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) He placed the priests in their positions

(Some words not found in UHB: and,appointed the,priests on/upon/above/on_account_of//he/it_went_in offices_of,their and,encouraged,them in,service_of house_of YHWH )

Placing the priests in a position is a metaphor for telling the priests which jobs they are to do. The reader should probably understand that Josiah commanded his officials to give instructions to the priests. Alternate translation: “He had people tell the priests which jobs to do” (See also: figs-metonymy)

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / abstractnouns

(Occurrence 0) in the service of

(Some words not found in UHB: and,appointed the,priests on/upon/above/on_account_of//he/it_went_in offices_of,their and,encouraged,them in,service_of house_of YHWH )

If your language does not use an abstract noun for the idea behind the word service, you can express the same idea with a verbal form. Alternate translation: “as they served in” or “to serve well in”
