GEN 39:3 Parallel Verse View

Note: This view shows ‘verses’ which are not necessarily natural language units and hence sometimes only part of a sentence will be visible—click on any Bible version abbreviation down the left-hand side to see the verse in more of its context. Normally the OET discourages the reading of individual ‘verses’, but this view is only designed as a tool for Bible-translators and others doing comparisons of different translations—the older translations are further down the page (so you can read up from the bottom to trace the English translation history). The OET segments on this page are still early looks into the drafted texts of the Open English Translation of the Bible—please double-check these texts in advance before using in public.

UTN uW Translation Notes:

וַ⁠יַּ֣רְא אֲדֹנָ֔י⁠ו כִּ֥י יְהוָ֖ה אִתּ֑⁠וֹ

(Some words not found in UHB: and=he/it_saw master(s)_of,his that/for/because/then/when YHWH with=him/it and=all/each/any/every which/who he/it producing YHWH prosper in=his/its=hand )

In verses 2 through 20, Potiphar is referred to as Joseph’s master (verses 2–3, 7–8, 16, 19–20) and “the Egyptian” (verse 5); he is no longer mentioned by his name in the Hebrew text. Some translations continue to use Potiphar’s name occasionally in verses 2 through 20 to prevent confusion and make it clear that all of these references refer to the same person, not two or three different people. See how you translated master or “owner” in Genesis 24:9–10.

וְ⁠כֹל֙ אֲשֶׁר־ה֣וּא עֹשֶׂ֔ה יְהוָ֖ה מַצְלִ֥יחַ בְּ⁠יָדֽ⁠וֹ

and=all/each/any/every (Some words not found in UHB: and=he/it_saw master(s)_of,his that/for/because/then/when YHWH with=him/it and=all/each/any/every which/who he/it producing YHWH prosper in=his/its=hand )

See how you translated successful in verse 2. Alternate translation: [and was helping Joseph to prosper in everything that he did] or [and was helping Joseph to do everything very well]
