DEU 18:14 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 / metonymy

הַ⁠גּוֹיִ֣ם

the=nations

Here, nations represents the people groups that live in those nations. If it would be helpful in your language, you could use an equivalent expression from your language or state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: [people]

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / doublet

אֶל־מְעֹנְנִ֥ים וְ⁠אֶל־קֹסְמִ֖ים

to/towards fortune-tellers and=near/to diviners

The terms sorcerers and diviners mean similar things. Moses is using the two terms together for emphasis. If it would be clearer for your readers, you could express the emphasis with a single phrase. Alternate translation: [to various sorcerers]

Note 3 topic: grammar-connect-logic-contrast

וְ⁠אַתָּ֕ה

and=you(ms)

Moses uses the word but here to indicate a strong contrast between what the other people groups do and what the Israelites must do. In your translation, indicate this strong contrast in a way that is natural in your language. Alternate translation: [you, on the other hand]
