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.

and=he/it_sat_down//remained//lived Yaakob

Chapter 37 continues the history about Jacob that left off at the end of chapter 35. Begin this chapter in a way that is natural in your language. Make sure the way you translate lived allows for the fact that Jacob was already living in Canaan and had settled near the city of Hebron, where his father and grandfather had lived previously (Gen 35:27). Alternate translation: [Now Jacob was still living]

בְּ⁠אֶ֖רֶץ מְגוּרֵ֣י אָבִ֑י⁠ו בְּ⁠אֶ֖רֶץ כְּנָֽעַן

in=land where_~_hadstayed_of his/its=father in=land Kinaˊan

See how you translated “sojourned” in Gen 35:27 and the land of Canaan in Gen 35:6. Alternate translation: [in the land of Canaan where his father Isaac had lived for a while as a outsider]
