Normally the OET discourages the reading of individual ‘verses’, but this view is only designed for doing comparisons of different translations.

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.

TSNTyndale Study Notes:

37:21-24 Reuben was perhaps trying to get back into his father’s good graces (35:22) by exercising the leadership of the firstborn (cp. 42:22). Reuben succeeded in saving Joseph’s life, but he failed to earn his father’s favor (37:29-30).


UTNuW Translation Notes:

וַ⁠יִּ֨קָּחֻ֔⁠הוּ

and,took,him

If the phrase “grabbed/took hold of him” is made explicit in your translation in verse 23, it can be left implied here in verse 24.

וַ⁠יַּשְׁלִ֥כוּ אֹת֖⁠וֹ הַ⁠בֹּ֑רָ⁠ה

and,threw DOM=him/it the,pit,into

See how you translated “throw him” and cistern in verse 20. Alternate translation: “and put him into the well.”

וְ⁠הַ⁠בּ֣וֹר רֵ֔ק אֵ֥ין בּ֖⁠וֹ מָֽיִם

and,the,pit empty not in/on/over=him/it water

Alternate translation: “Now the well was empty; it had no water in it.” or “The well was empty and completely dry inside.”
