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 / you

General Information:

Moses continues to speak to the Israelites as if they were one man, so the words “you” and “your” here are singular.

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / synecdoche

(Occurrence 0) if your heart turns away … but instead are drawn away and bow down to other gods and worship them

(Some words not found in UHB: and=if turns_away heart_of,your and=not listen and,drawn_away and,bow_down to,gods other and,serve,them )

Here “heart” refers to the whole person. If your language does not use the passive form in this way, you can state this in active form or in another way that is natural in your language. Alternate translation: [if you stop being loyal to God … and the people living in the land convince you to bow down and worship other gods] (See also: figs-activepassive)
