HEB 3:11 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.

3:11 “Rest.” This concept is developed more in chapter 4 and is related to the Sabbath, the Promised Land, and God's invitation to come to him. While it is not the easiest of phrases, “entering rest” is perhaps the best translation since it retains the basis which is to be developed later, and includes all the various allusions. The quotation is fromPsalms 95:7-11.

UTN uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: grammar-connect-words-phrases

ὡς

Here, the word As could introduce: (1) a result from what the ancestors did. Alternate translation: [So] or [Therefore,] (2) a reason why the people will not enter into my rest. If you choose this option, you may need to include some implied information about how the ancestors did not enter the rest. Alternate translation: [They did not enter the land that I had promised, just as]

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / abstractnouns

ἐν τῇ ὀργῇ μου

in the wrath ˱of˲_me

If your language does not use an abstract noun for the idea of wrath, you could express the idea by using an adjective such as “wrathful” or “angry.” Alternate translation: [when I was wrathful] or [angrily]

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / quotesinquotes

ὤμοσα ἐν τῇ ὀργῇ μου, εἰ εἰσελεύσονται εἰς τὴν κατάπαυσίν μου.

˱I˲_swore in the wrath ˱of˲_me never ˱they˲_/will_be/_coming_in into the rest ˱of˲_me

If it would be helpful in your language, you could translate this direct quotation as an indirect quotation. Alternate translation: [I swore in my wrath that … if they will enter into my rest!]

Note 4 topic: grammar-connect-condition-contrary

εἰ εἰσελεύσονται εἰς τὴν κατάπαυσίν μου

never ˱they˲_/will_be/_coming_in into the rest ˱of˲_me

Here God uses the word If to introduce a statement that he knows will not be true. What the form means is that they will definitely not enter into my rest. If it would be helpful in your language, you could express the idea with a strong negation. Alternate translation: [They will never enter into my rest!]

Note 5 topic: writing-oathformula

εἰ εἰσελεύσονται εἰς τὴν κατάπαυσίν μου

never ˱they˲_/will_be/_coming_in into the rest ˱of˲_me

The phrase If they will enter my rest is an oath formula. This kind of oath does not complete the condition, but it implies that something bad will happen to the speaker if the condition actually happens. Use a natural way in your language to express an oath. Alternate translation: [I will be accursed if they will enter into my rest!] or [I swear that they will never enter into my rest!]

Note 6 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit

εἰσελεύσονται εἰς τὴν κατάπαυσίν μου

˱they˲_/will_be/_coming_in into the rest ˱of˲_me

Here, the word rest could refer to: (1) the state of “resting.” Alternate translation: [they will participate in the way that I rest] or [they will rest with me] (2) the place where people rest, particularly the land that God promised to give to his people. Alternate translation: [they will enter into my resting place] or [they will enter into the land of rest]
