GEN 8:8 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.

STRAB. Arca continet corvum et columbam, et Ecclesia bonos et malos. Corvus emissus non revertitur, quia reprobi illecebris sæculi inhærentes pereunt. Columba rediit, portans ramum olivæ virentibus foliis in ore suo, quia sancti, simplicitate gaudentes, munus pacis in ore portant, dicentes: Psal. 19 Cum his qui oderunt pacem eram pacificus: cum loquebar illis, etc.
