Note: This view shows ‘verses’ which are not 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 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: figures-of-speech / explicitinfo

ἀνοίξας & Πέτρος τὸ στόμα εἶπεν

˓having˒_opened_up & Peter (Some words not found in SR-GNT: ἀνοίξας Δέ Πέτρος τό στόμα εἶπεν Ἐπʼ ἀληθείας καταλαμβάνομαι ὅτι οὐκ ἐστίν προσωπολήμπτης ὁ Θεός)

It might seem that the expression opening his mouth … said contains redundant information that would be unnatural to express in your language. If so, you could abbreviate it. Alternate translation: [Peter replied]

προσωπολήμπτης

˓a˒_favorer

Alternate translation: [one who shows favoritism]

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit

οὐκ ἔστιν προσωπολήμπτης ὁ Θεός

not (Some words not found in SR-GNT: ἀνοίξας Δέ Πέτρος τό στόμα εἶπεν Ἐπʼ ἀληθείας καταλαμβάνομαι ὅτι οὐκ ἐστίν προσωπολήμπτης ὁ Θεός)

As the next verse shows, Peter means implicitly that God does not favor Jewish people above people of other nations. If it would be helpful to your readers, you could state that explicitly. Alternate translation: [God does not favor Jewish people above people of other nations]
