GEN 44:12 Parallel Verse View

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.

Consider what is the best way to refer to Joseph’s servant in verses 6, 10 and 12. Also see how you translated searched in Gen 31:35.

in/on/at/with,oldest he/it_began and,in/on/at/with,youngest ending

Consider whether or not it is better in your language to begin a new sentence here. Alternate translation: [beginning with the oldest brother and finishing with the youngest one] or [He started with the oldest brother and continued until he came to the youngest one]
