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: grammar-connect-logic-result

וַ⁠יָּ֣קָם

and=he/it_rose_up

Here the word And indicates that the sentence it introduces explains the results of what the previous sentences described. Alternate translation: [As a result]

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / idiom

וַ⁠יָּ֣קָם עֶזְרָ֡א

and=he/it_rose_up ˊEzrāʼ

Here also, arose means “took action to get an enterprise under way.” It could also mean to physically arise, since Ezra had been lying prostrate on the ground. Alternate translation: [So Ezra got up, took initiative,]

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / metonymy

וְ⁠כָל־יִשְׂרָאֵ֗ל

and=all Yisrael

Here the book refers to the Israelites by the name of their nation. Alternate translation: [all of the Israelites]

Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / hyperbole

וְ⁠כָל־יִשְׂרָאֵ֗ל

and=all Yisrael

Here, all Israel is an exaggeration that is meant to express the idea that Ezra made every Israelite who was there swear an oath. If this is not clear in your language, you can state it without the exaggeration. Alternate translation: [and every Israelite who was there]

Note 5 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit

לַ⁠עֲשׂ֛וֹת כַּ⁠דָּבָ֥ר הַ⁠זֶּ֖ה

for=doing according_to_the,said the=this

The implication in context is that this word refers to Shekaniah’s recommendation that the Jews send away all the foreign wives and their children. If it would be helpful to your readers, you could say that explicitly. Alternate translation: [to do what Shekaniah had recommended and make the Israelites send away all the foreign wives and their children]
