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.

Ostensa efficacia orationis, ostendit quanti sit meriti pro fratribus orare, et ad sospitatem revocare, ut qui in superiori parte a lingua nostra malignam et otiosam locutionem removit, in fine Epistolæ quid loqui debeamus, ostenderet. Oremus, et psallamus, quoties adversis pulsamur, peccata confiteamur, pro invicem oremus ut salvemur: pro salute proximorum non solum temporali, sed potius æterna. Si enim magnæ mercedis est a morte eripere corpus quandoque moriturum, quanti meriti est a morte animam liberare in cœlesti patria sine fine victuram?

TSNTyndale Study Notes:

5:19-20 These verses end the letter as a bookend (inclusio) counterbalancing the exhortation to endurance in 1:2-4.


UTNuW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / metaphor

ἀδελφοί μου

brothers ˱of˲_me

See how you translated the term brothers in 1:2. Alternate translation: [My fellow believers]

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / metaphor

ἐάν τις ἐν ὑμῖν πλανηθῇ ἀπὸ τῆς ἀληθείας

if anyone among you_all /may_be/_strayed from the truth

As in 1:16, James is speaking as if a deceptive guide may have led one of his readers in the wrong direction. Alternate translation: [if anyone among you may have been deceived regarding the truth]

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / activepassive

ἐάν τις ἐν ὑμῖν πλανηθῇ ἀπὸ τῆς ἀληθείας

if anyone among you_all /may_be/_strayed from the truth

If your language does not use this passive form, you can express this with an active form. Alternate translation: [if someone may have deceived anyone among you regarding the truth]

Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / abstractnouns

τῆς ἀληθείας

the truth

If it would be helpful in your language, you could express the idea behind the abstract noun truth with an adjective such as “true.” Alternate translation: [what is true]

Note 5 topic: figures-of-speech / metaphor

ἐπιστρέψῃ τις αὐτόν

/may/_turn_back someone him

James is continuing the metaphor of someone guiding a person in the right direction. Alternate translation: [someone corrects him] or [someone shows him what is actually true]
