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:

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / doublet

(Occurrence 0) Jacob, and Israel

(Some words not found in UHB: listen to=me Yaˊₐqoⱱ/(Jacob) and,Israel called,I I he/it I first also/though I last )

Both of these refer to the people of Israel. (See also: figs-metonymy)

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / merism

(Occurrence 0) I am the first, I also am the last

(Some words not found in UHB: listen to=me Yaˊₐqoⱱ/(Jacob) and,Israel called,I I he/it I first also/though I last )

This phrase emphasizes Yahweh’s eternal nature. This could mean: (1) “I am the one who began all things, and I am the one who ends all things” or (2) “I am the one who has always lived, and I am the one who always will live.” See how you translated a similar phrase in Isaiah 44:6.
