GEN 5:6 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 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.

UTN uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: grammar-connect-time-background

וַֽ⁠יְחִי־שֵׁ֕ת חָמֵ֥שׁ שָׁנִ֖ים וּ⁠מְאַ֣ת שָׁנָ֑ה

and=he/it_lived Shet/Shēt five years and=one_hundred year

The events in verse 6 happened before Adam died (verse 5). So if you use a conjunction here, make sure your translation does not sound like verse 6 happened after Adam died. Alternate translation: “After Seth had lived 105 years,” or “After Seth was 105 years old,”

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit

וַ⁠יּ֖וֹלֶד אֶת אֱנֽוֹשׁ

and=he/it_fathered DOM ʼEnōsh

You could make it explicit in your translation or in a footnote that Enosh was a son. The same thing is true for the rest of the children whose births are mentioned in this chapter (who were all sons). Alternate translation: “he fathered a son named Enosh.” or “he had a son they named Enosh.” or “he had a son whose name was Enosh.”
