ISA 1:22 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—click on any Bible version abbreviation down the left-hand side to see the verse in more of its context. Normally the OET discourages the reading of individual ‘verses’, but this view is only designed as a tool for Bible-translators and others doing comparisons of different translations—the older translations are further down the page (so you can read up from the bottom to trace the English translation history). The OET segments on this page are still early looks into the drafted texts of the Open English Translation of the Bible—please double-check these texts in advance before using in public.

כַּסְפֵּ֖⁠ךְ הָיָ֣ה לְ⁠סִיגִ֑ים

silver_of,your it_became (into),dross(es)

Isaiah is speaking as if the people of Jerusalem were silver that has degraded into dross or the scum of impurities. Your language may have a comparable expression that you can use in your translation, or you could state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: [You who were once pure have become corrupt]

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / metaphor

סָבְאֵ֖⁠ךְ מָה֥וּל בַּ⁠מָּֽיִם

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / activepassive

סָבְאֵ֖⁠ךְ מָה֥וּל בַּ⁠מָּֽיִם

drink_of,your diluted with,water

The expression diluted is a passive verbal form. If it would be unnatural to use that form, you could express the idea in active form or in another way that is natural in your language. Alternate translation: [someone has diluted your wine with water]

Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / ellipsis

סָבְאֵ֖⁠ךְ מָה֥וּל בַּ⁠מָּֽיִם
