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.

For some languages it is more natural to begin a new sentence here. Do what is best in your language. Alternate translation: [and the Egyptians who were eating as his guests at their own table] or [They also served food to some Egyptian guests at a separate table]

Consider whether or not it is better in your language to begin a new sentence here. Also consider again how you translated Hebrews in the book of Genesis. See Gen 14:13, 39:14, 17; 40:15, 41:12; 43:32. Alternate translation: [Egyptians do not eat at the same table as Hebrew people, because they consider it detestable to do that] or [The servants did that, because Egyptians consider it unacceptable to eat with Hebrew people at the same table]
