GEN 7:6 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 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.

UTN uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: translate-numbers

וְ⁠נֹ֕חַ בֶּן־שֵׁ֥שׁ מֵא֖וֹת שָׁנָ֑ה

and=Noaḩ son_of six hundreds year

See how you handled large numbers in Genesis 5 and in Genesis [6:3](../6/3.md), and see the note about this at Genesis [5:35](../5/3.md). Also see how you translated the common expression “son of … years” in Genesis [5:32](../5/32.md). Alternate translation: [He was 600 years old]

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / infostructure

וְ⁠הַ⁠מַּבּ֣וּל הָיָ֔ה מַ֖יִם עַל־הָ⁠אָֽרֶץ

and,the,flood it_became waters on/upon/above/on_account_of//he/it_went_in the=earth/land

For some languages it may be more natural to put this clause first in this sentence and say, “When the flood waters came on the earth, Noah was 600 years old.” Do what is best in your language. Also, see how you translated floodwaters in Genesis [6:17](../6/17.md). Alternate translation: [when the earth was covered with deep water]
