ACTs 2:18 Parallel Verse View

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.

Text critical issues=small word differences Clarity of original=clear Importance to us=normal (All still tentative.)

Note: Automatic aligning of the OET-RV to the LV is done by some temporary software, hence the RV alignments are incomplete (and may occasionally be wrong).

UTN uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / quotations

καί γε ἐπὶ τοὺς δούλους μου, καὶ ἐπὶ τὰς δούλας μου, ἐν ταῖς ἡμέραις ἐκείναις ἐκχεῶ ἀπὸ τοῦ Πνεύματός μου, καὶ προφητεύσουσιν

and and and (Some words not found in SR-GNT: καί γέ ἐπί τούς δούλους μού καί ἐπί τάς δούλας μού ἐν ταῖς ἡμέραις ἐκείναις ἐκχεῶ ἀπό τοῦ Πνεύματος μού καί προφητεύσουσιν)

You may have decided to turn Peter’s quotation from Joel into an indirect quotation in order to avoid having a second-level quotation. Alternate translation: [God said that even on his male servants and on his female servants in those days he would pour out from his Spirit, and they would prophesy]

ἐπὶ τοὺς δούλους μου, καὶ ἐπὶ τὰς δούλας μου

(Some words not found in SR-GNT: καί γέ ἐπί τούς δούλους μού καί ἐπί τάς δούλας μού ἐν ταῖς ἡμέραις ἐκείναις ἐκχεῶ ἀπό τοῦ Πνεύματος μού καί προφητεύσουσιν)

If your language has masculine and feminine forms of the word “servant,” it would be accurate to use those forms here. Other languages can indicate this distinction in other ways, as ULT does with the adjectives “male” and “female.”

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / idiom

ἐν ταῖς ἡμέραις ἐκείναις

in ¬the days those

Here, days means a specific time. Alternate translation: [at that time]

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / metaphor

ἐπὶ & ἐπὶ & ἐκχεῶ ἀπὸ τοῦ Πνεύματός μου

See how you translated this in [2:17](../02/17.md). Alternate translation: [to … to … I will give my Spirit abundantly]
