GEN 8:22 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:

עֹ֖ד כָּל יְמֵ֣י הָ⁠אָ֑רֶץ

as_long_as all/each/any/every days_of the=earth/land

Alternate translation: “As long as the earth still lasts,”

זֶ֡רַע

Alternate translation: “and harvest time” or “the time for gathering crops”

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / parallelism

וְ⁠קֹ֨ר וָ⁠חֹ֜ם

and,cold and,heat

These terms form a parallelism with summer and winter. If possible, it is best to keep both parts of the parallelism in your translation since each part has a different emphasis. Alternate translation: “cold season and hot season,”

וְ⁠קַ֧יִץ וָ⁠חֹ֛רֶף

and,summer and,winter

The seasons of summer and winter may be described differently depending on which part of the world your language area is located in. For example, some translations might use the terms “dry season” and “rainy/wet season,” depending on what best corresponds to summer and winter in that area.

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / infostructure

לֹ֥א יִשְׁבֹּֽתוּ

not cease

It may be more natural to change the order of this sentence and say, “As long as the earth exists, each year there will always be a season/time to plant seeds and a season/time to harvest crops, as well as cold weather and hot weather, winter and summer, and day and night.” Do what is best in your language. Alternate translation: “will never stop.” or “will always continue to occur each year.”
