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 / metaphor
A heavy yoke is a metaphor for very difficult labor and cruel treatment. This metaphor is continued in this verses. See how you translated a similar phrase in 2 Chronicles 10:4.
Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / metaphor
(Occurrence 0) I will add to your yoke
(Some words not found in UHB: and=now father,my laid on,you_all yoke heavy and,I add on/upon yoke,your_all's father,my disciplined DOM,you_all in/on/at/with,whips and,I in/on/at/with,scorpions )
“I will make your yoke heavier.” A yoke is a metaphor for labor. Alternate translation: “I will force you to work harder”
Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / metaphor
(Occurrence 0) I will punish you with scorpions
(Some words not found in UHB: and=now father,my laid on,you_all yoke heavy and,I add on/upon yoke,your_all's father,my disciplined DOM,you_all in/on/at/with,whips and,I in/on/at/with,scorpions )
Possible meanings are that: (1) “scorpions” is a metaphor for any kind of painful punishment. Alternate translation: “I will punish you much more harshly” or (2) “scorpions” is a metaphor for whips with sharp metal barbs at the end. Alternate translation: “I will punish you with whips that have sharp pieces of metal at the ends”
