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.

BrLXX Καὶ τότε εἶδον ἀσεβεῖς εἰς τάφους εἰσαχθέντας, καὶ ἐκ τοῦ ἁγίου· καὶ ἐπορεύθησαν καὶ ἐπῃνέθησαν ἐν τῇ πόλει, ὅτι οὕτως ἐποίησαν· καί γε τοῦτο ματαιότης.
(Kai tote eidon asebeis eis tafous eisaⱪthentas, kai ek tou hagiou; kai eporeuthaʸsan kai epaʸnethaʸsan en taʸ polei, hoti houtōs epoiaʸsan; kai ge touto mataiotaʸs. )
BrTr And then I saw the ungodly carried into the tombs, and that out of the holy place: and they departed, and were praised in the city, because they had done thus: this also is vanity.
ULT And then, I saw wicked people buried, and they went out, and from a holy place they walked. And they will be forgotten in the city where thus they had done.
⇔ This also is vapor:
UST I also saw that sometimes after evil people die, they are highly honored at their funerals by the people in the cities where they had done evil deeds. It was difficult to understand why that happens.
BSB § Then too, I saw the burial of the wicked who used to go in and out of the holy place, and they were praised [fn] in the city where they had done so. This too is futile.
8:10 Some Hebrew manuscripts, LXX, and Vulgate; most Hebrew manuscripts were soon forgotten

⇔ and as they left the holy temple, they

8:10 The Hebrew simply says “the wicked were buried,” but since this is unremarkable it is understood that they were buried with much show and ceremony.
8:10 The Hebrew text is unclear. “Holy place” would refer to the Temple or the synagogue.
T4T I also saw that sometimes after evil people die, they are highly honored at their funerals by the people in the cities where they had done evil deeds. It seemed to be difficult to understand why that happens.
LEB Meanwhile, I saw the wicked being honorably buried, but those who came and went from the holy place were forgotten in the city, even though they had done so. This also is vanity!
¶
BBE And then I saw evil men put to rest, taken even from the holy place; and they went about and were praised in the town because of what they had done. This again is to no purpose.
