ISA 8:16 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 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 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.

Text critical issues=none Clarity of original=clear Importance to us=normal (All still tentative.)

UTN uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / parallelism

(Occurrence 0) Bind up my testimony, seal the official record

(Some words not found in UHB: bind_up transcript seal teaching among,my_of,disciples )

These two phrases mean basically the same thing. Alternate translation: “Close up tightly the scroll with this message written on it”

(Occurrence 0) my testimony … my disciples

(Some words not found in UHB: bind_up transcript seal teaching among,my_of,disciples )

It is unclear to whom the word “my” refers. It could be Isaiah or Yahweh. It is best to leave the pronouns ambiguous if your language will allow it.
