AMOS 6:3 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. Normally the OET discourages the reading of individual ‘verses’, but this view is only designed as a tool 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.

UTN uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / metaphor

(Occurrence 0) to those who put off the day of disaster

(Some words not found in UHB: the,put_off of,day evil and,bring_near, reign_of violence/cruelty )

Refusing to believe that Yahweh will cause disaster is spoken of as if the “day of disaster” were an object the people could put far from themselves. Alternate translation: “to those who refuse to believe that I will cause them to experience disaster”

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / metonymy

(Occurrence 0) and make the throne of violence come near

(Some words not found in UHB: the,put_off of,day evil and,bring_near, reign_of violence/cruelty )

Here “throne” is a metonym that represents reign or rule. Alternate translation: “but who are actually causing me to send violent people to destroy you”
