ after the flesh, we have no longer any such knowledge.

MoffOnce convinced of this, then, I estimate no one by what is external; even though I once estimated Christ by what is external, I no longer estimate him thus.

WymthTherefore for the future we know no one simply as a man. Even if we have known Christ as a man, yet now we do so no longer.

ASVWherefore we henceforth know no man after the flesh: even though we have known Christ after the flesh, yet now we know him so no more.

DRAWherefore henceforth, we know no man according to the flesh. And if we have known Christ according to the flesh; but now we know him so no longer.

DrbySo that we henceforth know no one according to flesh; but if even we have known Christ according to flesh, yet now we know [him thus] no longer.

RVWherefore we henceforth know no man after the flesh: even though we have known Christ after the flesh, yet now we know him so no more.

SLTSo that we from now know none according to the flesh: and if also we have known Christ according to the flesh, but now we know no more.

WbstrWherefore henceforth we know no man according to the flesh: though indeed we have known Christ according to the flesh, yet now henceforth we know him no more.

KJB-1769Wherefore henceforth know we no man after the flesh: yea, though we have known Christ after the flesh, yet now henceforth know we him no more.

KJB-1611Wherefore hencefoorth know we no man, after the flesh: yea, though we haue knowen Christ after the flesh, yet now hencefoorth knowe wee him no more.

LuthDarum von nun an kennen wir niemand nach dem Fleisch; und ob wir auch Christum gekannt haben nach dem Fleisch, so kennen wir ihn doch jetzt nicht mehr.
   (Therefore from now at/to know we/us no_one after to_him flesh; and if/whether we/us also Christ known have after to_him flesh, so know we/us him/it though/but now/currently not more.)

ClVgItaque nos ex hoc neminem novimus secundum carnem. Et si cognovimus secundum carnem Christum, sed nunc jam non novimus.[fn]
   (Therefore us from this no_one we_know after/second the_flesh. And when/but_if we_knew after/second the_flesh Christ/Messiah, but now already not/no we_know.)
