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.

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / activepassive
περιτεμνομένῳ
˓being˒_circumcised
If your language does not use the passive form in this way, you could state this in active form or in another way that is natural in your language. Alternate translation: [who has someone circumcise him]
Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit
ὅλον τὸν νόμον ποιῆσαι
all the law ˓to˒_perform
Paul implies that a circumcised man must obey the whole law in order to be righteous. If it would be helpful in your language, you could state this explicitly. Alternate translation: [to do the whole law to become righteous]
Note 3 topic: grammar-collectivenouns
ὅλον τὸν νόμον
all the law
Here, law is a singular noun that refers to a group of laws that God gave Israel by dictating them to Moses. See how law is translated in [2:16](../02/16.md) and [Romans 2:12](../../rom/02/12.md). Alternate translation: [all of God’s laws]
