Note: This view shows ‘verses’ which are not natural language units and hence sometimes only part of a sentence will be visible. Normally the OET discourages the reading of individual ‘verses’, but this view is only designed for doing comparisons of different translations. Click on any Bible version abbreviation down the left-hand side to see the verse in more of its context. 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.

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / activepassive
συναρπασθέντος δὲ τοῦ πλοίου, καὶ μὴ δυναμένου ἀντοφθαλμεῖν τῷ ἀνέμῳ
/having_been/_seized and the ship and not being_able /to_be/_facing ˱to˲_the wind
If your language does not use this passive form, you could express the idea in active form or in another way that is natural in your language. Alternate translation: [when the wind seized the ship, so that we were not able to face into the wind]
Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / personification
συναρπασθέντος & τοῦ πλοίου, καὶ μὴ δυναμένου ἀντοφθαλμεῖν τῷ ἀνέμῳ
/having_been/_seized & the ship and not being_able /to_be/_facing ˱to˲_the wind
Luke is speaking of the wind as if it were a living thing that seized the ship. If it would be helpful in your language, you could state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: [with the wind blowing with such force that it kept the ship from sailing in the direction from which it was coming]
Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / metaphor
ἀντοφθαλμεῖν τῷ ἀνέμῳ
/to_be/_facing ˱to˲_the wind
Luke is speaking as if the ship literally had a face that it could turn towards the wind. Your language may have an expression that suits this context and that you can use in your translation. Alternate translation: [to bear up against the wind]
Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / activepassive
ἐφερόμεθα
˱we˲_/were_being/_driven_along
If your language does not use this passive form, you could express the idea in active form or in another way that is natural in your language. Alternate translation: [the wind drove us along]
